Guest guest Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I am in my 3rd month of my pregnancy and I just had a very bad infection of my sinuses and a very bad cold. Like Todd had mentioned I guess it is the hormones, it just took forever for me to feel better. What Chawanprash do you vaidyas suggest for a healthy immune system that is available right here in the US. Basically I am from India , but I do not think I have anybody that can get it for me right now. I also tend to suffer from fatigue, scaitica, pelvic pain during pregnancy. Is there anything that I could take right now to avoid getting it. Thanks DP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Hi DP, There must be a lot of imports into the US of Chaywanprash formulations from India. Avoid any with added bhasmas, especially if you are pregnant. I believe that one of the best CPs you can find in the US is the one which is imported and distributed by NIAM in NY. It is the rarely available authentic Charak Samhita recipe and it is made by a family pharmacy in Uttar Pradesh which have this as their speciality for generations. http://www.secure-shopping-cart.com/niam/cart/cart25.html http://niam.com/corp-web/chywaninfo.html The rejuvenation effects of this CP is really potent, one of the best I have used. I have tested CP's from many famous pharmacies over the years, big and small. Please consult with a qualified vaidya for the other issues.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Dear Mayappuslaya, Chyavanprash in pregnancy is very safe. It is a rejuvenating medicine which is not contraindicated to anybody. In first triminster of pregnancy there are hormonal changes & hypoglycemia. It gives symptoms like fatigue, back pain, lethary etc. For good immunity chyavanprash will help but to give strenth to uterus also take some uterine tonic like kantiprabha vati which is made especially made for the same purpose. You can take this throughout the antinatal period. We usually send this KIT to our US based patients by courier. Feel free to talk me anytime.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Chyavanprash in the US. I think if some enterprising businessman gets on this group and goes through the messages he will surely see a business opurtunity of making millions by selling assured good quality (????) chyavanprash in the US of A. Dear DP, You could go through the links section where I have listed some ayurvedic companies who sell over the internet. It would be better if you get in contact with some of the US members of the group who could guide you better. Having said that chyavanprash is not always recommended in pregnancy, especially if you are of pitta prakruti. The symptoms you have mentioned are related with pregnancy and over here we prefer using shatavari kalpa as a part of pre-pregnancy regimen. Also regular massage with medicated or sesame oil over the abdomen and back will help relieve the pelvic pain. Cybervaidya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Chyavanprash in original without bhasmas and metals is available with all major ayurveda companies in Kerala. There they use only herbs and natural medicines. Try Kottackal Arya Vaidyasala or Nagarjuna Pharma Thodupuzha or Kerala Ayurveda Pharmacy Ltd athani Aluva.
