Katesawar(salmalia malabarica) churna 500gm manakarnika aushadhalaya

Detailed Ingredient Information

• Katesawar/Shalmali (Salmalia malabarica): The 500gm bulk pack contains 100% pure, finely ground powder of the matured bark and roots of the Silk Cotton Tree.

• Active Constituents: It is rich in high-quality mucilage, tannins, and specific alkaloids (like shamimicin), along with significant amounts of Vitamin C and minerals that provide its restorative and cooling actions.

• Ayurvedic Properties: It possesses a Kashaya-Madhura Rasa (astringent-sweet taste), Sheeta Virya (cool potency), and Guru-Snigdha Guna (heavy and unctuous qualities), making it a powerful balancer for Pitta and Vata doshas.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Male Reproductive Tonic: One of the best herbs for “Shukra-Vridhi” (increasing sperm count and quality) and managing premature ejaculation due to its Stambhana (retaining) property.

• Female Health Support: Effectively manages Raktapradara (heavy menstrual bleeding) and leucorrhea by cooling the reproductive system and toning the uterine muscles.

• Digestive Soother: Its high mucilage content provides a protective layer to the gut, making it highly effective for treating chronic diarrhea, dysentery, and bleeding piles.

• Blood Purifier (Raktaprasadana): Helps in cooling the blood and removing toxins, which is beneficial in treating inflammatory skin conditions, acne, and internal burning sensations.

• Wound Healing: When applied topically as a paste, it helps in the rapid healing of wounds, reduces swelling, and soothes burns.

• Urinary Health: Acts as a mild diuretic and cooling agent, providing relief from burning micturition (painful urination) and urinary tract infections.

• Nutritive Tonic: Helps in building physical strength, improving muscle mass, and recovering from general debility after illness.

Precautions

• Digestive Load: Because it is Guru (heavy) and Snigdha (unctuous), individuals with a very weak digestive fire (Manda-Agni) should take it with a digestive stimulant like honey or warm water.

• Dosage: The standard dose is 3 to 6 grams twice daily, traditionally taken with cold milk or water for Pitta issues, or with honey for general strength.

• Constipation: Its astringent nature may cause mild constipation if taken in high doses without sufficient fluid intake.

• Pregnancy: While used traditionally to stabilize pregnancy, it should only be consumed under the direct supervision of an Ayurvedic physician.
