About this formulation

Ashokarista is a classical fermented tonic from the Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Stri Roga Chikitsa). It is built around Ashoka bark (Saraca asoca) with Dhataki, Mustaka, ginger, Daruharidra, lotus, Triphala, mango seed, cumin, Vasa and white sandalwood. In Ayurveda, Ashoka is classed as Garbhashaya Balya (supports the uterus) and Kashaya (astringent). The tonic is traditionally used to support a comfortable, regular menstrual cycle and to balance Vata and Pitta. Heavy or very painful periods should be checked by a doctor.

Classical reference: Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Stri Roga / Asrigdara Chikitsa Prakarana).
