Devdar Cedrus deodara churna 250gm manikarnika aushadhalaya

Manikarnika Aushadhalaya’s Devdar Churna is a pure single-herb Ayurvedic powder derived from the heartwood of Cedrus deodara, commonly known as the Himalayan Cedar. In Sanskrit, Devdar translates to “Wood of the Gods,” reflecting its sacred and highly medicinal status.

It is primarily valued in Ayurveda for its “Ushna” (heating) property and its ability to balance Vata and Kapha doshas.

This churna is widely used for treating respiratory issues, inflammation, and skin disorders, and is particularly famous for its effectiveness in removing excess “Ama” (toxins) from the body.

Detailed Ingredient Information

The 250g pack contains 100% pure, finely ground powder of:

• Devdar (Cedrus deodara): The heartwood contains essential oils (primarily caryophyllene and cedrene), flavonoids, and lignans. It possesses potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antispasmodic, and antifungal properties.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Respiratory Support: Acts as a natural expectorant, helping to clear mucus from the lungs and providing relief in chronic cough, bronchitis, and asthma.

• Joint & Muscle Pain: Due to its heating nature and Vata-balancing properties, it is highly effective in reducing pain and swelling in arthritis and sciatica.

• Skin Health: Helps treat chronic skin infections, itching, and oozing wounds because of its strong antifungal and antibacterial actions.

• Metabolic & Digestive Health: It is used to improve digestion, treat bloating (Adhmana), and assist in managing diabetes by regulating metabolic processes.

• Urogenital Benefits: Acts as a mild diuretic and is traditionally used to treat urinary tract infections and alleviate painful menstruation.

Precautions

• Heating Nature: Because Devdar is “Ushna Virya” (hot in potency), it should be used with caution by individuals with high Pitta (excessive body heat or acidity).

• Pregnancy & Lactation: It is generally advised to avoid internal consumption during pregnancy as it can stimulate uterine contractions; consult a physician before use.

• Dosage Guidance: The standard internal dose is 1–3 grams. Over-dosage may cause a burning sensation in the stomach or increased thirst.

• External Application: When used as a paste (Lepa), a patch test is recommended for those with sensitive skin to ensure the essential oils do not cause irritation.
