Shatavari is a species of asparagus, a climbing plant with needle-like leaves that grows in the Himalayas and throughout India. The medicine is in its tuberous roots, which are juicy and nutrient-dense. These roots are a powerful adaptogen and a nourishing tonic, rich in saponins that provide its wide-ranging health benefits.
Shatavari is the queen of herbs for female health in Ayurveda. Its name translates to “she who possesses one hundred husbands,” alluding to its profound rejuvenating effect on the female reproductive system. It is a cooling and nourishing herb that pacifies Pitta and Vata doshas. It is used to support fertility, promote healthy lactation, regulate menstrual cycles, and ease menopausal symptoms. It is also a superb digestive tonic, soothing an inflamed gut.
We source our Shatavari roots from organic farms, ensuring they are harvested at maturity when they are plump and full of beneficial compounds.
The roots are peeled, dried, and carefully milled into a fine powder, preserving their sweet, nourishing, and hormone-balancing properties.
