Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is Raasnaadi Choornam traditionally used for?
Raasnaadi Choornam is a classical Ayurvedic herbal powder formulated as per Sahasrayogam. It is traditionally indicated for catarrh (Pratishyaya), fever (Jwara), heaviness of the head (Shirogaurava), and headache (Shirashoola). It is applied externally on the forehead after mixing with breast milk or castor oil.
Q2. Why is it applied with breast milk or castor oil?
In classical Ayurvedic practice, herbal powders for external application are often mixed with a suitable vehicle (Anupana) to enhance absorption and efficacy. Breast milk (Stanya) is considered nourishing and cooling in Ayurveda, making it particularly suitable for paediatric applications. Castor Oil (Eranda Taila) is a classical Vata-pacifying vehicle used for adult applications. Always use as directed by a qualified Ayurvedic physician.
Q3. Does this formulation contain mineral ingredients?
Yes. Raasnaadi Choornam contains three classical mineral/inorganic ingredients as per the Sahasrayogam formulation: Magnetite (Ayaskanta / Lodestone), Red Ochre (Gairika / Iron Oxide), and Cuttle Fish Bone (Samudraphena). These are classical Ayurvedic ingredients used in external formulations. This product is for external use only and should not be ingested.
Q4. Is Raasnaadi Choornam suitable for children?
The classical reference to breast milk as a vehicle suggests this formulation has traditional paediatric applications. However, it must always be used under the supervision of a qualified Ayurvedic physician, especially for infants and young children. Perform a patch test before first use and keep away from eyes.
Q5. Is bulk or wholesale supply available?
