Protein is one of the building blocks of bone, muscle, and skin. The body needs it to produce hormones, enzymes, and other chemicals. Eating protein-rich foods and taking supplements may help people feel fuller for longer. Feeling full tends to result in smaller portion sizes and less frequent snacking, which can help a person maintain a healthy weight. Due to a hectic lifestyle and poor eating habits, many of us may be lacking the required protein in our everyday diet. Renatus XanthPro is a unique protein supplement formulated with highly essential Vitamins & Minerals to give your body a fulfilling nutritional boost. The primary ingredient of this protein powder is Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana)- a rich source of one of the rarest and most beneficial antioxidant families known as Xanthones. Xanthones have a broad spectrum of therapeutic properties such as- anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral activities. It is a low-fat composition that helps in weight management. It also contains prebiotic fibre and probiotics that enhance digestion and aid in faster absorption. It protects the body from free radical damage while boosting the energy levels and recovery. It also helps to maintain a healthy blood sugar level and increase the count of white Blood Cells (WBCs) in the blood. It is enriched with immunity-enhancing herbs that make it a better choice for complete wellness. These herbs are of ancient origin and are researched till date to extract more valuable properties in order to enhance human well-being. This review addresses the therapeutic importance of five such medicinal herbs which are an important composition of Xanthpro Protein powder. The inscribed herbs are Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus), Aloe-Vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) and Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica). Pharmacological experiments have demonstrated that different extracts and pure compounds from these species exhibit a broad range of biological properties. Therefore, the use of these herbal supplements in XanthPro, makes the protein powder to be used more reliably and widely. Overall, it gives our body nourishment as well as protection. It is not just a protein supplement, but is a volutionary step towards a healthy nation.

The roots of the plant Asparagus racemosus (Wild) (family: Liliaceae) are used alone as a lactogenic and general tonic or incorporated as a major ingredient in many herbal and Ayurveda formulations. Shatavarin glycosides containing sarsasapogenin as aglycone were found bioactive, and present in predominantly higher amount. The experiments were planned to develop an analytical method for estimation of total sarsasapogenin from the extract using HPTLC, through a systematic approach after identifying the potential failure modes, termed as critical process parameters to achieve the analytical target profile. The associated risks were mitigated by studying the combined effect of the critical process parameters on area, Rf, and tailing factor corresponding to the sarsasapogenin peak, assigned as critical method attributes. The optimization studies were carried out through Design of Experiment approach and process parameters were finalized to achieve analytical target profile. The developed method could resolve the peak of sarsasapogenin from the hydrolyzed methanolic extract prepared from the root powder using silica gel-backed pre-coated aluminum plates. The optimized mobile phase was Hexane:Ethyl acetate:Formic acid (7.0:1.9:0.35, v/v/v); the plates were subjected to post-chromatographic derivatization using 5% v/v hydrochloric acid solution, and heating of the plats for 3 min at 110˚C. The chromatogram was recorded by scanning the plates in TLC scanner using fluorescence mode at 366 nm. The developed analytical method was found to yield linear response in the range of 40-280 ng/spot. The limit of quantification was determined to be 35.88 ng/spot. The method was found selective, accurate, and robust. The amount of sarsasapogenin was found to be determined using the developed method and found to be 2.31% w/w on dried weight basis from the dried root powder. This is the first report of a systematic approach in estimating sarsasapogenin from Asparagus sp.
