Lab tests on my own samples show lead exceeding AYUSH limits in three out of five *bhasmas* — the official standards exist, but adherence is the real battle. In my lab, we see nanoparticles from traditional preparation that can make those metals more bioavailable, a risk AYUSH limits don’t yet address. It keeps me up, this gap between the ancient recipe I respect and the atomic absorption spectrometer reading. My daju sends me these medicines from home, and now I test them secretly, torn between our *sanskar* and the science on my screen.
