Rejuvenation for Vata and Pitta that Promotes Vitality and Strength*

Shatavari is a rejuvenating herb that cools the body and strengthens and nourishes the tissues.* Traditionally used to maintain the healthy production of female hormones, Shatavari may be translated as "100 spouses," implying its role in promoting fertility and vitality.* As a nutritive tonic it encourages the healthy production of milk in lactating mothers and the healthy production of semen in would be fathers.* It is also useful for supporting the menopausal transition. Shatavari supports a healthy immune system and assists in both physical and mental digestion.

Its unctuous quality soothes and nurtures membranes of the lungs, stomach, kidneys, and reproductive organs, and gives it a building nature that makes it a great support for anyone looking for a nourishing grounding effect.* It's bitter and sweet taste also has a cooling effect on the system. These combined qualities make it a rasayana (rejuvenative) for the reproductive system, the digestive system (particularly when pitta is involved), and the blood.* Sattvic (pure, harmonious) in nature, Shatavari calms the mind and promotes love and devotion.*
