Guest guest Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 according to sharangadhara samhita the medicinal value of asava and arishta increases with time. for medicated ghee it is one year and four months. and later the medicinal properties starts to decline. what kanika told might be for pure cow's ghee.
