Our bodies can get weak and out of balance by age, harsh climate, illness or poor lifestyle. So you will be surprised how spices in the Siddha texts give plenty of medicinal formulas to enhance health and longevity.
Here is a recipe called Amukkura churnam; the formula addresses the six tastes as a way to balance any dosha. This mixture cures colic, hiccups, chlorosis, rheumatic diseases, insomnia, excessive internal heat and spermatorrhoea. It also relieves stress and strengthens a weakened nervous system. If the person is already strong, this mixture is an aphrodisiac for men.
