What is the Telugu name for Mulethi powder, and how is it used in Ayurveda? - #12276
I recently came across Mulethi powder (Licorice root powder) and learned that it has several medicinal benefits in Ayurveda, especially for throat infections, digestion, and immunity. However, I am curious to know what is Mulethi powder in Telugu name, and how it is traditionally used in Telugu households and Ayurvedic medicine. Since Ayurveda is deeply rooted in India, many herbs have different names in regional languages. I want to know whether Mulethi is commonly used in Telugu-speaking regions, or if it has a different name that people recognize better. Also, is Mulethi powder a part of traditional Telugu herbal medicine? One of the most well-known benefits of Mulethi powder is its ability to soothe the throat and relieve cough and cold. I often suffer from dry cough and throat irritation, and I have heard that drinking Mulethi tea or chewing Mulethi sticks helps in clearing mucus and reducing inflammation. What is the best way to use Mulethi for fast throat relief, and should it be taken with honey, warm water, or milk? Apart from respiratory health, I read that Mulethi is good for digestion and helps with acidity and gastritis. Since I sometimes experience acid reflux and bloating, can Mulethi powder be taken daily to improve gut health? Also, should it be consumed before meals or after meals for better digestion? Another major benefit of Mulethi powder is its role in boosting immunity. Some people recommend taking Mulethi with Amla or Giloy for stronger immune support. How does Mulethi powder help in preventing infections, and how should it be taken for long-term immunity benefits? I also read that Mulethi is used for skin and hair care. Some Ayurvedic beauty treatments include Mulethi powder in face masks for glowing skin and as a scalp treatment for hair growth. Has anyone used Mulethi topically for skin or hair problems? If so, what’s the best way to apply it? Additionally, I am curious to know if Mulethi is beneficial for stress relief and mental health. Some sources say that it helps in reducing anxiety and improving focus. How should it be consumed to calm the mind and balance hormones? Finally, I want to understand whether Mulethi has any side effects or restrictions. Since it is known to have an effect on blood pressure and water retention, should people with hypertension or kidney problems avoid it? Also, is it safe for pregnant women and children? If anyone has experience using Mulethi powder in Telugu medicine or knows its Telugu name, I would love to hear about how it is used in Ayurvedic treatments. How do people in Telugu households incorporate it into their daily health routine? Looking forward to your insights!
