Product Description of Kottakkal Kutajarishtam
Kottakkal Kutajarishtam is a time-tested, liquid Ayurvedic remedy that’s been around for centuries. Developed by expert vaidyas in the heartland of Kerala, it delivers a blend of potent herbs with a natural self-generated alcohol as the extraction medium. This formula has a slightly sour, earthy taste that some love and others, uh, may take time to get used to but that’s the nature of powerful herbal extracts. It's widely used to manage various digestive issues like diarrheoa, dysentery or irritable bowel syndrome and even to soothe occasional fevers. Mixed with water it becomes milder, and frankly… I sometimes mix with a bit of honey to ease the taste fo my kids—though always best after a doc’s advice. One or two small doses a day after meals is usually suggested; adjust with water as needed for comfort. Overall, it's a staple for anyone seeking natural gut support though, you know, it’s kind of intense for first timers.
