🌱 Traditional Uses & Benefits

Nagkesar Churna is traditionally used in Ayurveda for several purposes:

🍽️ Digestive Support

• Helps stimulate the digestive fire (agni) and relieve indigestion, bloating, gas, and abdominal discomfort.

• Astringent and warming properties help harmonize Kapha and Vata doshas, supporting smoother digestion.

🩹 Menstrual & Women’s Health

• Traditionally used for menstrual cramps and painful menses when taken in small amounts during the menstrual cycle.

🌬️ Respiratory Comfort

• Can help with mild cough or chest heaviness due to its warm nature and mild expectorant action.

🩺 Anti-Inflammatory & Other Actions

• Contains tannins and aromatic compounds that may have anti-inflammatory and mild antimicrobial effects.

In classical texts, Nagkesar is also used in formulations for bleeding disorders and certain digestive imbalances, though specific use and dose should be guided by an Ayurvedic practitioner.

📏 How Nagkesar Churna Is Typically Taken

While specific brand instructions (e.g., Shree Shanker Ayurvedic) may vary, traditional Ayurvedic guidance suggests:
👉 Dose: Approx 1–3 g (about ½–1 teaspoon) once or twice daily.
👉 How to take: Mix with warm water, honey, or lukewarm water after meals.

Note: Exact dosing depends on your body type (prakriti), health condition, and the reason for use — consult a qualified Ayurvedic doctor for personalised guidance.

🛑 Precautions

• Because it has a warming and astringent nature, people with Pitta imbalance or sensitive mucous membranes should start with a smaller amount.

• Not recommended for self-medication in severe respiratory or digestive disease without practitioner supervision.

• If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medication, speak with a healthcare provider before use.
