Jeshtamadha (Glycyrrhiza glabra) Bharad 1kg by manikarnika aushadhalaya

Detailed Ingredient Information

• Jeshtamadha (Glycyrrhiza glabra): 100% pure, dried, and coarsely crushed Licorice root.

• Active Compounds: Contains glycyrrhizin (up to 50 times sweeter than sugar), flavonoids (liquiritin, isoliquiritin), and phytosterols that support endocrine health.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Respiratory Relief: Acts as a powerful expectorant and demulcent, effectively soothing sore throats, reducing dry cough, and clearing hoarseness of voice (Swarabheda).

• Digestive Healing: Highly effective for hyperacidity (Amla-Pitta), gastritis, and peptic ulcers by forming a protective mucus lining in the stomach and neutralizing excess acid.

• Immunity & Vitality: Functions as a “Rasayana” (rejuvenator) that strengthens the immune system and helps the body combat physical and mental stress by supporting adrenal function.

• Skin & Complexion: When used as a wash or paste, it helps lighten hyperpigmentation, treats sunburn, and provides a natural glow due to its Varnaya (complexion-enhancing) properties.

• Liver Protection: Supports liver detoxification and helps manage chronic conditions like fatty liver by reducing oxidative stress.

• Anti-inflammatory: Helps reduce systemic inflammation, providing relief in joint pains and allergic conditions.

Precautions

• Blood Pressure: Long-term or excessive consumption can lead to water retention and elevated blood pressure (hypertension) due to glycyrrhizin; use with caution if you have heart conditions.

• Potassium Levels: May cause a drop in potassium levels (hypokalemia) if consumed in large quantities over an extended period; avoid if taking diuretics.

• Pregnancy: While safe in small amounts, therapeutic doses should only be taken under the supervision of an Ayurvedic physician.

• Kidney Health: Individuals with chronic kidney disease should avoid high doses as it may interfere with electrolyte balance.
