EKANAYAKAM ( SALACIA RETICULATA )

Ekanayakam (Salacia reticulata), also known as Ponkoranti, is a powerful herb traditionally used in Ayurveda for its exceptional anti-diabetic properties. It helps regulate blood sugar levels in Type 2 diabetes by improving liver and pancreas function, thanks to its active compounds, Salicional and Kotolanol. Additionally, it supports digestion by acting as an appetizer and relieving issues like loss of appetite and dyspepsia. This herb is also beneficial for liver health, aiding in conditions such as liver enlargement, jaundice, and constipation. Ekanayakam is known for its blood-purifying properties, making it useful in treating blood disorders. For women, it provides relief from menstrual discomfort, including excessive bleeding and premenstrual symptoms.
