In the Tradition

Its Sanskrit name means the sweet stick, after its naturally sweet root.

Classical texts count it among the Varnya herbs for complexion and among herbs traditionally used for the voice.

A small piece of mulethi to chew has long been an old remedy kept in Indian homes.

Our Yashtimadhu root is carefully selected for quality.

It is prepared for our ubtans and formulations according to its classical protocol.
