Database of 369 Ayurvedic medicinal plants from classical Ayurvedic texts (Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Bhavaprakasha Nighantu). Each entry includes the herb’s Ayurvedic pharmacological classification — Rasa (taste), Guna (qualities), Virya (energy), Vipaka (post-digestive effect), and Prabhava (specific action) — along with Dosha effects, Sanskrit synonyms, and traditional indications.
ⓘ Information
Ayurvedic pharmacology (Dravyaguna) classifies every substance by a multidimensional system:
Rasa (taste) — There are six tastes: Madhura (sweet), Amla (sour), Lavana (salty), Tikta (bitter), Katu (pungent), Kashaya (astringent). Each taste has specific physiological effects.
Guna (qualities) — Each substance possesses inherent qualities such as Laghu (light), Guru (heavy), Snigdha (oily), Ruksha (dry), Sheeta (cold), Ushna (hot).
Virya (energy/potency) — The inherent heating (Ushna) or cooling (Sheeta) energy of a substance after ingestion.
Vipaka (post-digestive effect) — The taste that emerges after digestion: Madhura (sweet), Amla (sour), or Katu (pungent).
Prabhava (specific action) — The unique therapeutic effect that cannot be explained by Rasa, Guna, Virya, or Vipaka alone.
Dosha Karma — Whether the herb pacifies or aggravates Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
