• Digestive Stimulant: Relieves flatulence, abdominal pain, and indigestion by enhancing gastric secretions and improving intestinal motility.

• Anti-inflammatory Support: Helps in reducing joint pain and stiffness associated with rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory conditions.

• Oral Hygiene: Its natural antimicrobial properties help in treating bad breath, gum infections, and oral ulcers.

• Nervine Tonic: Stimulates the central nervous system, helping to improve mental alertness and reduce feelings of lethargy or “brain fog.“

Precautions

• Pitta Constitution: Due to its “Ushna Virya” (hot potency), individuals with high acidity, stomach ulcers, or excessive body heat should use it with caution.

• Pregnancy and Lactation: Not recommended for use during pregnancy as its heating property may stimulate the pelvic area; consult a doctor if breastfeeding.

• Mouth Irritation: Chewing large pieces may cause a burning sensation or irritation in the mouth; always start with a very small fragment.

• Medical Supervision: Individuals on blood pressure or blood-thinning medications should consult a physician due to its circulatory-stimulating effects.
