Ayurveda herbs and their benefits
Ashwagandha
Also called Indian Ginseng, an adaptogenic herb that shows incredible health results. Indian ginseng can help reduce cortisol and balance thyroid hormones. It also has the ability to increase resistance and contains extraordinary properties for stress relief.
Guduchi (Amrita)
Its name means “immortality”. Highly valued in India, as it is known as the elixir of life and the protector of the body, since it strengthens the immune system, tones the body and opens the appetite. Thus, it is used for liver or heart problems, as it cleans the arteries and stabilizes blood pressure. It is indeed one of the greatest Ayurveda herbs.
Brahmi
Brahmi has astringent properties (it dries and contracts the mucous membranes), a bitter and sweet flavor and a refreshing potency. This is one of the Ayurveda herbs that balance Vata and Kapha Dosha. In the psycho-emotional area, it has positive effects on anxiety, insomnia, and the promotion of brain functions such as memory and intellect integrity. It is considered a rasayana (rejuvenating) for the mind.
Triphala

According to Ayurveda, we use it individually to balance Vata, pitta and Kapha. Although it is bitter, it has a great impact on our skin, making the complexion clear and flawless. It also helps:
- To build a strong immunity system;
