Aragwadha is the Sanskrit name given to a tree that showers golden leaves down, this beautiful tree is known for its precious therapeutic benefits that are embarked by the use of its heartwood, leaves, flowers, and of course roots. Here, Aragwadha is made into a healing decoction of herbs and made into a kashayam, this is also known as Aragwadha kwatham.

As can be seen in the Shloka and contents down below, most of the ingredients used in this concoction help in balancing the condition of the digestive fire, the flow of correct and incorrect signals of neurons across the digestive system by controlling the aggravation of the vaata and then allowing the complete system to heal through its own healing actions.

This medicine has been picked from the asthanga hridayam and is used primarily to treat problems relating to the digestive system, uncontrolled and random problems of the skin, fever caused due to unexplained increase in the pitta dosha, unexplained excessive itching caused due to an increase of the kapha dosha and more. All in all is a medicine that is used when all three doshas go out of balance with its primary point of action being the digestive system.
