Himalaya began its journey at a time when herbal products were regarded with skepticism. But, our founder persevered to follow his dreams. Pawning his mother’s bangles, he bought a hand-operated tableting machine. After four years of extensive research, Mr. Manal formulated Serpina and laid the foundation for Himalaya’s strong foothold in research. His vision was to bring the traditional Indian science of Ayurveda to society in a contemporary form. Today, Himalaya is a leading global herbal health and personal organization with close to 500 products in over 100 countries.
