About this formulation

Maha Rasnadi Kwath is a classical Kwatha (decoction) described in the Sharangdhara Samhita and Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa). It is built around Rasna (Pluchea lanceolata) with Bala, Eranda root, Devadaru, Vacha, Vasa, ginger, Haritaki, Guduchi, Gokshura, Ashwagandha, Shatavari and about twenty other herbs. In Ayurveda, Rasna is classed as Vatahara (pacifies Vata) and Shothahara (supports reduction of swelling). The decoction is traditionally used to support Sandhi (joints), the lower back and Snayu (nerves and ligaments), and to help clear Ama (undigested metabolic residue). Take it as directed by a qualified Ayurvedic physician.

Classical reference: Sharangdhara Samhita / Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa).
