Ephedra (E)
Ephedra is a dry, stalky plant that favours dry, barren land, and is specific for cold, wet, damp lung and circulatory conditions. It is invaluable for acute asthma and allergic respiratory attacks with kapha and cold symptoms. Somalata means the ‘soma creeper’ referring to ‘soma’ the divine plant that induced transcendental states. Although Ephedra spp. have been associated with soma this is not confirmed and Ephedra is not a creeper.

 
Triphala Shatavari is a cooling and nourishing herb from the asparagus family. It contains precursors to female hormones that help tonify and balance the reproductive system. A natural alternative to HRT, Shatavari is clinically proven to alleviate many symptoms of the menopause including dryness and hot sweats.   Triphala Aloe Vera is renowned for maintaining youthful looks, healthy skin and balanced digestion. It's particularly good for women's health and tonifies the reproductive system. It has cooling properties to help alleviate menopausal symptoms and also works well to support gentle detoxification of the liver.
