Are you asking about Thaamra??

Ayurveda has two brances for treatment, one is Bhaishajya kalpana(treating the disease with herbal medicines and herbal extracts) and the other is Rasa Shastra(Chemistry and metallurgy in ayurveda). In rasa shastra the different metals,its purifications and proper usages are mentioning.While using the drugs its important to ensure the proper purifications before administration Thamra as per chemistry its copper.While coming to ayurveda,in pandu roga chikitsa( treatments for anemia),many references are there to prepare in thaamra paatra(utensils made out of copper). Daily usage of any rasa medicine is not preferable,after proper consultation from an ayurveda Rasa shastra scholar you can take thaamra bhasma with proper dietary regimen(Pathya).Most of the the time its suggesting to use thaamra along with honey.Also there are many herbo mineral combinations are there for treating anemia,you can try it like punarnava mandooram,Navayasa choornam. Triphala choornam is another effective medicine for anemia Preferable dosage of taamra as per authentic references are 65-250 mg for a maximum of 45 days

Thamira, in Ayurvedic terms, refers to essentially copper which is a trace element and holds an important place in balancing doshas and bolstering certain body functions. It’s not the same as iron, but it plays a vital role in how well your body processes iron. So, if your iron levels are low, adding sources of thamira can support better absorption and utilization of the iron, helping elevate energy levels and combatting fatigue.

Now, incorporating thamira in your daily life can be quite practical. An age-old method is drinking water stored overnight in a copper vessel. This allows minute quantities of copper to dissolve in the water, slightly infusing it with copper ions. Start gently by sipping this on empty stomach first thing in the morning, and you can gradually incorporate this into your daily routine.

Regarding dosage and how you can check if you’re getting enough, Ayurveda suggest moderation; excessive copper can actually be harmful. So, monitor how your body responds, and do this under the guidance of your healthcare professional, especially if you’re simultaneously addressing low iron.

Besides, you should focus on foods rich in vitamin C along with your iron-rich meals as they can help improve iron absorption. Combining them, like having an orange or lemon salad with spinach, could be beneficial.

Remember that including iron-rich herbs like Moringa or sesame seeds, along with regular check-ups to monitor your iron levels, is key, especially when you’re feeling persistently tired. Blood tests can track your progress so you know what balance works.

Also, make sure to optimize your agni (digestive fire) through lighter meals that are easier to digest and frequent meals that help keep energy levels steady. Lastly, patience is essential with Ayurvedic treatment—it’s holistic and aids naturally, needing a bit more time than quick fixes.
