Abstract

Herbal medicine is the use of plants to treat disease and enhance general health and wellbeing. Herbs are crucial for medicine as natural sources of therapeutic compounds, offering holistic treatments, fewer side effects, and supporting modern drug discovery, treating conditions from inflammation and heart issues to boosting immunity. These herbs which are barks, stems etc need to pulverize to a powder form for consumption. The grinding of medicinal herbs is a critical preprocessing step that influences the extraction efficiency, bioavailability, and stability of active medical. This laboratory trails and study investigate the performance of size-reduction methods choppers and hammers-based milling on commonly processed herbs such as Ashwagandha, Arjuna, Karakkaya, Athimadhura. Particle-size distributions, time taken for pulverizing, retentions were analysed to evaluate the relationship between grinding mechanisms and product quality.
