This study investigates the therapeutic potential of Aranyatulasyadi Tailam, a traditional Ayurvedic oil, known for its dermo-protective properties. The oil has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine, and its efficacy in promoting skin health has gained attention in recent years. To elucidate the bioactive components responsible for its pharmacological effects, the chemical profile of Aranyatulasyadi Tailam was analyzed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). The analysis revealed the presence of several bioactive constituents, including 6-hepten-3-one, 5-hydroxy-4-methyl, heptadecanoic acid 3-oxo-methyl ester, and tricosanoic acid. These compounds are known for their diverse therapeutic properties, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and skin-healing effects. The identification of these key constituents suggests that Aranyatulasyadi Tailam possesses significant pharmacological potential, which could contribute to its dermo-protective actions. The study underscores the importance of further research to explore the specific mechanisms through which these bioactive compounds exert their effects on skin health. In addition, clinical trials are necessary to establish the oil’s safety and efficacy in treating various dermatological conditions. Overall, this study provides a scientific basis for the traditional use of Aranyatulasyadi Tailam and highlights its promise as a natural therapeutic agent with potent pharmacological effects, offering a potential alternative in modern dermatology.
