What are Some Popular Herbal Extracts in India?
Herbs and plants have been used for centuries to deal with common ailments with traditional Indian medicine. India is known to have one of the world’s richest plant heritages. Today, people prefer herbs and plants, sometimes even over modern medicine. Herbal extracts and phytomedicines are projected to grow quicker than any other plant extract segment, driven by the development of the pharma industry and healthy eating trends.
Why are Herbal Extracts Popular?

The concentrated extracts are extremely potent, so a tiny bit goes a long way. Further, herbal remedies give buyers more choices, one can buy the whole herb, or take the capsules, tablets, infusion, syrup, or tonic as per their requirement.
