Introduction: Nowadays, people are more attentive to their health. Herbal medicines are getting significant attention in body tonic. Materials and Method: The four herbal formulas were prepared by decoction. The antioxidant activity assays were performed using the DPPH and FRAP assay. The physical and chemical stability were tested including color, odor, sedimentation, taste and pH.The microbiological limit test was conducted using the total aerobic bacteria. Results: There is no significant difference between the four formulated mixtures in antioxidant assays (p>0.05) whereas the formulated mixtures showed significantly higher antioxidant activities when compared to the control formulas (p<0.05).Total aerobic bacteria of all formulas were reached the standard criterion.
