Description

In Ayurveda, true wellbeing begins with balance — not just of the body, but also of internal energies and daily habits. Riddhish Herbals Punarnavashtak Kwath is prepared using classical Ayurvedic knowledge and time-honoured decoction techniques. This traditional herbal blend is rooted deeply in ancient texts where Punarnava and its associated herbs are cherished for promoting internal stability and natural equilibrium.

The name Punarnavashtak reflects a combination of eight botanicals, each traditionally selected for their unique supportive properties. The kwatha form, converted into for convenience, allows this formulation to easily integrate into daily routines while preserving the integrity of the herbs.

Punarnava, the primary ingredient, holds a special position in Ayurveda for its traditional association with natural fluid management and overall internal cleanliness. When combined with herbs like Guduchi, Devdaru and Haritaki, the formula becomes a harmonious blend that reflects Ayurveda’s holistic philosophy — that wellness is not shaped by one organ, but by the interconnected workings of the body as a whole.

Modern lifestyles marked by irregular eating patterns, long working hours, dehydration and physical inactivity often disturb natural balance. This herbal formulation is often incorporated into routine self-care regimens by individuals seeking to support long-term wellness through traditional practices.

Punarnavashtak Kwath is not positioned as a medicine, but rather as a classical wellness-oriented herbal formulation that aligns with Ayurveda’s principle of prevention and internal purification through balance, moderation and consistency.

It is ideal for individuals looking to include natural, plant-based and culturally rooted formulations into their wellness lifestyle in a mindful manner. As always, Ayurveda emphasises individual constitution (Prakriti), digestion (Agni) and daily routine (Dinacharya) when considering long-term use.
