🪶 What Shivakshar Pachan Churna Is

Shivakshar Pachan Churna is a classical Ayurvedic herbal powder used mainly to support digestive health and ease common stomach issues. It’s traditionally formulated with a blend of herbs and digestive aids that work together to:

• Stimulate digestive fire (Agni)

• Relieve gas, bloating, flatulence, and abdominal discomfort

• Support smoother bowel movements

• Help with indigestion, heaviness after meals, and occasional constipation

The name “Shivakshar Pachan” reflects its action on digestion (pachan = digest; shivakshar referring to therapeutic herbal salts and powdered ingredients used to balance digestion).

✨ Typical Ingredients (Classical Blend)

Though formulations vary a bit by manufacturer, key herbs and ingredients often include:

• Haritaki (Terminalia chebula) – mild laxative & digestive support

• Ajwain (Trachyspermum ammi) – carminative

• Black pepper & long pepper (Piper nigrum / Piper longum) – spice herbs that kindle digestion

• Dry ginger (Shunthi) – warms and stimulates absorption

• Rock salt (Saindhava) – enhances taste and digestion

• Asafoetida (Hing) – relieves gas & bloating

• Cumin / Jeera and other digestive herbs — typically carminative and soothing
