Product Description of Kottakkal Avipathi Churnam

Kottakkal Avipathi Churnam is a centuries-old herbal powder crafted in accordance with classical Kerala Ayurveda principles. Rooted in the wisdom of Charaka and Sushruta traditions, this blend brings together carefully measured herbs that are known to pacify Pitta dosha, those fiery forces that can bring discomfort, acidity or heat reactions. Whether after a long, hot day under the sun or following a rich, spicy meal, it seeks to restore a gentle balance in the digestive tract and beyond.

Each pinch of this fine powder evokes old-world remedies handed down through generations at the famed Arya Vaidya Sala in Kottakkal. There's a rustic warmth to its aroma: the slight pungency of pepper, the sweetness of cardamom, the fresh leafy fragrance of cinnamon, all grounded by a whisper of nut grass. While it’s predominantly for Pitta-related woes—like heartburn, excessive thirst, sun-induced fatigue, or mild jaundice—it also gently invigorates your metabolism and offers mild detox support. Some of my clients mention reduced headaches after just a day or two, though results vary. Personally, I find it comforting with warm water or as a bolus with honey before bed. Oh, and don’t forget you can adjust dose to suit your tolerance, just keep it within recommended limits.
