Bhringraj Powder is the pure whole-plant churna of Eclipta alba (100%), the classical Keshya (“king of hair”) herb of Ayurveda, milled fine for traditional hair and scalp care — 100g, nothing blended in.
Few herbs carry a name as telling as this one. Bhringraj — also written Bhringaraj or Bhangra — translates loosely as “king of hair,” and Ayurvedic texts have leaned on it for hair and scalp routines for well over a thousand years. What you see on the label is what is in the pack: Eclipta alba (whole plant) 100%.
About Bhringraj Powder
This is the pure whole-plant powder of Eclipta alba, milled fine and packed at 100 grams. In traditional practice the whole herb — not only the leaf — is used, which is why our label and this listing specify whole plant. Riddhish Herbals has supplied genuine Ayurvedic herbs across India since 2015, with a bill and doctor-guided selection on every order.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
Classical Ayurveda groups Bhringraj among the Keshya dravyas — herbs traditionally valued for the hair. It appears in the Bhavaprakasha Nighantu and Raj Nighantu, and the Gujarati compendium Aaryabhishak describes its long-standing use in hair and scalp routines. The plant is also regarded as a Rasayana (rejuvenative) in classical literature. Its traditional reputation for supporting dark, strong, well-conditioned hair is the reason it anchors so many classical hair oils and packs.

Research & Scientific References
Eclipta alba has been the subject of published research exploring its traditionally recognised role in hair care. In one peer-reviewed study, a whole-plant methanol extract was observed to support hair-growth activity in an animal model under study conditions. (Datta et al., 2009 — Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 124(3):450–456)
Results observed in study conditions. Individual results may vary. Consult your Ayurvedic physician before use.
How to Use
