Detailed Ingredient Information

• Shuddha Gairik (Purified Red Ochre): The sole ingredient, chemically known as Iron Oxide . In Ayurveda, it is purified by heating the raw mineral and then quenching it in cow’s milk (Godugdha) or other specific liquids to remove impurities and enhance its therapeutic safety.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Hemetinic Properties: Being a natural source of iron, it is used to manage anemia and increase hemoglobin levels.

• Hemostatic Agent: Highly effective in stopping internal or external bleeding, making it useful in conditions like menorrhagia (heavy periods), epistaxis (nosebleeds), and bleeding piles.

• Skin Health: Applied topically or taken internally, it helps alleviate skin conditions characterized by itching, burning sensations, and rashes (urticaria).

• Gastric Support: Acts as an antacid to relieve symptoms of hyperacidity, burning sensation in the stomach, and gastritis.

Precautions

• Medical Supervision: Because it is a mineral-based product, it must be taken strictly under the guidance of an Ayurvedic physician.

• Dosage: Excessive intake may lead to constipation or a metallic taste in the mouth. It is typically administered in very small doses (125mg to 500mg) with honey or water.

• Pregnancy: Consult a healthcare provider before use, although it is sometimes used for specific pregnancy-related symptoms under expert care.

• Iron Sensitivity: Individuals with conditions like hemochromatosis (iron overload) should avoid this preparation.
