About Gandharva Haritaki Tablet — Shree Shanker Ayurved

The name "Erand Bhrust Harde" describes its preparation in three parts: Erand is the Sanskrit name for the castor plant, Ricinus communis; Bhrust means "roasted" — in classical Ayurvedic processing, this indicates the ingredients have gone through a roasting (heat-processing) step to moderate their properties; and Harde is Haritaki, Terminalia chebula. Together, "Erand Bhrust Harde" refers to a preparation in which Erand Tail (castor seed oil) and Haritaki have been processed together — also known by its Sanskrit name, Gandharva Haritaki.
