    Remedy Rooted in Ayurveda’s Sweet Essence of Calm & Healing

    Mulethi (Glycyrrhiza glabra)—meaning “sweet wood” in Sanskrit—is a revered herb whose long, honeyed roots offer deep healing across body and mind. With a madhura rasa (sweet taste), cooling potency (sheeta virya), and heavy, unctuous quality (guru, snigdha), it pacifies both Pitta and Vata doshas beautifully. Its dietetic virtue, yogavahi, allows it to carry other herbal treasures deeply into the tissues of the throat, lungs, and gut.

    From ancient Ayurvedic texts to modern wellness rituals, Mulethi has soothed digestive fire, calmed colon's heat, healed peptic and oral ulcers, and pacified respiratory irritation like coughs and bronchial inflammation. It comforts the throat, reduces gastric acid, supports immunity, and encourages mental clarity—making it a nourishing tonic for stress, fatigue, and heart health.
