Sitopaladi Churna (Respiratory Tonic)

Sitopaladi churna is a traditional Ayurvedic formula that bolsters the immune system and benefits health and well-being.

It promotes healthy expectoration and supports the proper function of the lungs and sinuses. It also removes excess Vata, Pitta, and Kapha from the head and chest, helping to promote clear, healthy respiration.

“Sitopala” means rock candy, an ingredient that soothes Pitta and calms Vata. “Adi” means etcetera and refers to the heating herbs and spices that help to enkindle the digestive fire and burn Kapha.

Sitopaladi is excellent for relieving upper respiratory congestion and bronchial conditions, clearing and opening the airways, and benefiting asthma, wheezing, and hay fever. Its expectorant and lubricating action helps clear congestion (Kapha) and soothes the delicate membranes of the lungs and throat. Taken with a teaspoon of honey, it is helpful for sore throat and irritating dry coughs. When taken in spring as part of a seasonal regime, Sitopaladi helps detoxify by clearing any excess Kapha accumulated through the winter months.
