Black Mica – Abhrak – Shatputi – Sahasraputi – Biotite Mica – Kala Bajra – Black Millet – अभ्रक

• Best For: Supporting respiratory health (cough, cold, asthma, bronchitis), managing diabetes, treating liver and abdominal diseases, improving mental and psychomotor disorders, strengthening the body's seven dhatus (tissues), and providing overall rejuvenation (Rasayana). Acts as a Pranavaha Srotas Balya to strengthen lungs and heart. Helps pacify all three doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha).
• Purity: 100% Pure Black Mica (Biotite) mineral; naturally sourced and processed. For Abhrak Bhasma, it is prepared through traditional calcination (puta) process – Shatputi (100 times incinerated) and Sahasraputi (1000 times incinerated) for enhanced potency. Contains no chemicals, preservatives, colors, or artificial additives.
• Key Fact: Known in Ayurveda as "Abhrak" (अभ्रक), this mineral is essentially made up of magnesium, aluminium, silicon, oxygen, hydrogen, iron, potassium, and calcium. It has the unique ability to calm all three doshas in the body while providing adequate energy. The purification and calcination process transforms raw mica into a bioavailable therapeutic form. Vajrabhraka (special quality Abhrak) is considered more potent for preparing bhasma. Sahasraputi Abhrak (1000 times incinerated) is specifically used for Apunarbhava (preventing disease recurrence) and Rasayana (rejuvenation) purposes.
• Usage: For Abhrak Bhasma, take 30 mg to 250 mg (typically 125 mg) twice a day with honey, ginger juice, ghee, or milk, or as directed by an Ayurvedic physician. For raw Abhrak (Kala Bajra), it is traditionally used after proper purification and processing only – never consume raw. Can also be used for water purification and remineralization due to its mineral content. Always use under professional guidance.

Abhrak is a mineral made up of small quantities of silicon, magnesium, calcium, potassium, and aluminum.

अभ्रकं गगनं भृङ्गमभ्रं खं व्योमनामकम।वज्रं घनश्च बहुपत्रंनन्तकम्।।आकाम्म्ब्रं शुभ्रं त्वमलं गरजध्वजं।मेघख्य मन्तरिक्षश्च तदेव परिकीर्तितं।। (रस तंत्र १० / १-२)

It is primarily employed to address male sexual issues such as low sperm count and diminished sexual desire, thanks to its property of boosting sperm production and its aphrodisiac characteristics.
