Hingvashtak literally means ‘Hing with eight ingredients’. It is an Ayurvedic digestive formula that comprises pink Himalayan salt, spices, and herbs. Ancient Ayurvedic practitioners carefully selected herbs and spices that support the balance of Vata in the body, specifically from the gut. This subsequently helped the body to maintain healthy digestion and gut health.

In Ayurveda, we associate the benefits of Hingvashtak powder to its warm potency that nourishes the metabolic fire. The presence of cumin and ajwain seeds supports the downward movement of Vata. It also maintains the balance between Kapha and Vata doshas.

This herbal blend also supports healthy gastrointestinal tract and digestive functions. The main herb Hing teams up with Nigella seeds to maintain the balance of gut bacteria and ease occasional gas from food.

On the other hand, the presence of Trikatu (three pungent herbs) encourages the stimulation of gut secretions. The Himalayan salt helps to maintain normal gut moisture.

Together, the synergetic action of these eight Ayurvedic ingredients effectively supports the healthy elimination of ama and stagnation. This Ayurvedic digestive formula also promotes assimilation, absorption, and normal peristaltic movement.

The benefits of Hingvashtak are associated with its unique phytonutrient composition. Like many Ayurvedic spices, it contains terpenes, phenolic acid compounds, flavonoids, and propanoid. It also includes glycosides, tannins, volatile essential oil (thymol), mucilage, and other phytochemicals.

These bioactive compounds support the balance of gut flora and promote a healthy and natural inflammatory response in the gastrointestinal tract.

Athreya Hingvashtak powder is a Ayurvedic digestive formula.The primary ingredient in the Hingvashtak powder is the resin of hing. Which is activated by roasting it in pure ghee, which significantly increases its aroma. This supports the downward movement of Vata in the GI tract.

We also stone grind Black Cumin and Cumin seeds. This helps to preserve their essential oil and support the maintenance of healthy gut flora.
