5 cooling Ayurvedic herbs to protect from heatwave this summer

The cooling power of Ayurvedic herbs

As the sun blazes and the mercury rises, seeking solace in nature's bounty becomes imperative. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian science of healing, offers a treasure trove of herbs known for their innate cooling properties. Here's a glimpse into the arsenal of Ayurvedic herbs that can help you stay cool and refreshed during the scorching summer days:

Holy Basil (Tulsi): Revered for its sacred significance, Tulsi also packs a punch when it comes to cooling the body. Sip on Ayudant Tulsi tea infused with a hint of honey for a rejuvenating and refreshing experience.

Ginger (Adrak): While ginger is typically associated with warmth, its ability to induce sweating can aid in cooling down the body during hot weather. Enjoy a glass of chilled ginger-infused lemonade for a zesty and cooling treat.

Cucumber (Kheera): With its high water content and hydrating properties, cucumber is a summer staple. Include it in salads, smoothies, or simply snack on slices to stay cool and hydrated throughout the day.

Indian Gooseberry (Amla): Bursting with Vitamin C and antioxidants, Amla not only boosts immunity but also helps regulate body temperature. Consume Ayudant Amla juice or incorporate dried Amla powder into your diet for a refreshing and revitalising effect.

Incorporating these Ayurvedic herbs into your daily regimen can help you combat the sweltering summer heat naturally. You may do this with Ayurvedant, from the House of Baidyanath, brings products like:

So, embrace the cooling power of Ayurvedic herbs and breeze through the summer with vitality and vigour.
