Khadirarishta - Sandu

🌿 Sandu Khadirarishta

Sandu Khadirarishta is a traditional fermented herbal formulation (Arishta) widely used as a blood purifier and digestive tonic, especially indicated in chronic skin disorders such as eczema, itching, hyperpigmentation, acne, vitiligo, and persistent dermatological issues linked to digestive imbalance or worm infestation.

It’s also recognized for alleviating:

• Indigestion-related skin problems

• Intestinal worms and anemia

• Associated issues such as non-healing wounds, fungal infections, mild cough or breathlessness secondary to toxicity or skin disease

🧪 Ingredients 

Contains a blend of potent botanicals:

• Khadira (Acacia catechu) – a powerful astringent and blood cleanser

• Bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia) – used in skin conditions like eczema and vitiligo

• Daruharidra (Berberis aristata) – anti-inflammatory antioxidant

• Triphala (Amla, Haritaki, Bibhitaki) – detoxifying digestive aid

• Dalchini (Cinnamon) – antimicrobial, supports digestion and circulation 

The fermented base contains approximately 5–10% self-generated alcohol, which enhances extraction and absorption of active components.
