Kapha-Related Headaches
For Kapha-related headaches, characterized by heaviness, dull pain, sinus congestion, and a feeling of coldness in the head, a combination of Godanti Bhasma and Samir Pannag Rasa offers quick and effective relief. Mix 1 Ratti (125 mg) of Godanti Bhasma with half Ratti (60 mg) of Samir Pannag Rasa and administer it with warm water or honey, 2-3 times a day as needed. Godanti Bhasma pacifies Kapha and Pitta doshas, reducing inflammation, clearing blockages, and relieving heaviness in the head. Samir Pannag Rasa acts as a strong Kapha-balancing agent, helping to clear nasal congestion, improve circulation, and reduce mucus buildup. This combination is particularly effective for Kapha-type headaches, sinus-related discomfort, and cold-induced headaches. To enhance its effects, follow a Kapha-pacifying diet that avoids cold, heavy, or oily foods and incorporate practices like steam inhalation to clear sinus pathways. This remedy provides rapid relief from symptoms, improves breathing, and restores mental clarity, but it should be used under the supervision of an Ayurvedic practitioner to ensure proper dosage and safety.
Chronic Fever
Godanti Bhasma is useful in treating chronic fever, intermittent fever, excessive bile, and leucorrhoea. Many doctors today use Godanti Bhasma as a substitute for Amritasatva because its properties are similar to Amritasatva. It can be safely used for pregnant women and children.If chronic fever is accompanied by bile imbalance and dry cough, you can mix Praval Pishti with it. As a medium, use syrup or sharbat and give it 2-3 times a day.
Note:
For preparing bhasma, you must use bright, pure, and well-processed Godanti. Using impure or raw Godanti with a dull color can be harmful. Well-prepared Godanti Bhasma benefits children, pregnant women, and new mothers. It is also helpful for everyone, including the elderly.
Children who have become weak due to lactation-related issues can regain strength and energy after consuming this bhasma for a few days. Even though Godanti is mild and gentle, it provides benefits similar to Harital (Orpiment). This is why Godanti is also called Godanti Harital.However, consuming Godanti in large doses repeatedly can harm the liver. So, it is important to use it in small doses.
