About this formulation

Kutajarishta is a classical fermented tonic from the Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Atisara and Grahani Chikitsa). It is built around Kutaja (Holarrhena antidysenterica) root with raisins, Mahua, Gambhari and Dhataki flowers. In Ayurveda, Kutaja is classed as Grahi (helps firm the stool) and Sangrahi (absorbent). The tonic is traditionally used to support Purishavaha Srotas (the intestines) and normal bowel movements, and to balance Pitta and Kapha. If loose motions are severe or come with blood, fever or dehydration, see a doctor promptly.

Classical reference: Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Atisara / Grahani Chikitsa Prakarana).
