The root of the pushkarmool plant is bitter in taste; it clears the airways through the lungs and allows proper flow of oxygen inside the blood. Researchers have deeply studied the medicinal properties of this powerful plant, and have reported various benefits for males and females.

Pushkarmool is also known to balance the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas. The bitter taste of roots balances Kapha dosha, and the hot nature of this plant treats Vata and pitta doshas. Let us dig a little deeper into three doshas of the human body.

The doshas are biological energies found in the human body that helps to lead a healthy life. If any of these three doshas goes out of balance, it causes severe health issues to the body. The Kapha is an element of water, Vata is an element of space, and Pitta is an element of fire. 

Imbalanced Pitta causes heartburn after having meals; imbalanced Vata can cause anxiety and stress; whereas imbalanced Kapha causes dehydration. Pushkarmool capsules/tablets help balance all three doshas. One capsule of pushkarmool is advised to take with lukewarm water for additional medicinal benefits. Consult your doctor before consuming pushkarmool tablets.
