Behadal(terminalia bellirica) churna 400gm manikarnika aushadhalaya

Detailed Ingredient Information

• Behada/Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica): 100% pure, finely ground dried fruit rind, processed after removing the seeds (as the seeds are not used medicinally).

• Chemical Constituents: Rich in tannins (gallic acid, ellagic acid), lignans, and flavones which provide powerful antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.

• Ayurvedic Profile: Characterized by Kashaya Rasa (astringent taste) and Ushna Virya (hot potency), making it an excellent “Kapha-Vata” pacifier.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Respiratory Health: Acts as a powerful expectorant to clear excess mucus from the lungs, providing relief from chronic cough, bronchitis, and asthma.

• Digestive Regulation: Supports healthy bowel movements and acts as a mild laxative when taken in larger doses, while its astringent nature helps in cases of chronic diarrhea at lower doses.

• Vision Support (Chakshushya): Traditionally used to improve eyesight and manage various eye disorders when used as part of a balanced Ayurvedic regimen.

• Hair and Scalp Health: Promotes hair growth and helps prevent premature greying by nourishing the hair follicles from within.

• Cholesterol Management: Its “scraping” property helps in reducing accumulated fats (Medas) and managing healthy cholesterol levels in the blood.

• Throat Care: Highly effective in treating hoarseness of voice, sore throat, and laryngitis.

Precautions

• Dryness: Due to its strong astringent (Kashaya) nature, excessive use may cause dryness in the mouth or throat; it is often taken with honey or ghee to offset this.

• Pregnancy: Consult an Ayurvedic physician before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

• Drug Interactions: May interfere with the absorption of certain medications if taken simultaneously; maintain a 2-hour gap between this churna and other drugs.

• Diabetes: Monitor blood sugar levels closely if you are on diabetic medication, as Bibhitaki can naturally lower blood glucose.
