Is it by mistake, you have used agnimukha churna in some places, or are they both same?
Hi, thanks for pointing out. Now corrected.
hello sir,
you mentioned side effect of this churna, is there any reference of this or you described by
your own experiences.
I explained it based on user reviews and my experiences.
Hi.sir.I rohit.my age is 17 and my height is 4.12 inches.Help me to grow taller.
Hi, you can use this product, in a dose of 3 grams with milk at night after food for 2 months time.
hi, ashwagandha is having rasayana property. it is helpful to increase fertility and also body mass. But it is ashwagandhadi churna what we have introduced here which contain other ingredients also which acts on tridoshas. So before anything it is better to consult your nearest Ayurvedic doctor and take suggestion.
Thanks, Dr Malini
In some youtube videos they say that Ashwagadha powder increase height if it is mixed with milk, they say it has a direct effect on the pituitary gland to secrete the growth hormone, is it true ??
Would this product be useful if taken for muscle-building/recovery while following a weight training program. Also if all 3 dosha are already balanced, should we consume this with ghee & honey both?
Sir im 21.did ashwagandha is helpful to gaining height?if so plz suggest me its dose nd
