"The response we have received so far is a testament to the increasing awareness and acceptance of Ayurveda in our daily lives. Every individual who takes part in the Prakriti Parikshan and embraces a personalised health approach is contributing to building a healthier India. This is just the beginning and together, we will transform the nation's health for generations to come."
