About this formulation

Balarishta is a classical fermented tonic from the Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa). It is built around Bala (Sida cordifolia) with Ashwagandha, Kshira Vidari, Eranda root, Rasna, Prasarini and Gokshura. In Ayurveda, Bala is classed as Balya (strength-promoting) and Brimhana (nourishing). The tonic is traditionally used to nourish Mamsa (muscle) and Majja (nerve) tissue, to support recovery from weakness and to pacify Vata. It contains naturally generated alcohol.

Classical reference: Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa Prakarana).
