Gokshur Powder | Tribulus Terrestris Churna | Riddhish Herbals 100g

About Gokshura Powder (Gokshur)

Gokshura Powder is a pure single-herb churna made from the dried fruit of Tribulus terrestris, the plant known in Ayurveda as Gokshura and in everyday Hindi as Gokharu. The Sanskrit name means "cow's hoof," after the shape of its small spiny fruit. Riddhish Herbals offers it as 100% Gokshur fruit powder — no blends, no fillers, no preservatives — manufactured in a GMP-, ISO 9001:2015- and HACCP-certified facility (Mfg. Lic. GA/1762).

This is one of Ayurveda's classically documented herbs, valued for centuries as a gentle daily tonic. It is widely used as a single powder and also forms the base of well-known classical preparations such as Gokshuradi Guggulu.

Traditional Ayurvedic Importance

Gokshura is classically described in the Bhavaprakasha Nighantu (Guduchyadi Varga) as a herb traditionally valued for Mutrala (urinary support) and Vrishya (rejuvenative) qualities. Charaka Samhita places it within the Mutravirechaniya Mahakashaya (Sutrasthana, Ch. 4), the classical group associated with the urinary channel (mutravaha srotas), while Sushruta Samhita lists it among the Pittasamshamana herbs. It also appears in the Gujarati Ayurvedic compendium Aaryabhishak, a reference printed on Riddhish Herbals own-brand labels.

In classical pharmacology Gokshura carries Madhura (sweet) rasa, Sheeta (cooling) virya and Madhura vipaka, and is regarded as Balya (strengthening). Traditionally the powder is taken with warm water or milk as the anupan, usually as part of a steady daily routine rather than for quick effect.

Research and Scientific References

Gokshura has been the subject of published phytochemical research.
