How to Use

Mix 1/4 teaspoon of the herbal powder into a small glass of warm water, or stir it directly into your first bite of warm food (like rice or kitchari) mixed with a little melted ghee. 


Take this blend 15 to 30 minutes before your largest meals, or immediately after eating (1/2 to 1 teaspoon) if you experience sudden digestive stagnation. 


This traditional formula works quickly to kindle your internal cooking fire, helping to prevent uncomfortable gas and abdominal bloating after eating.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most comfortable way to take Hingvashtak Powder?

A traditional and delicious way to take it is stirring about a quarter-teaspoon directly into your first bite of warm rice or kitchari along with a little melted ghee. If that doesn't fit your meal, simply mixing it into a small glass of warm water about 15 minutes before you eat works wonderfully too.

Can I take Hingvashtak Powder before every meal?

It is highly adaptive to your digestion. Many find it most supportive right before their heaviest meal of the day to ease gas and bloating, but you can certainly use it before breakfast and dinner if your internal cooking fire needs extra consistent warming.
