SP showed maximum improvement (>75%) in this study. Overall effect of SP on above mentioned parameters shows that, 116.13 (88.65%) parents found overall improvement in all parameters, 9.37 (7.16%) parents could not judge any change and only 5.5 (4.19%) parents found their children deteriorateChanges in Antropometry, IQ, milestones, health status, illnesses in children, and various lab tests like IgG, IgM etc. <ref>Antony C. et.al. : A Scoping Review on the Health outcomes of Suvarnaprashana in apparently healthy children.

Multiple studies have been conducted on Suvarnaprashana done using suvarna bhasma. Most of the studies have assessed the effects of Suvarnaprashana on growth, development, disease characteristics, intelligence quotient, quality of life, hematological, biochemical or immunological parameters in children upto 12 years of age. Newborns including preterm infants have also been included in some studies.

# A comparative pharmaco-clinical study on Suvarnaprashana medicine and just ghee-honey combination in full term newborns showed that, Weight, MUAC, head circumference had significant increase in SP group than control group. Episodes of recurrent Upper respiratory tract infections, diarrhoeal episodes were absent or infrequent in SP group than control group. Significan tincrease in WBC and lymphocyte count, IgG levels also showed significant rise. [Gaikwad AS et al. 2011] Once daily 4 weeks
# A randomised controlled clinical trial on Suvarna prashana to assess its immunomodulatory activity in neonates showed that, significant increase in weight of the children treated with SP is observed as compared to control group. Moreover infrequent or absence of other illnesses during follow up episodes was also observed in SP treated group [Singh P et al 2016] Once daily 6 weeks
# A comparative pilot study conducted to assess efficacy of Suvarnaprashana in Preterm born infants upto 3 years age, suggested that, SP leads to healthy weight gain in children significantly moreover these children are less likely to fall sick due to frequent illnesses during the course. [Rathi R et al 2017] Once every Pushya constellation for 6 months
# One comparative clinical study was conducted to assess role of suvarnaprashana on recurrent illness in children from 3 to 10 years age showed that SP treatment lead to significant improvement in appetite in children. Moreover these children did not show recurrent cold, cough, loose stools, vomitting etc as compared to the children in the other group. Significan timprovement in Total WBC count and Hb % was observed in children treated with SP compared to the other group. [Joshi K et 2019] Once daily for 30 days
# One study was conducted to evaluate role of Suvarnaprashana on growth and development in Indian toddlers. The reports showed that, along with the positive improvement in physical parameters like height, weight etc, the developmental quotient for mental age of SP treated group was highly significant than the non-treated group. [Kannan S et al 2018] Once every pushya nakshatra for 9 months
# The effect of Suvarnaprashana on physical growth parameters like weight and height in children upto 12 years age was evaluated in one study. It showed that the effect on weight is significant but not statistically significant effect on height in SP treated group is observed. [Ramteke RD et al 2014] Every Pushya nakshatra for 1 year
# Effects of Suvarnaprashana on multiple parameters in children were assessed in one more study. [Patil A et al 2017] SP was orally administered for 6 months once every pushya or 27th day. The study reports showed that not just the height and weight but also improvement in IQ scores of SP treated group is significant. Moreover, increase in mean levels of immunoglobins like IgG, IgM, IgA were observed among SP treated children group after 6 months of SP.
# Effect of Suvarnprashana on physical growth as well as its immunomodulatory activity was assessed in children upto 14 years age in a study. The reports showed that SP therapy significantly improves weight, height and head circumference of children. [Khawale D et al 2017] Once every 27th day for 1 year
# Other few studies evaluated the effects of Suvarnaprashana as a preventive healthcare measure in children upto 8 years age and its clinical effects. Highly significant decrease in occurance of illnesses like cough, dyspnoes, sleep problems and pharyngitis is observed in SP treated group highlighting its preventive role. Improvement in weight and height was seen in these studies as well. [Rao NP et al 2012] once daily for 30 days [Somaji LD et al 2014] once every pushya nakshatra for 12 months
Almost all the studies have reported significant improvement in weight of the child and decrease in illnesses after administering SP even at a monthly single dose. This reiterates the pharmacological action of gold and ghee as anabolic and immunoprotective.
