Description
Punarnava means ‘to renew or replenish the body’. Quite like its name, Punarnava is a traditional ayurvedic plant that is used to rejuvenate the whole body. The plant as a whole is used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, fever, edema, eye problems, stomach issues, and liver disorders.
Taking Punarnava juice before meals might help manage stomach disorders such as constipation by promoting bowel movements due to its laxative property. It also provides relief from gas and abdominal pain. Punarnava is effective in improving digestion and managing weight and also helps increase urine production due to its diuretic activity and reduces the risk of urinary complications.
Applying Punarnava paste helps to heal skin due to its quick wound healing activity. Moreover, according to Ayurveda, massaging with Punarnava oil helps reduce joint pain due to its Vata balancing property.
Recommended dosages of Punarnava Churna are ¼ - ½ teaspoon twice a day.
Under specific medical conditions consult an Ayurveda practitioner.
