• Other Name : Kehrja
• Botanical Name : Eclipta Alba

 

Eclipta Alba known as  ‘Bhringraj’  in sanskrit/hindi and ‘kehraj‘ in Assamese and karisalankanni in Tamil. It grows commonly in moist places as a weed all over the world. It is widely distributed throughout India, China, Thailand, and Brazil. In the Ayurvedic System, Eclipta Alba, as with all other herbs, is classified according to its qualities, taste, physiological effects, etc. Ayurveda states that it is: Taste – Katu (Bitter), Tikta (Pungent) Quality – Rooksha (Dry), Laghu (light to digest) Energy - Ushna (Hot) Post Digestive Effect - Pungent, i.e. undergoes a pungent taste conversion after digestion. According to Ayurveda, these qualities characterize the medicinal effects of Eclipta Alba on the body, and are expressed in Ayurvedic terms as balancing for Kapha, i.e. balancing for the moist and unctuous tissues and anabolic systems of the body such as fats and fluids, and balancing for Vata, i.e. the nervous system and catabolic functions.
The leaf extract is considered a powerful liver tonic, rejuvenative, and especially good for the hair. A black dye obtained from Eclipta alba is used for dyeing hair and tattooing. Eclipta alba also has traditional external uses, like athlete foot, eczema and dermatitis, on the scalp to address hair loss and the leaves have been used in the treatment of scorpion stings.

• Common Name : Gokshura
• Other Name : Land Caltrops, Chhota Gokhru.
• Botanical Name : Tribulus Terrestris

 

Tribulus terrestris  is an  annual plant  in the caltrop family (Zygophyllaceae) widely distributed around the world, that is adapted to grow in dry climate locations in which few other plants can survive. In  Ayurvedic  pharmacology, tribulus terrestris is used as a powder form of the aerial parts, particularly the fruits, and it is known in  Sanskrit  as  gokshura, meaning the "cow's hoof", possibly because the small thorns tend to get stuck on grazing animals. Nevertheless, an unrelated plant,   pedalium  is also known as  gokshura, more specifically as  bada gokshura  ("big cow's hoof"), whereas the  gokshura  proper is referred to as  chhota gokshura  ("small cow's hoof"). The two herbs are often found mixed in powder blends used.
Gokshura  is believed to contribute to overall physical, as well as sexual, strength by building all the tissues, especially shukra dhatu (reproductive tissue) but it is not considered as a particular vajikarana (sexual functions) herb. It is believed to be useful in kidney, bladder, urinary tract and uro-genital related conditions, where it is said to act as a diuretic.
One chemical compound found in  T. terrestris  is  protodioscin  (PTN).  Also,   T. terrestris  was shown to have strong inhibitory activity on  COX-2. Two  alkaloids  commonly found in  Tribulus terrestulis  are the  beta-carboline  alkaloids  harman  (harmane) and  norharman  (norharmane). Another  phytosterol  that is found in  T. terrestris  is called  hecogenin. Hecogenin has application in the synthesis of  11-oxaethisterone.
