Padmakashth(prunus cerasoides) powder 250gm by manikarnika aushadhalaya

It is highly valued for its skin-soothing properties and its ability to support the female reproductive system.

Detailed Product Information

This 250g powder is derived from the heartwood of the Prunus cerasoides tree. In Ayurveda, Padmakastha is classified as “Varnya” (skin-lightening) and “Daha-prashamana” (relieving burning sensations).

It has a “Tikta” (bitter) and “Kashaya” (astringent) taste, which makes it effective for detoxifying the blood and reducing internal heat.

It is commonly used both internally, to support hormonal balance and treat bleeding disorders, and externally as a face pack to improve complexion and treat skin eruptions.

Detailed Ingredient Information

The product consists of a single, pure ingredient:

• Padmakastha (Heartwood of Prunus cerasoides): The wood is dried and finely powdered. It contains active compounds like flavonoids, tannins, and amygdalin, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Skin Health: Helps in reducing hyperpigmentation, acne, and skin redness when applied as a paste.

• Uterine Tonic: Traditionally used to manage excessive menstrual bleeding (Menorrhagia) and support a healthy pregnancy.

• Cooling Effect: Provides relief from burning sensations in the body, especially in the hands and feet.

• Blood Purification: Acts as a mild alterative to cleanse the blood of Pitta-based toxins.

• Wound Healing: Its astringent properties help in faster healing of minor skin ulcers and wounds.

Precautions

• Pregnancy: While used traditionally for pregnancy support, it must only be taken under the strict supervision of an Ayurvedic doctor.

• Dosage: Excessive internal consumption may lead to constipation due to its astringent (Kashaya) nature.

• External Sensitivity: Always perform a patch test before applying to the face to ensure no allergic reaction to the natural resins in the wood.
