Bala is highly praised as a brihmhana (a bulk promoting herb), balya (a tonic), prajasthapana (promoting reproduction), rasayana (rejuvenative to muscle tissue) and vata samshamana (pacifies the vata dosha). Bala is sweet in taste and has a post digestive effect. Bala is extremely beneficial in vata diseases associated with or due to wasting. It enhances the bulk and rejuvenates the muscle tissue and pacifies vata dosha. Other ingredients like Ashwagandha, Kshirakakoli, Eranda, Prasarini, Gokshura and Rasna are potent alleviators of vata. Hence, Balarishita is a great panacea for muscle wasting diseases, tremors, debility, vertigo, insomnia etc which originate due to aggravation of vata dosha. Recommended Dosage: 1 to 2 table spoonful (15 to 30ml) with equal quantity of water twice a day after meals. |
