Patanjali chyawanprash contain 1.65 gram of amla in 10 grams whereas Dabur chyawanprash contain more then 5 grams in 10 gram content ( more than 50%). So dabur chyawanprash is the better choice.

- Pricing – 1 kilo Patanjali Chyawanprash cost you around Rs 260, whereas 1 kilo Dabur Chyawanprash cost you around Rs 325. Here Patanjali is the cheaper one.
