How Does This Ayurvedic Herb Supplement Improve Wellness?

CLINICAL AYURVEDIC REVIEW

Supports the immune and respiratory systems and promotes well-being*



  • Removes excess Vata, Pitta, and Kapha from the head and chest*
  • Supports proper function of the lungs and healthy respiration*
  • Enkindles digestion and burns natural toxins*
  • Helps maintain a normal body temperature*


Commentary:


Talisadi is a traditional Ayurvedic formula that contains the ingredients of Sitopaladi with the addition of talisa, black pepper and ginger. Like its counterpart it supports the immune system and overall health and well-being. Talisadi offers additional heat for enkindling the digestive fire, burning ama (natural toxins) and helping to maintain a normal body temperature. Talisa is an excellent herb for the lungs making the formula especially good for supporting healthy respiration. It also helps promote abdominal comfort, absorption, and healthy stool formation.*

Ingredients:


Cane Sugar **, Banslochan (Bambusa arundinacea)**, Pippali (Piper longum)**, Ginger (Zingiber officinale)**, Black Pepper (Piper nigrum)**, Talispatra (Abies webbiana), Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum)**, Cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia)**, Corn Starch.

**Certified organically grown

Metabolic Nature of Talisadi

See a complete list of all biocharacteristics.

METABOLIC NATURE

Metabolic Nature

Ayurveda assesses metabolic imbalances through 20 main biocharacteristics (gunas). Aggravating them weakens your body and causes imbalance. By knowing which biocharacteristics are habitually imbalanced in your body, you will be able to identify and correct metabolic imbalances before you get sick. Every biocharacteristic has an opposite which balances it (i.e. hot balances cold). You restore balance by favoring diet and lifestyle choices that increase the opposite biocharacteristic.

TASTES

The 6 Tastes

Taste is used to sense the most basic properties and effects of food. Each taste has a specific medicinal effect on your body. Cravings for food with certain tastes indicate your body is craving specific medicinal results from food. Taste is experienced on the tongue and represents your body's reaction to foods. Sweet taste causes physical satisfaction and attraction whereas bitter taste causes discomfort and aversion. Kapha should use less sweet taste while Vata and Pitta would benefit from using more sweet taste. One of the first signs of illness is that your taste and appetite for food changes. The six tastes are sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent. Do you crave foods with any of the tastes below?

DOSHAS

The Three Doshas / Body Types

Ayurveda is a metabolic theory of medicine that explains individual health, tendencies, and disease patterns through the concept of doshas, which can be understood as your metabolic patterns and tendencies.

Each dosha reflects a distinct metabolic nature and describes strengths & weaknesses in bodily function, and how these affect energy levels, digestion, susceptibility to disease, and many other tendencies.

Your metabolic nature not only affects your physical characteristics, but also influences your mental thought patterns, confidence, and enthusiasm.

Ayurveda balances these metabolic strengths & weaknesses to support your body's vitality and prevent recurrent disease cycles. This support is a critical aid, especially in chronic or incurable disease conditions.

The 3 metabolic body types (doshas), are Catabolic (Vata), Metabolic (Pitta), and Anabolic (Kapha).

Through dosha, Ayurveda empowers people to identify metabolic imbalances early, break repetitive patterns of disease, and cultivate habits that support long-term vitality and well-being.

Ultimately, these metabolic patterns also provide a framework for understanding yourself, including body, mind, and spiritual tendencies.
