Panchatikta Ghrita Guggulu (120 Tablets, 400mg) | Ayurvedic Formula for Healthy Skin & Pitta Balance

Panchatikta Ghrita Guggulu is named directly for what it is: pancha five, tikta bitter, ghrita cow's ghee and guggulu the purified resin. The five bitters — Nimba, Guduchi, Vasa, Patola and Kantakari — are cooked into ghee, which carries their qualities deep into the tissues, and the whole is bound with purified Guggulu. This 400mg tablet is the classical strength, traditionally taken for clear, healthy skin and comfortable, well-lubricated joints.

Ayurvedic Significance

Bitter is the taste Ayurveda turns to when Pitta runs hot in the Rakta Dhatu and the skin shows it. Tikta Rasa is cooling, drying and Pachana; it kindles Agni at the tissue level so Ama stops settling in the Rasa and Rakta channels. Ghrita is the Yogavahi that carries these bitters past the gut and into deeper Dhatus, while purified Guggulu scrapes and moves what has stagnated in the Medovaha and Asthivaha Srotas. The combination cools without depleting, a balance the classical texts prize.

Key Benefits

• Healthy, clear skin: The five bitters are Ayurveda's classical answer for skin that needs cooling and settling from within rather than only on the surface.
• Rakta and Pitta balance: Nimba, Manjishtha and Guduchi work on the blood tissue, supporting the clean, cool Rakta on which a healthy complexion depends.
• Comfortable joints: Purified Guggulu with Shunthi, Haridra and Devadaru is the classical pairing for easy movement and lasting comfort in the joints.
• Digestive fire and clear channels: Chitraka, Maricha, Pippalimula and Yavani kindle Agni so nourishment is properly processed and Ama does not accumulate.
• Deep tissue nourishment: The ghee base carries the herbs beyond the digestive tract into the deeper Dhatus, the reason this formula is prepared as a Ghrita rather than a plain decoction.

Formulated according to the traditional principles of Ayurveda.

All Prana Ayurveda herbs are sourced from select wild regions of India, where they naturally develop higher concentrations of active constituents.

Suggested Use

Take 2 tablets twice daily after meals, or as directed. Warm water is the everyday Anupana and suits this formula well; a little warm milk softens the bitterness for Vata constitutions. Taking it after food is traditional, since the bitters are strong on an empty stomach. Mahamanjishthadi Kwatha is a classical companion where skin support is the focus. For dosage and duration suited to your constitution (Prakriti), consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner.
