👉 Acharyas are well aware of the toxic effects of minerals and metals if used internally therefore they invented intensive and elaborate processing like purification(Shodhan), maran, bhavna, jaran and bhasmikaran using different
herbs, instruments, procedures, temperature and pressure. 🙏
👉 These processing remove physical, chemical and toxic impurities from them. 👍

Even western medicine also try to use them for treatment but failed as they do not use purification procedures as mentioned and used in Ayurveda. 🌷
