Guggul

A purifying Ayurvedic herb traditionally used for its cleansing effects and to support a healthy inflammatory response and cholesterol health.

Additional Product Details

"Guggul is one of the most potent herbs in Ayurveda and has
been traditionally used for cleansing and rejuvenation."

Guggul in Ayurveda

Used in Ayurvedic tradition for thousands of years, guggul is prized for its deep cleansing actions. It’s made from the sap (gum resin) of the myrrh tree, which is native to the Indian subcontinent, and is considered the tree’s “lifeblood”—it heals, repairs, and protects it.

Guggul is a wonderful addition to a regimen to reboot the body, especially during an annual cleanse.


Practitioners Have Traditionally Used This Purifying and Rejuvenating Herb For:

Routine cleansing of the body and mind

Healthy inflammatory support

Supporting heart health and cholesterol

Supporting joint comfort as we age

Often part of a seasonal or annual cleanse

Short-Term Dosing, Long-Term Benefits for Advanced Levels of Cleansing

Guggul supports the purification of all three Ayurvedic doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) that are responsible for our physical, mental, and spiritual balance. But guggul isn’t an herb to take long term. You can take it during a cleanse, such as Dr. Chaudhary’s Prime Method cleanse, and after your body and mind have been prepared to begin the cleansing. Guggul is excellent at purifying and once it has created the desired health effect, its job is complete.

Tradition + Science = Transformational Healing

Prajna Ayurveda Guggul honors both traditional Ayurvedic practices and modern-day science, blending carefully screened, traditionally used organic guggul powder with a wild-crafted guggul extract. This provides a higher amount of the active components than the powder alone and supports the many benefits of guggul.

The daily amount of standardized guggul extract used in Prajna Guggul is equivalent to 2 grams of guggul resin powder, which eliminates the need to consume mountains of powder or swallow a bunch of pills, to reach the same level of actives we’ve captured for you in this blend. Just 2 easy-to-swallow vegan capsules provide the full doctor-recommended dosage.

FAQs

  1. What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is the traditional medical system of India and one of the oldest surviving healing systems in the world (at least 5,000 years old). “Ayu” means life and “veda” means knowledge, so Ayurveda is the knowledge of life. It’s based on the philosophy that good health depends on the balance between the mind, body, and spirit. Ayurveda deepens your connection to who you are and aligns you with the natural world. The practice of Ayurveda is a journey towards greater self-awareness and balance so you’re able to make healthier decisions about your life.
  2. What is a dosha and how do I know what mine is? The doshas – Vata, Pitta, and Kapha – are the foundation of Ayurveda. They’re the energies that govern our mind and body. Think of them as your own personal blueprint, a map to yourself. We’re all made up of a combination of these three energies and by knowing your dosha, you take the guesswork out of what diet and lifestyle changes to make to achieve desired health and life goals. To learn more about doshas, and which dosha type you are, you can read Dr. Chaudhary’s article "What is Your Dosha?"
  3. What are Adaptogens? Adaptogens are certain herbs or mushrooms thought to have health benefits that can help how our body and mind manages fatigue, stress, and feelings of anxiousness. They are used in Ayurveda to help balance and strengthen the body and mind.
  4. Where are the ingredients sourced? We take great care in sourcing all of our ingredients so that they meet our stringent quality, safety and purity standards. Our Prajna Ayurveda traditional use whole powders are sourced from responsible growers in India and are organically grown without any pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
  5. When will I begin to see results? The beauty of the Prajna Ayurveda herbs is that you will know when they begin working. With regular use, most people should notice an improvement and noticeable benefits over time. Dr. Chaudhary suggests that you give any new regimen, including dietary and lifestyle changes, at least 90 days to work effectively on your body and mind to achieve a healthy balance.
  6. Can I use more than one herbal product at once? Yes, you can. In general, herbs work very well together. The Prime Collection herbs in particular were personally selected by Dr. Chaudhary to be a part of her Prime Method program and specifically selected for their balancing effects on the body and mind to help achieve the desired health goals.
  7. Do your products use the whole Ayurvedic herb or standardized extracts, and what is the difference? It was important to us that we honor the traditional practice of Ayurveda and include the herb in whole powder form in all of our products, as this is the composition in which they exist in nature. Science has also made it possible to create concentrated extracts of the whole herb, so combining the traditionally used whole powders with the standardized extract, we can ensure quality and potency so that you get all of the intended health benefits of the herb, without taking a lot of pills.
  8. How should I store my product? All products are shelf-stable and should be stored in a cool and dry environment without any exposure to direct sunlight. You can store your products on your kitchen counter or wherever is convenient for your daily use.
  9. What is the best time of day to take the product? All products are designed for gentle daily use, and with the exception of Triphala which is best to take 30 minutes before bed, can be taken morning and/or evening with a meal.
  10. How do you ensure product safety? Healthy Directions adheres to stringent quality standards and a unique Triple-Testing Philosophy™ that meets all industry Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and FDA requirements to deliver safe, superior products every time.
