Trivrit Lehyam is a classical Ayurvedic food supplement from Art of Vedas. This page sets out what it is, the classical tradition it belongs to, its ingredients, and the pesticide, heavy-metal and microbiological test results recorded for every batch.
What Trivrit Lehyam is
Trivrit Lehyam is a classical Ayurvedic food supplement, offered by Art of Vedas. It is a lehyam - a traditional herbal electuary - built on Operculina turpethum (Trivrit), combined with the classical spices in a base of ghee, honey and sugar. It is made in India under Good Manufacturing Practice, and the ingredients are reviewed against EU food law.
Because it contains ghee and honey, Trivrit Lehyam is not vegan, and it contains milk (from ghee). The recommended intake is shown on the pack. As with any food supplement, it is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet, and it is taken as advised by a qualified practitioner.
Trivrit Lehyam in classical Ayurveda
Trivrit Lehyam, built on the classical herb Trivrit (Operculina turpethum), belongs to the lehyam (electuary) tradition of the classical Ayurvedic literature (Sahasrayogam).
Art of Vedas presents its preparation within that classical frame, describing the tradition rather than any outcome, with an ingredient list reviewed against EU food law, and tests it with every batch.
Quality and testing
Tested with every batch
Every production batch is tested before release: pesticide residues against EU food limits, heavy metals by ICP-MS, and microbiological safety. The results below are representative; every batch is retested before release.
Heavy metals
Four heavy metals were tested by ICP-MS, each within the maximum level set for food under EU law (Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915).
| Metal | Result | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Lead (Pb) | Within the permitted limit | EU food maximum |
| Cadmium (Cd) | Within the permitted limit | EU food maximum |
| Mercury (Hg) | Within the permitted limit | EU food maximum |
| Arsenic (As, inorganic) | Within the permitted limit | EU food maximum |
ICP-MS is inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Limits are the EU maxima for foodstuffs under Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915.
Pesticide residues
Pesticide residues are tested and are within the maximum residue levels (MRLs) set for food under EU law (Regulation (EC) No 396/2005). Testing covers the pesticide groups relevant to dried botanical ingredients.
Maximum residue levels for foods of plant origin are set under Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. Every batch is tested before release.
Microbiological safety
Microbiological safety is tested to the criteria applied to food supplements. Overall counts stay within limits and the specified pathogens were each absent.
| Test | Result |
|---|---|
| Total Aerobic Microbial Count | Within the limit |
| Yeasts and Moulds | Within the limit |
| Escherichia coli (E. coli) | Absent (not found) |
| Salmonella (per 25 g) | Absent (not found) |
| Staphylococcus aureus | Absent (not found) |
Microbiological criteria for food supplements apply. Every batch is tested before release.
