Guggulu (Commiphora wightii), the sacred resin of Ayurveda, is one of the most powerful detoxifying and rejuvenating agents described in classical texts. Known as a Yogavahi, it enhances the therapeutic efficacy of co-administered herbs.

With its unique combination of Tikta (bitter), Katu (pungent), and Madhura (sweet) tastes, Laghu (light), Ruksha (dry), and Tikshna (sharp) gunas, Ushna virya (hot potency), and Katu vipaka (pungent post-digestive effect), it balances Vata and Kapha, while slightly increasing Pitta.

Traditionally used in managing joint disorders, obesity, cholesterol imbalance, and chronic inflammatory conditions, Guggulu possesses Lekhana (scraping), Medohara (fat-reducing), Amapachana (detoxifying), and Shothahara (anti-inflammatory) actions.

Its broad-spectrum effects also extend to wound healing, thyroid regulation, blood purification, and hormonal balance.
