Description

Asparagus Racemosus or Shatavari is an Ayurveda herb widely recommended for women’s’ reproductive health.. The term Shatavari means a woman with “one hundred husbands” possibly derived from the plant’s hundred tuberous roots.

Shatavari grows in tropical parts of India and in the Himalayas. It is also found in southern Asia, Africa and Australia. It is a bitter and sweet herb, well known for its tonic and therapeutic properties.

Shatavari – The Queen of Herbs
Shatavari is considered natures’ gift to women and is often called the “queen of herbs”. It helps to nourish a woman’s reproductive system and makes the womb ready for conception by maintaining a healthy mucous lining. Shatavari is very effective in maintaining healthy hormonal balance in women and regularizing menstruation. It helps to alleviate PMS and enhance libido in women

Shatavari is widely used as a post natal tonic and is a very effective galactogogue. It enhances secretion of milk during lactation and helps to increase the quantity as well as the quality of the breast milk. Shatavari restores hormonal balance and rejuvenates the body after childbirth.

Shatavari and its benefits

Shatavari has high medicinal value and can be used to treat various medical conditions in women as well as men across all ages. The herb is highly mucilaginous and has aphrodisiac, anabolic and antispasmodic effect.

In women Shatavari helps to:-

Keep the female reproductive organs toned and nourished
Treat infertility and prevent abortion
Treat Irregular Menstruation and Ovulation
Treat pre menstrual syndrome - PMS and dysmenorrhea
It relieves pain and controls the loss of blood during menstruation
Treat amenorrhea, leucorrhea
Delay early onset of menopause
Treat pelvic inflammatory diseases

Shatavari is also a great general tonic for people of all ages and can be used to improve strength in the human body. It strengthens muscle tone, moistens the dry tissues in the lungs, kidney and stomach and is also used to treat male impotence.

The green, shiny, small leaves and finger like, cluster roots are used for various medicinal purposes. The oil extract is used for general body massages, headaches and applied to strengthen the muscle and joints in the body. The paste prepared from the fresh green leaves of Shatavari is applied on the affected parts of the skin during smallpox to reduce burning sensation. The fresh juice from the roots is mixed with honey and helps to reduce the pain in tumors.

Shatavari as a general tonic:

The male reproductive organs are also benefited by the herb in cases of impotence, spermatorrhea and sexual debility.
In cases of bronchitis and chronic fever it sooths the dry membranes in the respiratory tract.
It improves the functioning of the immune system and the digestive system
It helps to maintain hormonal balance in the body

Shatavari is used to treat dyspepsia. The results were found similar when it was compared with the modern drug metoclopramide used to treat the same condition. Shatavari imparts the same effect as ranitidine hydrochloride, a modern drug used in the treatment of stomach acid and ulcers.

Composition of Shatavari

Continue this for 12 weeks and after 12 weeks
take M2 tone and Shatavari one tablet each twice daily.

if you have blood sugar levels of 75-85 lower your intake of starchy and sweet foods
like sugar, cola drinks, potato, sweet potato, polished rice and white flour.
