Description
Camphor has been used for many centuries as a culinary spice, incense component, and medicine. But, do you know where it came from or how it is connected with our ancient Ayurveda? Camphor, also known as “Kapur,” is a white crystal-like compound with a strong, pungent aroma and taste. Kapur is primarily derived from the wood of the camphor plant, i.e., Cinnamomum camphora. It is often known for its therapeutic benefits as well as used in spiritual practices! In the ancient science of Ayurveda, it is also referred to as Chandrabhasma (moon powder). As per the Ayurvedic text “Raj Nighantu,” there are about 14 different types of Kapur; out of those, Bhimseni Kapur is one the best variant for therapeutic purposes. It is light (laghu), sheet virya (cooling in nature), ruksha (drying properties), bitter, spicy and sweet, helps in balancing Pitta and Kapha Dosha easily. Bhimseni Kapur balances Kapha Dosha and alleviates Vata-induced pains and aches despite having a coolant property.
