About Hadjod Churna (Asthisamharaka)
Hadjod — Cissus quadrangularis — is a square-stemmed climbing herb known across India as the ‘bone-setter’ plant, and in Sanskrit as Asthisamharaka and Vajravalli. Its very name reflects its long classical association with the bone tissue (Asthi dhatu). This churna is the milled whole plant.
Riddhish Herbals supplies it as a clean single-material Hadjod powder under our doctor-guided selection standard, with a bill on every order. Its warming, astringent, Vata-settling nature has made it a long-standing herb for strength and stability, used within a physician-guided routine.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
Classical texts describe Hadjod (Asthisamharaka) as Kashaya (astringent) in Rasa, Laghu and Ruksha in Guna, Ushna in Virya, with a Vatahara (Vata-settling) and Asthisandhanaka (bone-uniting) character. Its Sanskrit names — Asthisamharaka, Asthishrinkhala, Vajravalli — all point to its classical place in supporting the Asthi dhatu (bone tissue).
Because of this classical association, Hadjod is traditionally taken as a churna with a suitable anupana (warm milk, water or honey) within a physician-guided routine, with the amount chosen by a Vaidya to suit each person.
