PRIOR ART
The process of making seamless soft capsules of gelatine (herein referred to as SOFTGEL CAPSULES) is well known in the industry. Softgel capsules filled with CLA are well known and sold freely in the West. However, there is no product anywhere in the world wherein ayurvedic ingredients in the form of oil based herbal extracts are blended with CLA for making any product and particularly softgel capsules.
CLA: Discovered in 1978, it was only in 1996 that it was made commercially available by making it from Safflower seeds/oil. It is a naturally found fatty acid in dairy products like milk. Early studies showed that there is a fat loss with 3.4 g/day dosage. However the muscle mass increased so the weight loss results were mixed. It is now being extensive researched in anti-cancer and diabetes area.
Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis): is a small perennial plant with resetted long fleshy leaves containing sticky juice. The leaf juice forms the source of the ayurvedic medicine "kumari". Aloe is a skin tonic and helps to keep up the bowel movement

Commiphora wightii is a shrub with spiny branches. Its ash coloured bark flakes off and the underbark peels off in thin papery rolls. The gum resin from the bark contains the ayurvedic medicine called guggul. This herb has been proved for reducing triglycerides and cholesterol.
Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) is an erect, evergreen, tomentose shrub. It has been described as the ginseng of India. It is a general tonic of the central nervous system It keeps up the sexual function. Several studies over the past few years have indicated that ashwagandha has anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antistress, antioxidant, mind-boosting, and rejuvenating properties.
