The trust on Ayurveda: What users say about Dant Kanti toothpaste
In an age of chemically laden personal products and artificial ingredients, humans are going back to Ayurveda , nature's ancient present to the realm of holistic wellness. Among such Ayurveda-based products is Patanjali's Dant Kanti toothpaste. Based on herbal extracts of neem, clove, babool, and mint, Dant Kanti promises not just oral health but dental well-being in the long run on the basis of natural care. But how is it in real life? Here's what five regular users have to say about their experience with Dant Kanti. Asha Negi, 34, Noida Asha, a working mother, had been experiencing bleeding gums and sensitivity for long. She tried numerous toothpaste brands to no avail before she changed to Dant Kanti on a friend's recommendation. "After a week, the bleeding has reduced and my gums feel firmer. There is no discomfort when brushing. Although the taste takes sometime to get used to." Ramesh, 52, Delhi Dant Kanti was a return to the Ayurvedic ways of his childhood for Ramesh. "I used herbal powders and neem sticks in my childhood, but like all of us, I shifted to branded ones later. Dant Kanti reminded me how simple and efficient nature's care is. My plaque has reduced, and my mouth is fresh for a longer period.

"I wasn't optimistic when I bought Dant Kanti, but the sensitivity reduced within ten days. I prefer it because it has natural ingredients without too many chemicals." Heera, 48, Delhi Mrs. Sharma had tried different brands of toothpaste and was typically disappointed with their fleeting benefits. 'Most pastes give the feel of good brushing but do nothing long term. In Dant Kanti, I felt cleaner teeth and fresh breath even after meals. It eased small aches and swelling too.' Radhika Kumari, 42, Delhi Radhika, looking for a gentle remedy following dental surgery, discovered that Dant Kanti was the ideal solution for her. "I needed something mild yet effective, and Dant Kanti turned out to be the best. It did not cause any irritation to my teeth or gums and even curbed bad breath. It is great to see Ayurveda being helpful generation after generation." What's the hubbub about Dant Kanti? The mounting faith in Dant Kanti is part of a larger movement towards Ayurveda-based daily care. It's not just about tooth brushing; it's about creating oral health naturally, consistently, and without harmful side effects.

Delhi to host global Ayurveda summit, support start-ups: CM Rekha Gupta
Delhi government is planning to host a global Ayurveda summit and provide support to start-ups focused on the age-old Indian medicinal system, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said on Thursday. Addressing the All India Ayurvedic Congress here, Gupta said the way Ayurveda is getting popular at the global level, other countries look up to India for more information and the availability of Ayurvedic medicines. "I thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi for setting up the Ayush ministry and providing a bigger platform to Ayurveda and other related medicinal systems by formulating policies," she said. Setting up the All India Institute of Ayurveda in Delhi on the lines of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences is a big milestone, she said. "We should organise a global Ayurveda summit in Delhi that will be supported by the government. We can present the Ayurvedic system before the people from across the world at the summit," she said in his address to experts in the field of Ayurveda. She said the summit would provide an opportunity for experts and academicians associated with the Ayurvedic system to discuss new initiatives and innovations in the traditional medicinal system. She said the Delhi government plans to roll out various initiatives like sponsoring Ayurveda-based start-ups to encourage youngsters to work in this field, while promoting yoga gurus and experts to work on innovations. She also suggested the digitisation of all Ayurveda texts and knowledge. Delhi government runs 197 Ayush Centres across the city where Ayurvedic medicines are provided to people. These include 55 Ayurveda, 25 Unani and 117 homoeopathy dispensaries. Besides, there are three medical colleges and four hospitals that follow the Ayurvedic system, Gupta said. In the budget 2025-26, the Delhi government has allocated ₹275 crore for developing alternative medicinal systems, including ₹100 crore for Ayush, she added. Talking to the reporters on the sidelines of the event, the chief minister said Modi has taken several steps to make Ayurveda available to everyone in the country and to popularise it across the world. "We will plan a global summit on Ayurveda," she said. People tired of allopathy are returning to Ayurveda as it provides a holistic cure for diseases. It is the responsibility of the government to make Ayurveda, homoeopathy and other such medicinal systems accessible to people, she added.

India's retail industry may gain as Trump's tariffs singe Chinese exports
iStock To seize the opportunity, India needs to reposition itself as a strategic retail partner by investing in automation, packaging technology, and quality assurance, say experts and stakeholders. Trump's tariffs: If the 90-day tariff pause continues, experts and industry stakeholders believe that India could capitalise on the opportunity to boost its FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) and retail exports to the US, especially given a higher tax on China (145%). However, the current US tariff policy is creating pressure on the retail sector, both in India and globally, they said.'The industries such as spice, tea, and cosmetics could be more impacted because tariff rates will increase their cost in the US market, and consumers may shift focus to other alternatives,' says Chaudhary Dev Pratap Singh, Founder of FMCG company Univision advises India to swiftly leverage the 90-day tariff pause by boosting its exports, securing favourable trade terms, and solidifying its position as a reliable alternative to China in global supply chains. 'To turn this temporary window into lasting trade advantages, a focused approach involving strategic diplomacy and close coordination between industry and government will be essential,' says Saxena, CEO & Founder of kitchen appliance and cookware brand Wonderchef, agrees with Singh. 'India has a timely opportunity to boost its retail exports to the US. But this window is limited to specific products that meet high-quality standards, says Saxena.'The US market will look to de-risk its overdependence on China, and India must step in to fill that vacuum in categories like packaged foods, wellness products, Ayurveda-based personal care, and spices—areas where we already have global recognition. But scale and consistency are still weak spots. The US buyers demand uninterrupted supply and adherence to the highest global standards—something we must strengthen rapidly,' adds Saxena. For context, retail exports from India to the US reached $76,167 million in FY22, nearly $78,542 million in FY23, and nearly $77,515 million in FY24, according to the government to reposition as a strategic retail partnerTo seize the opportunity, India needs to reposition itself as a strategic retail partner by investing in automation, packaging technology, and quality assurance, say experts and the regulatory framework is also crucial to eliminating delays. With the tariff pause being temporary, swift action in high-potential categories like organic food, ready-to-eat meals, and plant-based products can help India boost exports and establish a lasting presence in the US retail market, says Saxena. 'This window also allows India to strengthen its case for favourable bilateral trade terms and enhances domestic manufacturing competitiveness. Additionally, it offers a chance to diversify export destinations, reducing over-reliance on any single market. However, this short timeframe may drive up freight costs, impacting profit margins, and the temporary nature of the pause adds planning uncertainty. Furthermore, India will face intensified competition from other countries also seeking to leverage the US-China trade dynamics,' says Kanishk Maheshwari, Co-founder & Managing Director, Primus Partners. Maheshwari notes that Indian exporters may recover faster and gain market share due to the higher tariffs on China, potentially giving India a competitive edge. 'With several key free trade agreements (FTAs) on the horizon and the possibility of a bilateral trade deal with the US, India is poised to emerge stronger and more globally integrated despite the initial hurdles,' adds Maheshwari.
