In Ayurveda, both vata and kapha dosha cause colds and flu when they are out of balance and immunity is weak. Excess kapha dosha has the qualities of cool, heavy, and moist which causes runny nose, sneezing and a cough with a lot of phlegm. Excess vata dosha has the qualities of dryness, lightness and moving fast which causes coldness with chills and a dry cough.
Chyavanaprasam balances all three doshas, especially kapha dosha, the main herb amalaki rejuvenates all 7 dhatus (body tissues), supports cardiac and respiratory health, promotes healthy weight, skin, and hair. Other names: Chyavanprash Ingredients
