Yes for hair problems you can use Bhringrajasav tonic Rasayan has 3 ingredients in it Instead take Amalaki rasayan 1-0-1 after food with water Light massage on scalp twice weekly with Brahmi amla hair oil. Anu tailam is also good, you can take nasya with Anu tel.
Hello vishnupriya ji,
Without any doubt,you can use these.
1.Instead of using this one,you can go with Amalki rasayana. 3. Daily Put 2 drops of Anu tailam into your nostrils and after that you will feel that oil into your throat so spit that after gargling with lukewarm water +saindhav lavana.
* Massage your scalp with Nilibhringrajadi oil thrice in a week. *with castor oil 4 times in a week.
Take care😊
If you have any doubt, feel free to ask.
Kind Regards, Dr.Isha Ashok Bhardwaj.
Based on your request for information on Ayurvedic supplements for hair health, here’s a detailed breakdown of the products you mentioned, along with general guidance on their use. Analysis of the Products You Listed
1. Rasayana Churna with Honey
What it is: The term “Rasayana” in Ayurveda refers to rejuvenation and anti-aging. A “Rasayana Churna” is a powdered herbal mix designed to promote overall health, vitality, and longevity. The specific herbs in the churna can vary, but common ingredients might include Amla (Indian gooseberry), Haritaki, and Bibhitaki.
What it’s said to do for hair: Rasayana formulations, particularly those with Amla, are highly valued in Ayurveda for their benefits to hair. They are believed to strengthen hair roots, prevent premature graying, and promote hair growth by nourishing the body from within.
Potential side effects & things to consider: Dosage: The correct dosage depends on the specific formulation and your body type. An incorrect dose can cause digestive issues.
Prakriti (Body Type): If you have a dominant Pitta (fire) constitution, some Rasayana formulations might be too heating.
Quality: The purity and quality of the herbs are critical. Always purchase from a reputable source.
Usage with Honey: Honey is often used as a carrier (Anupana) for many Ayurvedic powders to enhance their efficacy. However, the combination might not be suitable for everyone, especially those with certain metabolic conditions.
2. Bringarajasava Tonic
What it is: Bringarajasava is a fermented liquid Ayurvedic preparation (Arishta/Asava). Its main ingredient is Bhringaraj (Eclipta alba), a herb renowned in Ayurveda for its hair-enhancing properties.
What it’s said to do for hair: This tonic is specifically formulated to address hair loss, premature graying, and scalp issues. It is believed to improve hair quality and density by improving blood circulation to the scalp and nourishing the hair follicles. Potential side effects & things to consider:
Alcohol Content: As an Arishta, Bringarajasava contains a small amount of naturally generated alcohol from the fermentation process. If you have liver issues or are sensitive to alcohol, this might be a concern.
Digestive Sensitivity: Some individuals may experience mild stomach upset or a change in bowel movements when they first start taking this tonic.
Dosage & Timing: The dosage is typically small (15-30 ml) and taken after meals. Taking too much or at the wrong time could disrupt digestion.
3. Anu Tailam What it is: Anu Tailam is an Ayurvedic herbal oil used for a practice called Nasya, which involves administering medicated oil through the nasal passages. It is a complex blend of many herbs in a base of sesame oil.
What it’s said to do for hair: The nasal passages are considered a gateway to the head region (Shiro) in Ayurveda. Anu Tailam is believed to nourish the entire head, including the brain, senses, and hair. By clearing the sinuses and nourishing the head, it is said to improve blood flow to the scalp and promote hair health.
Potential side effects & things to consider: Incorrect Application: Improper use of Anu Tailam can be harmful. It must be administered in a specific way, typically while lying down, and with the head tilted back.
Dosage: The number of drops is crucial. Using too much can cause a choking sensation or a feeling of oil in the throat. Pre-existing Conditions: It is not recommended for individuals with specific conditions like sinus infections, fever, or during an active cold
Not a Simple Hair Oil: It is important to note that Anu Tailam is for Nasya, not for massaging onto the scalp like a regular hair oil.
Can You Use These Every Day? Are There Side Effects? Daily Use: yes,While many Ayurvedic formulations are designed for daily use, the specific duration and dosage vary greatly from person to person.
Side Effects: Yes, like any medicine, Ayurvedic products can have side effects, especially if used incorrectly or for the wrong condition. The side effects can range from mild (e.g., digestive upset, rashes) to more severe. The potential for side effects is higher when you self-medicate without understanding your unique body constitution.
In summary, while the products you’ve listed are traditionally known to benefit hair, it is essential to approach them with the same caution you would any other medication.
Thank you for reaching out this platform, there is no doubt ayurvedic medicine gives wonderful results if taken in right quantity at right time The above medicine which you have mentioned can be taken for your hair issues but avoid if you have weak digestion/acidity and overuse may lead to bloating or acidity
