Benefits & Medicinal Uses of Khadiradi Gutika
Laryngitis (Hoarseness Or Loss Of Voice)
In addition to Khadiradi Gutika, Ashwagandha extract should be taken with milk if hoarseness is brought on by overuse. Khadiradi Gutika’s anti-inflammatory and soothing effects reduce inflammation of the larynx (voice box), gives the user a clear voice, and lessens hoarseness by reducing irritation and swelling of the vocal cord.
For speedy relief, Khadiradi Gutika should also be combined with Sitopaladi Churna, Yashad (Jasad) Bhasma, and Gandhak Rasayan with honey.
Mouth Ulcers & Stomatitis
For the best results, licorice (Mulethi or Yashtimadhu or Glycyrrhiza Glabra) should also be used in such a condition. Khadiradi Gutika reduces pain and burning sensation associated with mouth ulcers and reduces inflammation of mucous membranes, which gives relief in stomatitis.
Sore Throat (Pharyngitis)
In addition to its emollient (soothing) action, Khadiradi Gutika also inhibits the growth of bacteria, which may be the cause of sore throat, and can be taken in combination with Sitopaladi Churna, Yashad (Jasad) Bhasma, and Gandhak Rasayan to provide quick relief from sore throat.
Tonsillitis & Tonsils Infections
Although Sitopaladi Churna, Yashad (Jasad) Bhasma, and Gandhak Rasayan are often used in conjunction with Khadiradi Gutika to treat tonsil infections because it may not be effective alone, these other herbs also help to soothe, comfort, and reduce tonsil inflammation.
