Smriti Irani has lent her voice to a science-led women’s wellness initiative unveiled by Laila Nutraceuticals at the World Economic Forum in Davos, highlighting the growing global conversation around preventive healthcare and women-centric health frameworks.
The former Union Minister and long-time advocate for women’s empowerment congratulated Yuthika Gokaraju on the launch, stressing the need to place women’s health at the centre of long-term social and economic planning. Speaking at the forum, Irani underscored that investments in women’s wellbeing must be viewed beyond the lens of individual care and seen as a national priority.
“Women must be at the centre of decision-making for a future-ready society — not only in education and opportunity, but in health and wellbeing,” said Smriti Irani. “An initiative of this scale, grounded in science and led by a young woman, reflects both India’s capability and its conscience. Prioritising women’s health is not just a social responsibility; it is an economic and national imperative.”
The initiative marks an effort to address long-standing gaps in women’s healthcare through a preventive, life-stage–aligned approach, drawing from scientific research and clinical validation. While led by Laila Nutraceuticals, the broader intent, as highlighted at Davos, is to encourage structured, evidence-based conversations around women’s health that move beyond fragmented solutions.
Yuthika Gokaraju, Vice President – Business Development at Laila Nutraceuticals, noted that women’s health has often been addressed in silos and that the aim is to create a more cohesive framework that supports women across different stages of life. The focus areas include reproductive and menstrual health, hormonal changes, metabolic balance, bone health, mental wellbeing, and healthy ageing.
The announcement also aligns with India’s wider emphasis on integrating traditional knowledge with scientific validation in preventive healthcare. Addressing the Second WHO Global Summit on Traditional Medicine, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had earlier spoken about the importance of balance as the essence of health, calling for responsible and future-ready healthcare systems rooted in evidence and regulation.
