Art of Vedas — Authentic Ayurvedic Products

Musta Churnam (Cyperus rotundus), known as Nagarmotha in Hindi, is regarded in classical Ayurveda as one of the finest Deepana-Pachana (digestive) herbs. The Charaka Samhita classifies it in the Lekhaniya group (metabolic herbs) and the Trishna Nigrahana group (thirst-alleviating).

Unlike many digestive herbs that are heating, Musta offers the rare quality of stimulating Agni without generating excess heat. Its cooling Virya makes it suitable even in warm seasons and for Pitta-predominant constitutions. Classical texts also describe it as Grahi (absorbent) and Stambhana (binding).

Take 1/2 to 1 teaspoon (2-3g) with warm water, before or after meals. Often combined with other digestive herbs such as Haritaki or ginger for enhanced effect.

Avipattikar Choornam is a classical compound formulation described in the Bhaishajya Ratnavali and Sharangadhara Samhita. It is among the most widely prescribed Pitta-balancing digestive powders, combining cooling, carminative and gently laxative herbs into a single harmonious blend. The name suggests a formulation that prevents "Vipatti" (disorder) in the digestive tract.

The compound includes Trikatu (ginger, black pepper, long pepper), Triphala, Musta, Vidanga and Ela (cardamom) with Mishri (rock sugar). The warming Trikatu stimulates Agni while the cooling majority of the formula pacifies excess Pitta. Both Deepana (appetite-kindling) and Anulomana (gently downward-moving).

Take 1/2 to 1 teaspoon (2-3g) with warm water or buttermilk, after meals. Traditionally taken after lunch and dinner for optimal digestive support.

Chandraprabha Gulika is the Kerala Ayurvedic Gulika form of the celebrated Chandraprabha formulation, prepared according to the Sahasrayogam and traditional Kerala pharmaceutical methods. While sharing the same name and classical intent as Chandraprabha Vati, this version follows the distinct Kerala Gulika preparation with specific Bhavana (trituration) steps that enhance potency.

Like its Vati counterpart, Chandraprabha Gulika is a broad-spectrum compound containing multiple herbs, minerals and Guggulu. Traditionally valued as a Rasayana for overall vitality, strength and balanced function. The Kerala preparation method produces a more potent and readily absorbed form through repeated Bhavana processing.

Take 1-2 tablets twice daily with warm water or warm milk, after meals, or as directed by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

Balaswagandhadi Kuzhambu is the thicker form of the classical Balaswagandhadi formulation documented in the Sahasrayogam. Built around Bala (strength) and Ashwagandha (vitality), this is the preparation traditionally chosen when the goal is deep, sustained nourishment of muscles and tissue.

The semi-solid consistency keeps the formulation in contact with the skin longer than a flowing Thailam. This makes it the preferred choice for targeted application on fatigued or depleted areas, particularly after physical exertion, during recovery, or as part of a strengthening daily routine. It softens with body heat and absorbs at a measured pace.

In Ayurvedic practice, Balaswagandhadi is classified as Balya (strengthening) and Brimhana (nourishing). The Kuzhambu form concentrates that action exactly where it is needed.

Thikthakam Ghritham is a classical bitter ghee from the Ashtanga Hridayam, belonging to the same Tikta Ghrita (bitter ghee) family as Mahathiktakam Ghritham. Where Mahathiktakam uses a large, broad group of herbs, Thikthakam uses a smaller, more focused group of 9 herb extracts with a specific classical emphasis on the Asthi Dhatu (bone tissue) and Majja Dhatu (marrow) channels.

The Tikta (bitter) taste has a particular affinity for Asthi Dhatu in the classical texts, making bitter ghee preparations the preferred vehicle for supporting the bone tissue level. The herb group centres on Nimba (Neem), Guduchi, Patola and Triphala, processed into purified cow's ghee. Classical texts describe it as Pittahara, Asthiposhaka (bone tissue-nourishing) and Majja Dhatu Poshaka. More targeted than Mahathiktakam for deeper tissue presentations.

Take 1-2g daily on an empty stomach, warmed to liquid consistency, with warm water, or as directed by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

Mahathiktakam Ghritham is the great bitter ghee of the classical Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia, documented in the Ashtanga Hridayam (Chikitsa Sthana). The name is literal: Maha (great) + Tikta (bitter) + Ghritham (ghee). This formulation combines 26 bitter and astringent herbs including Nimba (Neem), Guduchi, Triphala and Patola, processed into purified cow's ghee through the traditional Sneha Kalpana method.

In the classical framework, the Tikta (bitter) taste is the primary tool for Pitta reduction and Rakta Dhatu (blood tissue) support. Mahathiktakam provides a broad, deep Tikta action across multiple tissue levels simultaneously. Classical texts describe it as Pittahara, Kushthaghna (skin-clarifying) and Raktashodhaka (blood-supporting). The "Maha" prefix distinguishes it from Thikthakam Ghritham by the greater breadth of herbs in the formula.

Take 2g daily on an empty stomach, warmed to liquid consistency, with warm water, or as directed by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

Dhanwantharam Ghritham is the classical ghee form of the Dhanwantharam formulation, documented in the Ashtanga Hridayam and Sahasrayogam. Named after Lord Dhanwantari, the patron deity of Ayurveda, this preparation carries over 33 herbs led by Bala (Sida cordifolia) and the Dashamula (ten-root) group, processed into purified cow's ghee through the traditional Sneha Kalpana method. As a Ghritham, it nourishes Vata-affected tissues directly through the digestive channels.

The Dashamula group forms the foundational Vata-pacifying base, while Bala adds the primary Brimhana (tissue-building) dimension that distinguishes this formulation. Classical texts describe it as Vatahara, Balya and Brimhana, with particular emphasis in the prenatal and postnatal context (Garbhini and Sutika Paricharya). It complements external application of Dhanwantharam Thailam: the Ghritham works internally, the Thailam externally.

Take 2-3g daily on an empty stomach, warmed to liquid consistency, with warm water, or as directed by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

Navara Rice is one of the rarest and most revered grains in the Ayurvedic tradition. Known in Sanskrit as Shashtika Shali (the sixty-day rice) and in Malayalam as Njavara, this ancient Kerala rice variety has been cultivated and used in Ayurvedic practice for over 2,500 years. It holds a Geographical Indication (GI) tag from Kerala, certifying its unique origin and heritage. Art of Vedas sources this rice directly from traditional cultivators in Kerala. The grains are red, medium-sized and unpolished, retaining the full bran layer.

Its most famous application is in Njavara Kizhi (Shashtika Shali Pinda Sweda), one of the signature Kerala Panchakarma therapies, where the rice is cooked in a herbal decoction with milk, wrapped in cloth boluses and used to massage the body. A related therapy, Njavara Theppu, uses a warm paste of cooked Navara Rice applied directly to the skin. Both are considered deeply rejuvenating in the Kerala tradition. If you operate a Panchakarma centre or Ayurvedic clinic, authentic Navara Rice is an essential supply.

Beyond its therapeutic applications, Navara Rice is a cherished traditional food in Kerala, prepared as Karkidaka Kanji (monsoon gruel) or as a simple porridge with milk. It has a characteristic nutty, slightly earthy flavour. Soak for four to six hours before cooking, using approximately one cup of rice to three cups of water. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.

Kaisora Guggulu (also written Kaishore Guggulu) is a classical compound tablet described in the Bhaishajya Ratnavali and Sharangadhara Samhita. It combines purified Guggulu resin with Triphala, Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) and a balanced group of supporting herbs. The name "Kaisora" refers to the youthful vitality this formulation traditionally aims to support.

Guggulu's Yogavahi property carries and enhances the action of other herbs to deeper tissue levels. Classical texts associate Kaisora Guggulu with Rakta Dhatu (blood tissue) and Mamsa Dhatu (muscle tissue). It is described in classical literature as Raktashodhaka (a traditional Ayurvedic property), Rasayana (rejuvenative in the classical Ayurvedic sense) and Amapachana (supporting the digestion of Ama), traditionally valued as part of a Vata-Pitta balancing routine.

Take 1-2 tablets twice daily with warm water, after meals, or as directed by your Ayurvedic practitioner. Classical texts recommend combining with Triphala Kashayam or warm milk.

Arogyavardhini Gulika (also known as Arogyavardhini Vati) is a classical compound described in the Rasaratna Samuchayam and Bhaishajya Ratnavali. The name means "that which enhances health." It is one of the most widely referenced formulations in Rasa Shastra, combining herbo-mineral ingredients with Triphala, Chitrak, Kutki and purified Guggulu.

Arogyavardhini addresses Agni and Pitta balance simultaneously. Classical texts describe it as Deepana (appetite-kindling), Pachana (digestion-supporting) and Pittashamaka (Pitta-calming). The combination of warming digestive herbs with cooling Kutki creates balanced action that supports both digestive comfort and Pitta regulation.

Take 1 tablet, 2 times daily with water, or as advised by your Ayurvedic practitioner. Store in a cool, dry place.

Guggulu (Commiphora mukul) is one of the most significant substances in the classical Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia, referenced extensively in the Sushruta Samhita and Charaka Samhita. It is a natural tree resin with a unique Yogavahi property: the ability to carry and enhance the action of other herbs to deeper tissue levels. It has a particular affinity for Vata and Kapha Doshas.

Classical texts describe Guggulu as Rasayana (rejuvenative), Deepana (Agni-kindling) and Shodhana (cleansing). Warming, penetrating and traditionally valued for its purifying qualities. Take 1-2 capsules daily with water, or as advised by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) holds a singular place in Ayurvedic tradition as the premier Medhya Rasayana, a herb classified for its support of clarity and mental balance. Referenced in the Charaka Samhita and Ashtanga Hridayam, the name derives from Brahma, the creative principle. Brahmi is Tridoshic with a cooling Virya, suitable year-round for all constitutional types.

Classical texts describe it as Medhya (intellect-nourishing), Ayushya (life-promoting) and Rasayana (rejuvenative). Take 2 capsules daily with water, preferably after meals.

Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia), known in Ayurveda by the revered name Amrita ("divine nectar"), is one of the most important Rasayana herbs in the classical pharmacopoeia. The Charaka Samhita and Ashtanga Hridayam describe it as Tridoshic, with a particular capacity to balance Pitta without aggravating Vata or Kapha.

Its unique combination of bitter taste with a sweet Vipaka gives it a rare capacity to be both cleansing and nourishing simultaneously. Classical texts classify it as Rasayana (rejuvenative) and Deepana (Agni-kindling). Take 2 capsules daily with warm water, or as advised by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

This product is a food supplement. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or under medical supervision, consult a qualified practitioner before use.

Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) is one of Ayurveda's most celebrated Rasayana herbs, praised in the Charaka Samhita and Ashtanga Hridayam for its deeply nourishing qualities. The name means "she who possesses a hundred husbands," reflecting its traditional importance. With a sweet taste, cooling Virya and sweet Vipaka, Shatavari is the quintessential Pitta-pacifying and Vata-nourishing herb.

Classical texts describe it as Balya (strength-promoting), Vrishya (vitality-enhancing) and Jivaniya (life-giving). A valued Rasayana for all constitutions. Take 2 capsules daily with warm water, or as advised by your Ayurvedic practitioner.

This product is a food supplement. Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Dashmoola Churnam, meaning "ten roots," is one of the most important compound formulations in classical Ayurveda. Described in the Charaka Samhita and Ashtanga Hridayam, it combines five roots from large trees (Brihat Panchamoola) with five roots from smaller plants (Laghu Panchamoola) to create one of the most comprehensive Vata-balancing formulas in the tradition.

Brihat Panchamoola provides deep, heavy, grounding qualities that pacify Vata in the bones and joints. Laghu Panchamoola contributes lighter, more penetrating qualities that reach the subtler channels. Classical texts classify Dashmoola as Shothahara (comfort-supporting), Jwaraghna (heat-balancing) and Vatahara (Vata-pacifying).

Can be prepared as a decoction (boil 1 tablespoon in 200ml water, reduce to 50ml, strain), taken as powder (1/2 to 1 teaspoon with warm water) or used externally in Kizhi preparations. Use as directed by your practitioner.

Sahacharadi Kuzhambu is a classical formulation from the Ashtanga Hridayam, built around Sahachara (Strobilanthes ciliatus), the herb traditionally valued in Ayurveda for its specific action on the lower body. This is the preparation you reach for when the focus is the lower back, hips, thighs, and legs.

The semi-solid Kuzhambu form keeps the formulation in contact with the skin longer than Sahacharadi Thailam, making it the preferred choice for sustained application on the lower extremities. It softens with body heat and absorbs gradually. In classical practice, Sahachara is associated with Apana Vayu, the downward-moving energy that governs the lower body. The Kuzhambu form delivers that targeted action precisely where it is needed.

Practitioners use Sahacharadi Kuzhambu in Panchakarma protocols including Kati Basti and localised lower body therapies. At home, it is well suited to daily application on the lower back and legs.
