The "Videshi Kshup" that Conquered Ayurveda – Instant Cooling Comfort
Experience the icy-hot potency of Allkarts Natural Peppermint Oil. While Peppermint is a gift from the West, it was adopted into the Indian pharmacopeia for its undeniable effectiveness.
The "Chunekar" Connection (Ayurvedic Authority) In his definitive commentary on the Bhavaprakasha Nighantu, the legendary scholar Prof. K.C. Chunekar classified this plant as a 'Videshi Kshup' (Aromatic Foreign Shrub). He bridged the gap between ancient wisdom and modern botany. Following his scholarly vision, Allkarts brings you this steam-distilled essence—sourced from the pristine valleys of Kashmir and Dehradun—exactly as described in the texts.
Why Allkarts Peppermint? (Key Benefits)
-
Cooling Head Care (Shir-Shool): Prof. Chunekar highlighted its use for Shir-Shool (Head Discomfort). Its cooling sensation relaxes tension in the temples and neck, helping to melt away the stress of a long day.
-
Deep Cooling Sensation (Sthanik Sangyahar): The text notes its quality as Sthanik Sangyahar (Local Numbing). In Ayurveda, this refers to its ability to provide a temporary "cooling" effect on the skin, making it excellent for massaging stiff muscles and joints.
-
Abdominal Comfort (Vatanulomak): Traditionally known as Vatanulomak (restoring proper Vata flow), massaging this oil (diluted) onto the abdomen helps soothe the sensation of heaviness and promotes comfort during bloating (Adhman).
-
Respiratory Clarity: Just like Eucalyptus, the text notes its traditional use during seasonal changes (Pratishyaya). The sharp Menthol aroma opens clogged airways for a fresh breathing experience.
