Benefits of Mahasudarshan Churna
Fever
Mahasudarsana clears inflammatory toxins from the body via the skin and urine. It directly clears heat from the system that has built up due to a displaced agni circulating in the plasma and blood. The low agni commonly causes AMA blocking the channels of circulation (srotas) and hence obstructing the circulation of vata causing some of the prodromal symptoms of fever. It neutralises viral infections by enhancing immunity and detoxifying the acidic burden. It is a specific for influenza, acute phases of myalgic encephalo-myelitis (ME) and the Epstein–Barr virus manifesting with sore throat, high temperature, thirst, constipation and burning sensations.
Lymph
Its detoxifying and diuretic action reduces lymphatic swelling and congestion. Long-term chronic low immunity can cause swollen lymph glands and mahasudars´ana treats both the cause and the manifestation of this problem.
Liver
This bitter-tasting formula stimulates the liver to release bile. The excess heat is cleared from the hepatic system and ranjaka pitta. It can help to treat hypochondriac pain, gallstones and liver toxicity. By treating the liver it clears heat from alochaka pitta in the eyes and can be used to treat conjunctivitis and styes. Pitta headaches that mani-fest with pain behind the eyes, at the side of the head, on the temples and in the forehead are also treated with maha sudarsana.
Skin
Its alterative effects clear inflammatory pitta toxins from the blood helping to treat acne, eczema and sensations of burning on the skin. It can also be used where there is an allergic component such as in urticaria with itching and red inflamed weals.
Dosage of Mahasudarshan Churna
3 to 6 gram to be taken twice or thrice a day with water after meals or as directed by physician.
