Product Description
Vernacular Names & Parts Used
Banyan Aerial Roots Powder is derived from the aerial prop roots of the Banyan tree, botanically known as Ficus Benghalensis. It is commonly referred to as Vat, Vata Vriksha, or Bargad in Hindi and Sanskrit traditions, and Banyan Tree in English. The aerial roots (Latika / Jata) hanging from mature branches are traditionally harvested, dried, and finely powdered for Ayurvedic use.
Ayurvedic Properties & Common Uses
According to Ayurveda, Ficus Benghalensis possesses Kashaya (astringent) and Madhura (sweet) rasa, Sheeta (cooling) virya, and exhibits Kapha–Pitta balancing properties. Banyan Aerial Roots Powder is traditionally used in classical formulations for joint support, metabolic balance, reproductive health support, and overall tissue strengthening.
The powder is commonly used in Churna preparations, decoctions (Kwath), and compound Ayurvedic formulations, either alone or combined with other herbs. Classical Ayurvedic texts describe its traditional role in supporting musculoskeletal stability, internal balance, and long-term wellness, with dosage and method of use determined by formulation requirements and practitioner guidance.
