🔹 DESCRIPTION

In Ayurveda, true wellbeing is rooted in balance — balance of digestion (Agni), internal tissues, and daily habits. Riddhish Herbals Kantalo Mayu Churna is prepared using time-honoured Ayurvedic knowledge, focusing on purity, simplicity and traditional relevance.

Kantalo Mayu, botanically known as Quercus infectoria and commonly referred to as Majuphal, has been mentioned in classical Ayurvedic texts for its naturally astringent and stabilising properties. Traditionally, it has been used as part of wellness routines that aim to maintain digestive harmony, internal balance and tissue tone.

Modern lifestyles often involve irregular eating patterns, travel, stress and inconsistent routines. Such factors can influence digestive comfort and overall wellbeing. Kantalo Mayu Churna is designed to integrate gently into daily life as a supportive herbal powder, aligning with Ayurveda’s preventive and promotive approach rather than reactive use.

This churna is prepared in its natural powdered form to retain the traditional essence of the herb. It may be consumed with warm water, honey or other advised anupana as part of mindful self-care rituals. Many Ayurvedic practitioners also value Kantalo Mayu for its external applications in traditional skin and oral care practices.

Suitable for individuals who prefer single-ingredient Ayurvedic products, this churna reflects a minimalistic yet powerful herbal philosophy — respecting nature, tradition and conscious living. When combined with balanced meals, proper hydration and disciplined routines, Kantalo Mayu Churna can be a meaningful addition to an Ayurvedic lifestyle.

Modern scientific research has explored Quercus infectoria for its naturally occurring tannins and antioxidant compounds. Experimental and observational studies have examined its traditional relevance in supporting antioxidant status, microbial balance and tissue integrity when used as part of holistic wellness practices.¹²

These findings align with its long-standing mention in classical systems of traditional medicine, where it has been described as supportive for balance and stability rather than for targeted medical intervention.
