Arthogrit Ayurveda and Unique Sangam of Modern Science- Acharya Balakrishna
Acharya Balakrishna, the head of Patanjali Yogpeeth, said, “In today’s time, knee pain and arthritis are a common problem in the elderly. Modern medical practices only suppress symptoms, but Ayurveda targets the root cause of disease. Orthogrit is a unique confluence of Ayurveda and modern science, which has the ability to eliminate complex disease like arthritis.”

Patanjali claims that the orthogrit includes natural herbs such as Vacha, Motha, Daruhldi, Pippalamool, Ashwagandha, Nirgundi and Punarnava, which is considered effective in treating joint pain and inflammation in ancient Ayurvedic texts.
Diseases like arthritis affect crores of people- scientists
Dr. Anurag Varshney, senior scientist at Patanjali Research Institute, said that arthritis is a chronic disease that affects crores of people around the world. In this research, 3D spheroids of human cartilage cells and C. ELEGANS (a model organism) were studied. The study found that orthogrit protected human cartilage cells from the harmful effects of inflammation, reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reduced the levels of inflammatory markers such as IL-6, PEG-2, IL-1β.
Also, it was also successful in controlling gene expression of genes like Jak2, Cox2, MMP1, MMP3, and Adamts-4. In the study conducted on C. Elegans, the orthogrit extended the lifetime of these organisms, improved their dynamics and control the expression of inflammatory genes such as PMK-1, SEK-1, and CED-3.
Patanjali said, “This research proves that orthogrit not only reduces the symptoms of arthritis, but is also effective in preventing the progression of the disease.” This achievement creates a bridge between Ayurveda and modern science, which has brought new hope for people suffering from arthritis. This research of Patanjali further strengthens the scientific recognition of Ayurveda not only in India but also in the world. ”
