In the beautiful tropical state of Kerala in India, Shatavari grows abundantly, and the legendary Ayurvedic physicians here have been using its roots and leaves for medicinal purposes for thousands of years- and with good reason.According to Ayurveda, there are three vital energies or doshas in the body, known as Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.The medicated oil is useful in massages, and the famous preparation Narayana oil is made from Shatavari.It strengthens the muscles, reduces pain in lumbago, sciatica, inflamed joints and is also effective in paralysis or paresis.Known as an adaptogenic herb, Shatavari minimizes the negative effects of stress on the nervous system.This herb is good for anyone under pressure, helping the body and mind to cope with challenges.

Gastroparesis can cause heartburn, abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea.These three doshas are delicately balanced in a unique proportion in every individual.Good health can be enjoyed only when this balance is maintained.Shatavari contains phyto-estrogens, the precursors of estrogen, that are really very useful for women who suffer from low natural estrogen levels as a result of menopause, hysterectomies or oophorectomies.For menstruating women Shatavari helps to regulate monthly cycles and ovulation.
