Lohasava is a classical fermented Ayurvedic liquid (asava) made by Virgo UAP Pharma in which Loha Churna (classically processed iron) is combined with Trikatu, Triphala, Chitraka, Vidanga and Musta, and matured with its own naturally generated alcohol (not more than 12% v/v). In classical Ayurveda it is a Deepana-Pachana and Balya preparation, traditionally valued in the context of Pandu and for daily strength. Amalaki (Emblica officinalis), one of its constituents, has itself been reviewed in the modern research literature (peer-reviewed review, 2016 — Pharmacological Research).
About Lohasava
Lohasava is a classical fermented Ayurvedic tonic (asava) in which Loha Churna — iron prepared by classical Ayurvedic methods — is the lead dravya. Manufactured by Virgo UAP Pharma and supplied by Riddhish Herbals, it follows the Bharat Bhaishajya Ratnakar (B.B.R.-6300) reference printed on the pack.
Around the Loha base the formula gathers Trikatu (Shunthi, Pippali, Maricha), the three Triphala fruits, Ajamoda, Vidanga, Musta and Chitraka, with Dhataki flowers driving the fermentation. Lohasava is one of Ayurveda's classic Deepana-and-Balya liquids.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
In classical Ayurveda, Loha (processed iron) is a valued Balya and Rasayana dravya, and Lohasava is described in the Bharat Bhaishajya Ratnakar in the context of Pandu and Agnimandya — where kindling Agni (digestive fire) and building strength are the goal.
The Trikatu spices and Chitraka (Plumbago zeylanica) make the formula strongly Deepana-Pachana, while Triphala supports gentle internal cleansing. Dhataki (Woodfordia fruticosa) is the Sandhana dravya that gives the asava its self-generated alcohol and long shelf stability.
