Manjistha, also known as Indian Madder, is regarded as one of the most effective blood-purifying herbs.
It is primarily used to break down blood flow obstructions and clear stagnant blood.

Manjistha herb can be used to promote skin whitening both internally and topically.
Because of its antioxidant properties, using Manjistha powder with honey or rose water (at least 2-3 times a week) helps manage acne and pimples by blocking the growth of acne-causing bacteria.
Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, topical application of Manjistha oil and coconut oil lowers inflammation and skin rashes linked with acne.
It also aids in the maintenance of healthy, lustrous hair.
Because of its astringent properties, rinsing your eyes with Manjistha decoction may help manage excessive watery discharge.

Due to the Guru and Kashaya characteristics of Manjistha, excessive ingestion may result in constipation.
If you already have a digestive problem, it is best to take Manjistha with hot water.

1. Skin disorder

Manjistha is one of the most effective herbs for treating all forms of skin problems.
A Pitta dosha imbalance vitiates the blood and inhibits its regular functioning.
This causes skin issues such as redness.
Manjistha aids in blood purification and the treatment of all skin problems.
This is owing to the Pitta-balancing and Raktashodhak (blood purifier) qualities of the herb.

Tips:

a. Measure out 1/4-1/2 teaspoon Manjistha powder.

b. Swallow it with honey or water after lunch and dinner to relieve skin disease symptoms.

2. Constipation

Manjistha is an excellent remedy for diarrhoea.
In Ayurveda, diarrhoea is referred to as Atisar.
It is caused by poor diet, contaminated water, pollutants, mental tension, and Agnimandya (weak digestive fire).
All of these variables contribute to the aggravation of Vata.
This heightened Vata takes fluid into the gut from numerous body tissues and mixes it with the excrement.
This causes loose, watery bowel movements or diarrhoea.
Manjistha can help control diarrhoea.
This is owing to its Deepan (appetiser) Pachan (digestive) qualities, which increase digestive fire.
This thickens the stool and decreases the frequency of movements.
Because of its Kashaya (astringent) character, Manjistha also reduces bleeding.

a. Use 1/4-1/2 teaspoon Manjistha powder.
