What Are Asav and Arishtha?
Asav and Arishtha are classical Ayurvedic formulations prepared through a unique fermentation process. They are made by soaking herbal powders, roots, and other natural ingredients in a liquid base, often water or herbal decoction, along with jaggery, honey, or sugar. The fermentation process not only enhances the bioavailability of the herbs but also produces natural alcohol, which acts as a preservative and aids in the delivery of the medicinal properties.
