Shankhpushpi Tablets hold the whole plant of Convolvulus pluricaulis, named for its small conch-shaped flower: Shankha for conch, Pushpi for the one that flowers. Each 500mg tablet is the pure herb. Its energetics are Tikta and Kashaya rasa (bitter and astringent), Sheeta virya (cooling) and Madhura vipaka, with a light, unctuous Guna. Shankhpushpi settles all three doshas and is especially quieting for Vata and Pitta.
Ayurvedic Significance
Shankhpushpi sits at the head of the Medhya Rasayana group, the herbs Ayurveda reserves for Medha, the faculty of intellect and retention. It works on Majja Dhatu and on Manovaha Srotas, the channels of the mind, steadying Prana Vata when thought grows scattered and cooling Sadhaka Pitta when feeling runs hot. Practitioners describe it as building Ojas gently rather than stimulating, which is why it supports both alert daytime clarity and settled rest. Its cooling, unctuous quality also nourishes the nervous tissue over time.
Key Benefits
- Medhya clarity: A foremost Medhya Rasayana, traditionally used to support memory, retention and clear thinking.
- Calm and emotional balance: Its cooling nature settles Sadhaka Pitta and supports an even mood through a demanding day.
- Steadies Prana Vata: Traditionally used where the mind feels scattered or restless, helping thought settle into one place.
- Restful nights: Ayurveda values Shankhpushpi for helping the mind wind down naturally at the end of the day.
- Tridoshic and gentle: Pacifying to all three doshas, suitable for steady daily use as part of a Rasayana routine.
Ingredients
Each 500 mg tablet contains — Shankhpushpi (Convolvulus pluricaulis), prepared using a combination of whole herb powder and standardized extract for a balanced formulation. The tablets are 100% natural and plant-based, produced without using any fillers, binders, or artificial additives.
All Prana Ayurveda herbs are sourced from select wild regions of India, where they naturally develop higher concentrations of active constituents.
Suggested Use
The traditional serving is two tablets twice daily. Warm milk is the classical Anupana for Medhya herbs and carries this one deepest; warm water suits a lighter approach. Morning supports daytime clarity and evening supports settled rest. Brahmi or Jatamansi make natural companion formulations. For dosage and duration suited to your constitution (Prakriti), consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner.

Additional Information
Shankhpushpi is also written Shankhapushpi, Sankhapushpi, Shankhpushpee and Shankhavalli. The botanical name appears in older sources as Convolvulus pleuricaulis or Convolvulus microphyllus, and some regional traditions use Evolvulus alsinoides under the same common name. The herb supplied here is Convolvulus pluricaulis, the whole plant, which is the source most widely accepted in classical Ayurvedic practice.
