Sankhpushpi Powder (Churna) 100g | Convolvulus pluricaulis | Riddhish Herbals

Sankhpushpi Churna is a single-herb Ayurvedic powder of Convolvulus pluricaulis (100%) — the classical Medhya (intellect-supporting) herb, traditionally valued for buddhi (intellect), smriti (memory) and a calm, steady mind.

Shankhpushpi is one of the most respected herbs of classical Ayurveda, traditionally grouped among the Medhya Rasayana dravyas. This churna is prepared from carefully sourced, sun-dried Convolvulus pluricaulis and finely powdered, with nothing added — no fillers, colours or preservatives. It is a gentle (saumya) herb traditionally considered suitable for regular daily use.

About Sankhpushpi

A useful point of clarity: “Shankhpushpi” is a name shared by a few botanically different plants across India. This pack is Convolvulus pluricaulis, exactly as declared on the label (Mfg. Lic. No. GA/1762) — so you know precisely which species you are buying. Riddhish Herbals has supplied genuine Ayurvedic products across India since 2015.

Traditional Ayurvedic Importance

In classical Ayurveda, Shankhpushpi is counted among the Medhya (intellect-supporting) dravyas — herbs traditionally taken to nourish the mind. It is described as Tikta (bitter) in rasa, Snigdha in guna and Sheeta (cooling) in virya. The Bhavaprakasha Nighantu records Shankhpushpi among the herbs valued for the mind, and classical practice places it within the Medhya Rasayana tradition for supporting intellect (buddhi), memory (smriti) and a calm, steady mind. It appears in well-known classical preparations taken to support cognition, and was valued as part of daily Rasayana routines rather than as a quick remedy.
