‘Agni’ or the digestive fire is central to the Ayurvedic concept of health. A debilitated agni gives rise to ‘Ajirna’, a condition characterized by incomplete digestion and metabolism. The individual suffers from loss of appetite, nausea, abdominal discomfort.

Asavas are mildly alcoholic preparations. The sweet taste makes it palatable to kids and adults alike. The alcohol base makes it quick-acting and efficient.
