Bilagarbha Churna (Bilva Garbha) from Riddhish Herbals is a single-herb powder of the dried inner pulp (Phala Majja) of unripe Bilva — the bael fruit, Aegle marmelos (L.) Corrêa. In Ayurveda, unripe Bilva is the classic Grahi (gut-toning, absorbent), Deepana (kindles Agni) and Pachana (aids digestion) fruit, taken with warm water or buttermilk as directed by a qualified Ayurvedic physician.
About Bilagarbha Churna
Bilva — the bael or Bengal quince — is among the most revered fruits in Ayurveda, its unripe pulp valued for steadying and toning the gut. This churna is the Garbha, the inner fruit-pulp (Phala Majja) of unripe bael, dried and powdered.
Riddhish Herbals mills the dried inner pulp of unripe bael into a fine Bilagarbha Churna, so the fruit's classical Grahi and Deepana qualities can be taken conveniently as part of a daily routine.
Each 100g pack contains only bael inner-fruit powder — a single-herb churna with nothing added.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
Bhavaprakasha Nighantu (Guduchyadi Varga) describes unripe Bilva phala as Grahi, Deepana and Pachana — astringent and gut-toning, kindling of Agni, and supportive of comfortable digestion. Classical texts place the unripe fruit among the dravyas used to steady the Grahani (the seat of digestion) and to support firm, regular bowel function.
Its predominant Kashaya (astringent) and Tikta (bitter) Rasa make it traditionally Vata-Kapha pacifying; a Vaidya matches the amount and the anupana — warm water, buttermilk or honey — to each person's constitution.

Safety Information
Bilagarbha Churna is a single food-class bael-fruit powder. Because its astringent Rasa is drying and gut-firming, those prone to hard or infrequent stools should use it modestly and with adequate fluids. Consult a qualified Ayurvedic physician before use if pregnant, lactating, on medication or managing any condition. Keep out of reach of children. Results may vary from person to person.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place in a tightly closed airtight container, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Use a clean, dry spoon to keep the powder free-flowing.
