Patol Patra Churna from Riddhish Herbals is a single-herb Ayurvedic powder made from the dried leaves (Patra) of Patola, classically identified as Trichosanthes dioica Roxb. (pointed gourd, Parwal), a Cucurbitaceae-family plant. Classical Ayurvedic Nighantu texts describe Patola as Tikta (bitter), Pitta-Kapha pacifying, Deepaniya (digestive) and Raktashodhaka (blood-purifying), used within a physician-guided wellness routine. Each pack is genuine, bill-provided material from a doctor-guided store operating since 2015.

About Patol Patra Churna
Patol Patra Churna is a single-ingredient powder prepared from the dried leaves of Patola, a classical Ayurvedic herb referenced extensively in Nighantu literature. Riddhish Herbals supplies it as a simple, single-material raw powder, with no other herbs blended in.
A scholarly identity note: Patola is classically identified in most Dravyaguna texts as Trichosanthes dioica Roxb. (pointed gourd/Parwal), the plant this leaf powder is sourced from. The closely related Trichosanthes cucumerina (snake gourd) is sometimes conflated with Patola in trade listings, but is treated here as a distinct, related species rather than an interchangeable synonym.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
Classical Ayurvedic Nighantu texts (e.g. Bhavaprakasha Nighantu, Guduchyadi Varga) describe Patola as Tikta Rasa, Pitta-Kapha Shamaka (pacifying), Deepaniya and Raktashodhaka — properties traditionally used within physician-guided digestive-wellness and skin-wellness routines.
Modern phytochemical research has also studied Trichosanthes dioica's chemical constituents and traditional pharmacological applications (see Research & Scientific References below).
