Ayurvedic Properties & Common Uses

In Ayurveda, Kuchla Seeds are described as possessing Tikta (bitter) and Katu (pungent) rasa, with Ushna virya, traditionally associated with Vata-Kapha balancing properties. Classical references highlight Kuchla for nervous system tonics, rejuvenating Rasayanas, digestive support, and inclusion in controlled medicinal formulations.

Kuchla Seeds Powder is widely used as a raw material for Ayurvedic pharmaceutical preparations, herbal tonics, and traditional herbal industries. Due to its potent and toxic nature, strict detoxification, precise processing, correct dosage, and expert supervision are essential for safe and effective use.
