In Ayurveda, Vasaka (Adhatoda vasica) holds much significance when ancient practitioners mention Prana (life force). They believe that pure energy and life force enter our body through the respiratory tract. Yet, when modern lifestyle and environmental elements create hindrances, it is the evergreen Vasa herb that supports the natural cleansing of our lungs.

With its assistance, our natural body defenses feel revitalized and begin to actively promote healthy elimination of toxins accumulating in the respiratory tract. That includes our lungs, throat, and nose.

Vasa has a similar impact on our immune system and heart health. Due to this, the presence of Vasa encourages healthy blood flow and circulation in our body. It subsequently, revives and revitalizes healthy functioning in all vital organs.
