Gandharva hastadi taila 1ltr sdm ayurvedya

Gandharva Hastadi Taila is a classical Ayurvedic medicated oil, traditionally used as a safe and effective natural laxative.

The 1-liter pack from SDM Ayurvediya (Sri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara) is commonly used in clinical settings for Panchakarma treatments and long-term digestive management.

Detailed Product Information

Gandharva Hastadi Taila is prepared using a base of Castor oil (Eranda Taila), which is processed with various medicinal herbs.

It is primarily used for “Mridu Virechana” (gentle purgation) to balance the Vata and Pitta doshas.

Unlike standard castor oil, the herbal infusion makes it more palatable and reduces the griping pain often associated with laxatives. It is frequently prescribed for abdominal bloating, splenic disorders, and inflammatory conditions of the lower back and joints caused by Vata imbalance.

Detailed Ingredient Information

• Gandharva Hasta (Ricinus communis root): The primary herb known for its ability to clear the bowels and relieve Vata-related pains.

• Yava (Hordeum vulgare): Helps in cleansing the intestinal tract and providing bulk.

• Nagara/Shunthi (Zingiber officinale): Acts as a digestive stimulant to prevent gas formation during the purgation process.

• Kshira (Cow’s Milk): Used in the processing (Samskara) to reduce the heat and harshness of the castor oil.

• Eranda Taila (Castor Oil): The base oil that acts as the main vehicle for the therapeutic herbs.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Relieves chronic constipation by ensuring smooth and complete evacuation.

• Helps in reducing abdominal distension, bloating, and gas.

• Beneficial in managing lower backache, sciatica, and Vata-related joint stiffness.

• Used as a preparatory procedure (Purvakarma) for various Ayurvedic therapies.

• Cleanses the small and large intestines of accumulated toxins (Ayurvedic “Ama”).
