Product Description
Vernacular Names & Parts Used
Chaulmoogra Seeds, botanically identified as Hydnocarpus Wightianus, are commonly known as Chalmogra Beej in Hindi and Chaulmoogra Seeds in English. The fully matured seeds (Beej) are the primary part used, traditionally valued for their oil content and therapeutic significance in classical Ayurvedic texts.
Ayurvedic Properties & Common Uses
According to Ayurveda, Chaulmoogra exhibits Tikta (bitter) and Katu (pungent) rasa, with Ushna (heating) virya, making it suitable for balancing Kapha and Vata doshas. The seeds are traditionally processed to extract Chaulmoogra oil, which is widely referenced in classical Ayurvedic formulations and external applications.
Ayurvedic literature highlights the importance of proper Shodhana (purification) and expert formulation due to the herb’s potency. Chaulmoogra Seeds are commonly used in medicated oils, lepa (herbal pastes), and traditional preparations, with dosage and application guided strictly by qualified practitioners.
