Shunti samangadi kashayam is an Ayurvedic medicine for treating diarrhoea and other intestinal problems.
Benefits of Shunti samangadi kashayam
Shunti samangadi kashayam is a formulation practised by traditional Kerala Vaidyas for a long time. It was used in many types of digestive disorders in which the main symptom was loose stools. Intestinal infection was very common in those times due to poor hygiene and lack of awareness. In those times many contaminative diseases like cholera and amoebic dysentery were managed using Shunti samangadi kashayam successfully.
Nowadays people are aware of such issues and water-borne diseases are rare. But this combination is useful in diseases like IBS, any type of Diarrhoea, etc. Many ingredients of this medicine have the power to regulate intestinal movements and absorption. By regulating peristalsis and digestion, diarrhoea is cured.
People are affected more with indigestion due to poor lifestyles and unhealthy food habits nowadays. Food poisoning is very common, where the main symptom is uncontrolled diarrhoea. In severe diarrhoea, the watery stools can be mixed with mucus, pus or even blood. Abdominal pain and colic will be associated with it. Shunti samangadi kashayam manages this condition well by relieving the indigestion and stabilising the digestive fire.

Details of the manufacturing
Sunthisamnagadi kashayam is prepared using 9 ingredients in equal quantity.
All these ingredients should be washed well and dried up in shade.
Take the prescribed herbs in dried & crushed form in an earthen pot. For your special attention, Sunthi should be crushed and tied up separately in a white clean cotton cloth as a Potali. This is to prevent the excess dissolution of the contents and to maintain the exact consistency of the kashayam. Now add 16 times clean water into it. Make it boil and then cook in the open vessel with low fire. Reduce the quantity into one by the eighth of the initial quantity. Make sure to mix it in between with a ladle without breaking the potli. Also, the fire should be kept low to make sure that all the active ingredients in the herbs needed are absorbed well into the water. Once the quantity is reduced to one by eighth of the initial amount of water, remove the vessel from the fire. Squeeze and drain through a clean white cloth. Collect the decoction in a clean vessel and discard the solid waste. Drink the mild warm decoction.
