How to Use Vasaka Powder

Adding Vasaka to your daily routine is a doddle. The classic method is to brew it as a tea:

1. Bring one cup of water to the boil.
2. Add ½ to 1 teaspoon of Vasaka powder.
3. Let it steep for 5–10 minutes, then strain.
4. Sip it warm, with a touch of honey or lemon if you like.

You can also stir the powder into a bit of warm water or ghee and take it straight. Begin with a low dose and tweak as needed. For personalised advise, chat with an Ayurvedic practitioner.

How Does Vasaka Support Respiratory Health?

Vasaka is well known in Ayurvedic practise for helping maintain healthy respiratory function. The herb works by soothing irritated tissues and supporting the body's natural cleansing processes in the lungs and airways.*

• Calms the Respiratory Tract: Its cooling nature helps pacify inflammation and discomfort in the throat and chest.*
