Musta root powder

(Cyperus rotundus)

Supports regular, comfortable menstruation and promotes healthy digestion*

  • Supports a regular, healthy menstrual cycle*
  • Promotes lower abdominal comfort*
  • Enkindles digestion without aggravating pitta*
  • Supports proper function of the liver*

Ayurvedic Energetics:
  • Rasa (taste): pungent, bitter, astringent
  • Virya (action): cooling
  • Vipaka (post-digestive effect): pungent
  • Doshas (constitutions): Balancing for pitta and kapha, may increase vata.
Commentary:
Musta is considered one of the best Ayurvedic herbs for promoting healthy, regular menstruation. It regulates both pitta and vata in the lower abdomen supporting a comfortable, natural flow. Soothing to the mind, Musta helps balance the emotions in the days prior to and during menstruation. It also promotes breast comfort and helps maintain a healthy balance of fluids in the body. Musta's ability to promote lower abdominal comfort also includes the GI tract. Without aggravating pitta, it strengthens digestion, eliminates natural toxins, and supports proper function of the liver. Musta promotes healthy absorption, well-formed stools and the metabolism of fat. Its cooling and cleansing action also supports healthy skin and helps maintain a normal body temperature.*
