Herbal Supplements for Digestion and Metabolism
Digestion and Metabolism In Ayurveda digestion is fundamental to health. The well-known saying 'You are what you eat' might more realistically be 'You are what you digest'.
In the Ayurvedic view food does much more than just provide the body with nutrients, minerals, trace elements and energy. Its main value is as a source of intelligence or balance.
It is said that a strong digestion gets the greatest value out of the food or converts the food to the highest value products. Maharishi Ayurveda offers a number of products to help keep the digestion in top condition.
Herbal Digest Tablets (MA927) Ref: 90927 Helps the whole digestive system. Take before meals as an appetizer and after meals to balance digestion and gas production.
Balance your appetite and improve your digestion. Proper digestion and metabolism convert foods into healthy tissues, abundant energy and blissful senses. If the process of digestion is sluggish, your body creates Ama, the fertile ground for disease.
Herbal Digest supports all five bhutagnis, regular appetite and freedom from cravings, making you feel more light and comfortable.
Pomegranate Seeds help balance and stimulate both the appetite and the process of digestion. The seeds are processed in the unique and specific way described in traditional texts. This maximizes the potency.
The ingredients in Herbal Digest include the six ayurvedic tastes: sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter and astringent. Each taste stimulates a different aspect of digestion and metabolism.

Health Tip - Hot Water
Health Tip Drinking hot water regularly is a classical Ayurvedic recommendation for balancing Vata and Kapha Dosha, strengthening digestive power, and reducing metabolic waste that may have accumulated (Ama).
Boil a sufficient amount of un chlorinated tap water or (still) mineral water in an open saucepan, for at least ten minutes. Keep this water in a thermos flask and take a few sips (or more if you are thirsty) every half-hour throughout the day.
It is the frequency rather than the quantity that is important here. To increase the positive effect you can add 1-2 slices of fresh ginger (or a pinch of ginger powder) to the water when boiling it.
Caution Our food supplements are produced according to time-tested principles of the Ayurvedic texts. However, we make no claim for prevention or cure in the allopathic sense. For treatment of disease please consult a doctor trained in Maharishi Ayurveda or a Maharishi Ayurveda Health Centre
