Ayurvedic jam MamsaPrash, Everest Ayurveda, 200g

Mamsaprash is a nutritional herbal jam that can help restore muscle tissue and optimise physical strength. Tissue damage is caused by inadequate protein intake and an irregular daily diet, leading to weak body composition, underdeveloped musculature, musculoskeletal stiffness, back pain and bulging discs. Additional problems include tendon and joint inflammation, incoordination, mummy formation, hernia, fatigue, anxiety, lack of self-confidence and mental instability.

Quantity: 200g herbal jam

Recommended dosage: 1 teaspoon (5g) 2-3 times a day on its own or with a cup of lukewarm milk or water. To prepare the drink, mix 1 teaspoon (5 g) with 250 ml warm water.

Intake:

Ayurvedic herbal elixirs improve the nourishment of body tissues (dhatus) and purification of body systems (srotamsi). They are part of the Ayurvedic body-mind rejuvenation and revitalisation therapy (rasayana). They are traditionally used with a cup of warm milk or water, which are commonly used in Ayurvedic medicine as a medium or environment (anupama) to prepare, use, guide and better absorb the health effects of herbs or supplements. Other mediums that enhance the therapeutic functioning of the herbs (vehikula) are honey, sugar cane or raw syrup, clarified melted butter (ghee) or oil.

We recommend using a maximum of two herbal elixirs at a time. More elixirs can be substituted throughout the day or week if they are used to normalise symptoms of a distorted body or mind balance. For optimum effect, use only one elixir at a time, taking a one-hour break before meals. For more complex therapies to restore the body and mind, the elixirs should be used for a longer period of Ayurvedic treatments, between 1 and 3 months, dosed as indicated on the label. The specific flavour of each elixir reflects part of its therapeutic action and corresponds to the Ayurvedic properties of the six flavours.

Because of its properties, the Ayurvedic system recognises lukewarm or boiled milk as a common ingredient in health recipes. It reduces the heat of Pitta dosha and calms troubled emotions. It is also an excellent food and a healthy tonic for people whose predominant condition is Vata dosha. Milk enhances the formation of the vital force, which is the essence of a healthy immune system, linked to the effective presence of Kapha dosha. People with sensitive digestion or slow metabolism may experience digestive disturbances after consuming milk. In this case, add some ginger, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon or nutmeg to the milk to improve the digestive fire. Organic milk is always preferable.

A balanced, complete diet and a healthy lifestyle are important.

Keep away from children. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Store in a dry place at a temperature below 25 °C.
