✅ Ayurvedic Benefits & Primary Uses

Digestive & Gastrointestinal Support

• Traditionally used in conditions like atisaara (diarrhea/dysentery), grihani, gastritis, IBS, and indigestion. Musta calms Aama and soothes the gut lining. Dosage: typically 3–6 g as churna or a 50–100 ml decoction after meals.

Cooling & Moisture‑Reducing Effects

• Reduces excess thirst, burning sensations, and gastrointestinal inflammation due to its astringent, bitter and cooling nature (Rasa: Tikta, Katu, Kaṣāya; Lu‑gu, Rukṣa; Śīta veerya; Katu vipāka).

Metabolic Balance & Fever Support

• Supports healthy liver and urinary function, aids metabolic rate, and is used in fever, excess Kapha–Pitta or inflammatory states.

Women’s Health & Lactation

• Traditionally used to regulate menstrual cycles, ease dysmenorrhea, and improve lactation—especially in postpartum care.

Skin & Dermatological Use

• Used topically for cooling inflammation, reducing sweat and moisture irritation: may be dusted over ulcers, rashes, or prickly heat after oil application.
