Jeevanthyadi Gritham is a classical Ayurvedic medicated ghee (gritham) from Arya Vaidya Pharmacy, built around Jeevanthi with Yashtimadhu, Punarnava and Triphala in a pure cow's ghee base. It is traditionally valued as a cooling, nourishing rejuvenative for the eyes, skin and nervous system.
The name comes from its lead herb, Jeevanthi (Leptadenia reticulata), a classical nourishing tonic, with the suffix adi meaning "and others." Gritham means medicated ghee.
Ayurvedic Significance
Ghee is classically regarded as an ideal carrier for herbs that nourish the eyes, skin and nerves, and as cooling and Pitta-soothing. In Ayurveda the eyes are considered a seat of Pitta, and a Netra Rasayana (eye rejuvenative) is traditionally used to support their comfort and clarity. The nourishing, Brimhana quality of this ghee is also traditionally used to support the skin and calm the nerves, balancing Pitta and Vata.
Traditional Uses and Benefits

Eye health, the body's natural handling of eye strain and healthy vision
Healthy skin and the body's handling of skin concerns
The nervous system and gentle nourishment and rejuvenation
+What is Jeevanthyadi Gritham, and what is in it?
Jeevanthyadi Gritham is a classical medicated ghee (gritham/ghrita) built on nourishing, eye-and-skin-supporting herbs in a cow's-ghee base, traditionally including:
Jeevanthi (Leptadenia), the nourishing jeevaniya (life-supporting) herb that gives it its name
Supporting eye-and-skin herbs and Triphala-type ingredients
In a nourishing cow's ghee base
Together these nourishing, eye-and-skin-supporting herbs in ghee are traditionally valued for the eyes, skin and nervous system. Ghee itself is classically valued as good for the eyes and as a nourishing carrier.
+Is Jeevanthyadi Gritham good for the eyes and skin?
Supporting the eyes, skin and nervous system is exactly what Jeevanthyadi Gritham is most valued for. Taken as advised, this nourishing ghee formula is traditionally used to support eye health and the body's handling of eye strain, support healthy skin and the body's handling of skin concerns and support the nervous system and gentle rejuvenation. Jeevanthi and ghee are classically valued for the eyes. It offers supportive care; an eye condition, vision changes, a persistent skin condition or any health problem should be assessed by a doctor or eye specialist, with the ghee used alongside proper care under guidance, not as a treatment for any condition.
+How do you take Jeevanthyadi Gritham, and what is the dosage?
Jeevanthyadi Gritham is usually taken as about half to one teaspoon once or twice daily, with warm water or warm milk, before food, or as directed by a physician. A simple way to take it:
Take the small advised amount (about half to one teaspoon) of the ghee.
Take it with warm water or warm milk, usually before food, on an empty stomach if advised.
Take it consistently for the duration a practitioner advises.
As a medicated ghee it is best taken on a relatively empty stomach for absorption. Confirm the right amount and duration with a practitioner, especially if you have an eye or skin condition or take other medication.
+How does Jeevanthyadi Gritham work?
Jeevanthyadi Gritham works through nourishing, eye-and-skin-supporting herbs carried in a ghee base. In Ayurveda, the eyes are governed by Pitta and benefit from cooling nourishment, and eye strain, skin concerns and nervous depletion are linked to aggravated Pitta and Vata and depleted tissues, so Jeevanthi and the herbs nourish and cool the eyes, support healthy skin, support the nervous system and rejuvenate, while ghee (classically valued for the eyes) carries the herbs and nourishes deeply. As the eyes, skin and nerves are nourished, their wellness is traditionally supported. This nourishing, cooling, rejuvenating action is why Jeevanthyadi Gritham is valued, used as supportive care under guidance.
+Which dosha does Jeevanthyadi Gritham balance?
Jeevanthyadi Gritham mainly settles aggravated Pitta (heat affecting the eyes and skin, since the eyes are a Pitta-governed sense organ) and Vata (dryness and nervous-system depletion), with its cooling, nourishing herbs in a ghee base. Eye strain, skin concerns and nervous depletion are classically linked to aggravated Pitta and Vata and depleted tissues, which the nourishing, cooling formula settles. Being rich in ghee, it can increase Kapha if overused. By cooling Pitta, settling Vata and nourishing the eyes, skin and nerves, it supports their wellness. This makes it well suited to heated, dry, depleted, Pitta-Vata tendencies, used as supportive care under guidance.
+How is the 150gm ghee taken compared with the capsule grithams?
Jeevanthyadi Gritham (150gm) is the traditional medicated ghee in a jar, taken by the spoon (usually with warm water or milk before food), which some prefer for the authentic experience and because ghee is itself nourishing for the eyes. By contrast, AVP's other Grithams (like Brahmi or Sukumara) are offered as capsules for convenience and no taste. The ghee jar lets you take a measured spoonful and is classic for eye-nourishing use; the choice is preference. Both are supportive care, used under guidance, not treatments. A practitioner can advise the right form and amount. You can buy AVP grithams in both forms from AyurvedaBay.com, with worldwide shipping.
+Is Jeevanthyadi Gritham safe, and are there precautions?
Jeevanthyadi Gritham is generally well tolerated as a classical nourishing ghee when taken as directed, but a few precautions apply:
It is supportive care; an eye condition, vision changes, a persistent skin condition or any health problem should be assessed by a doctor or eye specialist, not self-treated.
It is ghee (dairy); avoid it if you have a dairy allergy, and those watching fat or cholesterol should use it modestly.
If you take medication, are pregnant or nursing, or have a health condition, consult a practitioner first.
Take only the small advised amount, and store it properly.
It is supportive care and is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any disease.
