Basics

Ayurveda in five ideas.

Ayurveda, “the knowledge of life”, is India’s traditional system of medicine. These are the ideas you’ll see on every product page.

Find your Prakriti ›
01 · Prakriti & the doshasदोष
Three energies shape every body.

Your Prakriti is the balance you were born with. Herbs are described by which doshas they calm or increase.

VataAir · SpaceMovement, breath, nerves
PittaFire · WaterDigestion, heat, focus
KaphaEarth · WaterStructure, strength, calm
02 · Agniअग्नि
Health begins with digestion.

Agni is the digestive fire. When it is steady, food becomes nourishment. When it is weak, Ayurveda says undigested residue (Ama) builds up. That is why so many herbs, like Ajwain, Saunf and Harad, are taken around meals.

03 · Rasaरस
Taste tells you what a herb does.

Ayurveda names six tastes. Each one builds or calms certain doshas, which is why bitter Neem cools Pitta and sweet Shatavari nourishes Vata.

Madhura · sweetAmla · sourLavana · saltyKatu · pungentTikta · bitterKashaya · astringent
04 · Anupanaअनुपान
What you take it with matters.

The anupana is the carrier: warm water, milk, honey or ghee. It helps a herb reach where it’s needed. Ashwagandha in warm milk at night is a classic example. Every product page names the right one.

05 · Ritucharyaऋतुचर्या
Change with the seasons.

Ayurveda divides the year into six seasons and adjusts food, routine and herbs to each. Immunity herbs like Giloy and Tulsi are traditionally taken as the seasons turn.

Clarity

How we read research.

Not all studies carry the same weight. Every study on our product pages has one of these five labels, so you can see how strong the evidence is at a glance.

{{ l.name }}
{{ l.desc }}
1Was it done in people?Lab and animal studies explain how a herb might work. Only human trials show whether it does.
2How many people?A trial of 20 people is a starting point. We show the number on every card.
3What form was tested?Many trials use concentrated extracts. Our products are whole-herb powders, so we always state the form studied.
4Was there a comparison?Randomised, placebo-controlled trials are the fairest test, because they rule out chance and expectation.
Our promises
✓ Every study links to its original record on PubMed.✓ We say when a study used an extract, not powder.✓ Every product lists who should be careful, and why.✓ We never claim a herb cures a disease.
