For Your Acidic Snags : The
Kamadudha Rasa

Are You Troubled With
Constant Heartburn?

Who does
not love some crispy fried pakoras with a hot cup of tea or some midnight
snacks to finish watching your movie or choosing to hit the office on an emot
stomach only to have your favorite chat on the way! With all these untimely
food and incompatible combinations that we pile in almost on a daily basis,
heartburn is the most recurrent scuffling in many irrespective of age. The idea
might me a little overboard but some many among us might be really troubled
with the speckled blemishes on the face, not realising its all the outcomes of
escalated Pitta Dosha due to all that
spice and masala that goes in with those food irregularities.

As women, if you still think it’s ok to have heavy
menstrual days, do you suppose it to be totally normal?

Well the answer to this is
NO! Alterations seen in the menstrual cycles including leucorrhoea, irregular
menstrual cycles, painful menstruation and heavy menstrual bleeding is all due
to this very same evil, the escalated levels of Pitta. According to Ayurveda
the Pitta entity is responsible for the most optimal functioning of your
digestive system and circulatory system with regular body mechanisms,
menstruation being the most important among them. Hence it is vital to maintain
the pitta at its optimum to maintain the body at its normalcy. And how is this
possible?!?

Kamdudha Ras

Among the
authentic formulations used in ayurvedic therapeutics, this particular combination
is one top notch that helps to retain the normalcy of pitta without hampering
its functionality. This blend is mentioned in the epic Rasa Ratna Prakarana that focuses more on health in general and is
an effective nostrum for gastritis and bleeding disorders. It is a combination
of both herbal and purified mineral drugs available in a tablet form.

Ingredients

The
elements in this compound consist of the following.

  1. Guduchi Satva : The starch
    extract of Tinospora cordifolia
    is the primary component of this formulation. Fundamentally Guduchi lowers all
    the aggravated doshas, but with its sweet metabolic end effect it substantially
    lowers the outcomes of exaggerated pitta including burning sensations and
    intense thirst sensations.
  2. Suddha Swarna Gairika : Purified
    red oxide of iron has sweet, unctuous properties (due to purification in ghee)
    and is ideal for all bleeding disorders. It is also considered as a good source
    of iron in combined form.
  3. Abhrak Bhasma : Mica
    undergoes a series of five processes to achieve its pure and incinerated form
    used for this medication. In this microstructure it has a cold potency that
    brings down pitta and provides added strength to the consumer.
  4. Mukta / Moti Pishti : The
    common sea pearl is an expensive drug administered in most authentic ayurvedic
    formulations for its ultimate capacity to lower Pitta dosha. Pishti of this drug is prepared by triturating the
    incinerated power of pearl with rose water for 21 times to induce more Seethwa to the final product.
  5. Praval Pishti : Sea coral is
    another calcium containing compound widely used across formulations, for its Vata and Pitta alleviating properties. It has been used as single drug
    formulations for diseases involving vitiated blood and other bleeding
    disorders. It is also used to lower the uncanny sensations of heat during sour
    burping.
  6. Muktha Shukti Pishti : The
    shell of pearl oyster or common oyster shell are both chemically instilled with
    calcium. Its sweet flavour and cold potency has an antacid property when
    combined with rose essence in pishti form.
  7. Varatika Bhasma : Courie
    shell or botanically called  Cypraeamonetalirn
    is composed of calcium, magnesium and sodium in different ratios. It is used
    for all gastrointestinal troubles while normalising the strength of the body.
    It is also indicated in ear and eye infections, to name a few others.
  8. Shankh Bhasma : Conch shell
    is plentiful and used for medical purposes relating to digestion. It is one of
    the supreme drugs known to man that can enhance both the digestive power and
    curtail acid reflux or heartburn effectively at the same time.
