Do you take a handful of vitamins everyday? With the popularity of natural health, everyone is popping a lot of herbal and nutritional supplements each morning and throughout the day. While it's great that we're becoming a more health conscious culture, most people admit that they area not as healthy as they'd like to be. Mention the word rejuvenation, and everyone clamors to get some. Ayurveda teaches that the basis of good health is proper digestion, and offers Chyavanprash herbal jam as a tasty, effective way to boost our metabolism and promote whole-body rejuvenation.

Chyavanprash has been used for thousands of years in India as a daily supplement. It contains powerful herbs to tonify the immune system, kindle the digestive fire, and boost strength and vitality. The primary ingredient is the Amalaki fruit, now widely recognized as a potent antioxidant containing the highest source of Vitamin C of any fruit. The sour flavor of the Amalaki is perfectly balanced by the sweet nature of the ghee, honey and raw sugar that are part of the traditional formula. These ingredients are important as carriers for the medicinal herbs to the deep tissues in the body. The slightly pungent flavor from the Indian long pepper sparks the digestive fire and breaks up mucus. Chyavanprash is especially beneficial for the lungs, and can be useful in preventing cough, colds and flu.

Chyavanprash is really easy to take because it is sweet and smooth and delicious. It can be taken first thing in the morning and then again in the afternoon, if you tend to need a pick-me-up around then. You get the energy boost without the depleting effects of caffeine.

Kids love it, and it's one of the best things you can give them to balance their digestion. It works really well with kids who don't like to eat very much by kindling their digestive fire and improving their appetite. Taken every day, Chyavanprash will keep your kids hungry, healthy and happy. But be warned, you'll have to fight them off when you're trying to take your own. They'll want yours too.
