Reference for Anu tailam is widespread all over the classical and ancient texts of Ayurveda, and why should it not be? It is one of the most beneficial oils one can use to strengthen the organs in our head, goes straight through our shrigantaka marma and then ends up entering all the indriyas (or sense organs) at once giving them strength, this is one of the only few medicines still left in the modern times that has carried a significantly good effect on our health from the vedic kaal to the current times.

According to Ayurveda one should incorporate daily face massage, a little fomentation, and then nasya into their daily routine for the maintenance of optimal health, and this nasya in health people should be done by Anu tailam only. Even in modern studies, it is seen that nasal administration of medicine has a significant impact on the eyes, ears, oral cavity, facial skin, and the nose itself.

It is made of goat milk over cow’s milk first of all which means that it is lighter than cow milk and hence is easier to be absorbed by the nasal mucosa, then again it is made by heavily processing every single drug in the content box so that the drug ends up coming to it smallest form in order to be able to cross all the mucosal barriers easily. This is the concept of Anu tailam, Anu literally means small.
