Chyawanprash, a nutritive herbal jam, is regarded as „the elixir of life“for its rejuvenating effects in the system of Ayurvedic medicine. It consists of a unique combination of herbs which favourably affects gastrointestinal functions, optimal immune system and general vitality of bodily tissues due to its antioxidizing properties. Legend has it that in ancient times, the Sage Chyawan, restored his youth and good health by eating Amalaki fruit along with dozens of other herbs, and consequently lived to a ripe old age. That was the origin of a unique herbal elixir, which was named Chyawanprash.
Recommended Dosage
1 teaspoon (5g/teaspoon) 2 – 3x daily seperately or with a cup of lukewarm milk or water. To prepare a drink, mix 1 teaspoon (5g) in 8 fl oz (250 ml) of warm water.
Use
Ayurvedic herbal elixirs enhance nutrition of the bodily tissues (dhatus) and purification of bodily systems (srotamsi). They are part of the rejuvenating and revitalising therapy for body and mind (rasajana). Traditionally they are used with a cup of warm water or milk, commonly used in the Ayurvedic medicine as a medium or environment (anupama) for preparation, use, direction and better assimilation of the health effects of the herbal supplements. To other mediums that increase therapeutic functioning of herbs (vehikula) belongs honey, cane or raw syrup, clarified butter (ghee) or oil.
We recommend to use maximum of two herbal elixirs at the same time. More elixirs can be switched in a day or week period in case we use them for normalising common symptoms of distorted balance of body or mind. For their optimal effect use only one elixir at a time before meal allowing one hour time gap. For more complex therapy for body and mind restoration, elixirs should be used for a longer period of the Ayurvedic therapies from 1 to 3 months following dosage indicated on the label. Specific taste of each elixir represents part of its therapeutic functioning and corresponds to the Ayurvedic properties of six tastes.
For its sattvic properties, the Ayurvedic medicinal system recognises lukewarm or boiled milk as a common ingredient of health recipes. It decreases the hotness of pitta dosha and calms down turbulent emotions. It is substantial nourishment and a healthy tonic for people with predominant vata dosha. The milk enhances formation of life force ojas which is the essence of the healthy immune system connected with efficient presence of kapha dosha. People with sensitive digestion system or slow metabolism can suffer from digestive disorders after milk consumption. Being such case, put a little of ginger, clove, cardamom, cinnamon or nutmeg into the milk for improvement of the digestive fire. Always prefer organic milk.

I started using the Brahmi tea after I stopped the anti seizure medication (as it made me unable to study) The Brahmi tea helped calm the pinching that would happen where my calcified lesion is in my brain. I’m currently writing my thesis and will be done end of July.
Hello, I tried tea for restoring life energy Prana. The effect is wonderful. My daughter when seeing my good mood started to drink it with juice. My husband also started to drink it and from a grouch he became a talking and smiling man :-))
Chyawanprash helped me to get rid of constipation which I had been suffering from for 14 years! Already after three days I started to eliminate once a day. Now after two months my digestion is absolutely all right. My weight also reduced by 3 kg and the atopic eczema vanishes!
I really got to like your Himalayan ayurvedic teas, because they really work. Above all, Tulsi is amazing, but I feel positive results even with your eye tea – Alochaka. Recently, I had some teeth problems so I got Kantakari. Thank you!
I was given your tea for urinary tract from a friend of mine a I am very satisfied with it.
Thanks
Hi, I use Arjuna tea for heart activity for two months. I have an arrhythmia and the tea helped me. I do not feel irregular palpitation and I am feeling well.
Hello, I have been using Varuna for kidney disorders. It improved my kidney condition as well as my atopic eczema.
I would like to thank you for Nagara tea. I got rid of my problems, the positive effects I observed already after five days. Not only I ridded of the inflammation but also of the feeling of cold hands and legs. My skin is also purer.
I drink APANA tea and after years of irregular menstruation my cycle eventually settled down. Amazing.
VIDANGA helped me not only to lose weight, it cleansed my body and helped me look sound and beautiful. I have already tried ASHWAGANDHA, KANTAKARI, SHATAWARI and I can say it works. I am 48 years old and I feel better than before.
