What are the health benefits of Arka leaf and how is it used in Ayurvedic medicine? - #13746
I’ve been hearing a lot about Arka leaf benefits lately, particularly for its medicinal properties in Ayurveda. I’m curious about what makes Arka leaf so beneficial and how it can help with conditions like digestive issues, respiratory problems, and skin health. From what I’ve learned, Arka leaf (Calotropis gigantea) is used in Ayurveda for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and detoxifying properties. It’s believed to help improve digestion, clear respiratory congestion, and treat skin disorders. Some Ayurvedic preparations use Arka leaf for purging toxins and improving immunity. Has anyone used Arka leaf in any form—whether as a juice, powder, or oil? What benefits did you notice, and how did you incorporate it into your health routine? Another thing—are there any precautions to take when using Arka leaf, as it can be toxic in large doses? How should it be used safely? Would love to hear from anyone who has used Arka leaf for health benefits!
