Oh, you’ve mixed up a bit there; Garike Hullu is not the same as Khus grass. Garike Hullu actually refers to Bermuda grass, also known as Cynodon dactylon. It’s quite esteemed in Ayurveda for its cooling and soothing properties, and you’ll find it’s used in various traditional remedies.
Bermuda grass is often applied for treating conditions like fever, headaches, and digestive issues, due to its pitta-pacifying and kapha-balancing qualities. In fever, it’s used because it helps lower high body temperature. For headaches, its cooling nature offers relief by countering heat and inflammation.
For digestive problems, Garike Hullu’s high fiber content supports healthy digestion and encourages a smooth bowel movement. You can brew it as a tea—just steep a few fresh, clean blades in hot water for a few minutes, then strain and drink. This tea could be taken, say once or twice a day.
When it comes to skin health, Bermuda grass juice or paste works wonders. It hydrates, and soothes irritation. Some folks also use it in a face pack or poultice for inflammatory skin conditions. For stress reduction, it’s considered effective because, well, it gently calms the mind, especially when consumed as an infusion or in a bath.
However, always remember that this grass—like any herb—could cause reactions in some people. It’s a good idea to do a patch test if you’re applying it externally, and consult with a healthcare professional if you have sensitive skin or plant allergies. Ingesting large quantities is a no-go, as it might upset your stomach or interact with specific meds.
Overall, it’s cost-effective, but should be used with caution. Tailor its use to your unique constitution, and think about any existing conditions you have.
