Kumaryasava

1. Liver problems
Liver problems could be due to genetic reasons or as a result of various factors that damage the liver, such as viruses, excess alcohol use, and obesity. Kumaryasava is a well-known Ayurvedic liquid classical preparation which helps to promote healthy liver function. It is very effective against jaundice, liver enlargement, and other liver disorders. This is because it protects the liver from infection and helps to maintain its proper function due to its liver protective property. It also improves digestion because of its Deepan (appetizer) and Ropan (healing) nature.

Tip
-Take 10-15 ml Kumaryasava
-Mix an equal amount of water with the preparation.
-Have it once or twice a day after food.

2. Indigestion
Indigestion refers to a sensation of pain or discomfort in the upper abdominal region. One may also experience a feeling of fullness and bloating. According to Ayurveda, indigestion is termed as Agnimandya. This occurs due to an imbalance of Pitta dosha. Whenever the consumed food is left undigested due to Mand Agni (low digestive fire), it results in the formation of Ama (toxic remains in the body due to improper digestion). This accumulation of Ama in the body causes indigestion. In simple words, we can say that indigestion is the state of an incomplete process of digestion of the ingested food.
Kumaryasava is a useful remedy for indigestion. It improves Pachak Agni (digestive fire) which helps to reduce Ama and manage the symptoms of indigestion due to its Deepan (appetizer) and Pachan (digestion) properties[2].

3. Anorexia
Anorexia is also termed as a loss of appetite. In this, people have an intense fear of gaining weight and can become dangerously thin. According to Ayurveda, anorexia is a condition that results in the imbalance of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas. Low digestive fire (Mand Agni) may affect the digestion process and the food we eat might not get digested properly, resulting in the formation of Ama (toxic remains in the body due to improper digestion). This might lead to anorexia, also known as Aruchi in Ayurveda. There are also some psychological factors that lead to incomplete digestion of food, causing insufficient secretion of gastric juice in the stomach, thereby resulting in loss of appetite. Kumaryasava helps to reduce anorexia because of its Deepan (appetizer) and Pachan (digestion) properties. This helps to improve the digestive fire and reduce Ama which is the prime cause of anorexia[2].

4. Flatulence
Flatulence is a condition of accumulation of gas which causes discomfort in the stomach or intestines resulting in the passage of gases. It is caused due to an imbalance of Vata and Pitta dosha. Low Pitta dosha and an aggravated Vata dosha results in Mand Agni (low digestive fire). This leads to poor digestion and ultimately gas formation or flatulence. Kumaryasava might help manage flatulence by releasing the gas from the stomach due to its Vata balancing properties. It also improves Pachak Agni (digestive fire) and promotes healthy digestion due to its Deepan (appetizer) and Pachan (digestion) properties[2].

Tip
-Take 10-15 ml Kumaryasava twice daily.
-Mix an equal amount of water with the preparation.
-Have it once or twice a day after taking food.

5. Dysmenorrhea
Dysmenorrhea is a condition of pain or discomfort (cramps) during or just before a menstrual period. The pain is usually felt in the lower abdomen. According to Ayurveda, this condition is known as Kasht-Aartava. Aartava or Menstruation is controlled by Vata dosha. An aggravated Vata dosha can be attributed to the symptoms of dysmenorrhoea. Kumaryasava helps manage dysmenorrhea due to its Vata balancing property. It also helps relax the muscles and gives relief from cramps[3].

Tips
Take 10-15 ml Kumaryasava twice daily.
Mix an equal amount of water with the preparation.
Have it once or twice a day after taking food.

6. Dysuria
Dysuria is pain or discomfort caused during urination. According to Ayurveda, it is known as Mutrakrichhra. Improper eating habits, excessive physical exercises, or any external or internal trauma leads to the imbalance of all three doshas especially Vata dosha in the urinary tract. This leads to irritation in the urinary tract resulting in painful and incomplete urination known as dysuria. Kumaryasava helps in the management of dysuria by reducing the symptoms of incomplete urination due to its Vata and Kapha balancing properties[2].

7. Kidney stone
Kidney stones are basically small, hard deposits that form in the kidneys and are often painful when passed. According to Ayurveda, a kidney stone is considered as Mutrashmari. Mutrashmari (renal calculi) is a disease of Vata and Kapha dosha imbalance that causes an obstruction in the urinary system. This might sometimes lead to abnormal urine flow, pain, or burning sensation while passing urine. Kumaryasava helps in the management of kidney stones due to its Vata and Kapha balancing properties. It helps to remove the calculus from the kidney due to its detoxification property[2].

Tips
-Take 10-15 ml Kumaryasava twice daily.
-Mix an equal amount of water with the preparation.
-Have it once or twice a day after taking food.

8. Asthma
Asthma is a condition of inflammation of air passage in the lungs which makes it difficult for a person to breathe. In this condition, a person faces repeated attacks of breathlessness and wheezing sounds from the chest.
According to Ayurveda, the main doshas involved in asthma are Vata and Kapha. An aggravated Kapha dosha imbalances Vata dosha in the lungs. This creates an obstruction in the air passage which makes breathing difficult and the condition is known as Swas Roga (Asthma). Kumaryasava helps in the management of asthma due to its Vata and Kapha balancing properties. It helps to clear the obstruction in the air passage due to its detoxification property. This helps in easy breathing[3].
