🔹 SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE & REFERENCES

Research studies have explored Pongamia pinnata for its bioactive plant compounds such as flavonoids and karanjin, which have been studied for antioxidant activity and plant-based wellness support.¹

Laboratory research indicates plant extracts of this tree have been explored for skin hygiene support and microbial balance in cosmetic and hygiene formulations.²

Other experimental studies evaluated the bark and seed extracts for their potential role in supporting metabolic and antioxidant parameters in animal models.³

These findings align with Ayurveda’s long history of using Karanja as a plant associated with purification and natural balance. Individual results may vary based on constitution and usage.
