🔹 DESCRIPTION

In Ayurveda, the form in which an herb is consumed is as important as the herb itself. Riddhish Herbals Baheda Akha (Whole Fruit) is prepared following traditional practices that preserve the fruit in its natural, complete form — exactly as described in classical Ayurvedic texts.

Baheda, also known as Bibhitaki, is treasured in Ayurveda as one of the three fruits that make up the famous Triphala formulation. While powders and extracts are modern adaptations, whole Baheda fruits have been traditionally preferred for decoctions, soaking methods and formulation blending because they retain their original fibre structure and natural constituents in an unaltered state.

In today’s world of processed food and irregular eating cycles, inner balance and digestive comfort are essential aspects of wellness. Baheda Akha fits smoothly into daily Ayurvedic routines by offering an authentic raw herbal experience that aligns with Ayurveda’s preventive philosophy.

This product is ideal for wellness seekers who appreciate minimally processed herbs and follow classical preparation methods such as boiling, soaking or slow herbal decoction-making. The whole fruit form allows flexible and traditional use, making it suitable for personal herbal rituals as well as practitioner-guided formulations.

Riddhish Herbals ensures that each Baheda fruit is carefully cleaned, sun-dried and preserved in its natural structure without artificial treatment. By offering Baheda in Akha (whole fruit) format, the product stays close to its original botanical form and traditional value.

This product is best suited for individuals who prefer authentic Ayurvedic raw material, culinary herbs and classical herbal practices rather than pre-ground formulations.
