Chyawanprash, the delicious and nutritious jam you should be taking every morning! The advantages of Chyawanprash are numerous, which is why this herbal superfood has been around for thousands of years. Adding Chyawanprash into your daily routine will help strengthen all the tissues in your body, support your agni (digestive fire), and increase your overall vitality for a vibrant life.
Strengthens All Tissues in Your Body
The magic behind Chyawanprash is that it can directly target and strengthen all tissues in your body because of its use of anupanas. Anupanas are carrier substances that can help catalyze the delivery of a specific herb or formula deep into a specific tissue or channel to magnify its effect. Honey, jaggery, ghee and black sesame oil all act as powerful anupanas for specific tissues and channels in the body. When they are combined together, these anupana's complement each other to have an elemental and comprehensive effect to nourish all tissues and channels. PIOR Living Chyawanprash carefully crafted their formula to combine 30+ powerful organic and wild-crafted spices and herbs with these anupanas to deliver powerful nutrients deep into all the tissues of the body.
Supports Agni
Chyawanprash is also known to support and strengthen your agni. Having a strong agni, or digestive fire, plays an essential role in your overall health. Our agni governs our digestion, absorption and assimilation of nutrients from food and all other senses we take in. Ayurveda states that every disease can be traced back to an imbalance in the digestive system, so it is important to keep your agni strong. You can think of your agni like a campfire. If you have a strong fire, food will be optimally digested. If you have a weak fire, food will be more difficult to digest and may cause indigestion. Chyawanprash acts as the match that lights and strengthens your campfire (agni).
Increases Vitality
Chyawanprash is known as the nectar of longevity! It provides a sense of youthfulness to those who take it regularly because of the strength it provides to one’s immune system and health. Imagine looking into a mirror in twenty years and looking like you haven’t aged a day! With a supportive diet and lifestyle, Chyawanprash can help increase your vitality. It is an extremely nourishing formula as it carries the qualities of hot, heavy and oily. These qualities provide structure and stability to our human vessel and give us more sustained energy throughout our life!
