Bala which means “strength” is a popular herb in Ayurveda. All parts of Bala possess various medicinal properties, especially the root.
Bala helps in managing weight by suppressing appetite and decreasing the urge to overeat. It also helps to manage blood glucose levels due to its hypoglycemic (blood sugar lowering) property. Bala also protects the liver cells against cell damage caused by free radicals due to its antioxidant and hepatoprotective activity. This antioxidant property also helps to protect the heart cells against free radical damage and manages blood pressure by preventing constriction of blood vessels. Bala might also be beneficial in managing bleeding piles due to its blood coagulant and astringent properties.
According to Ayurveda, taking Bala powder along with honey or milk twice daily helps to manage erectile dysfunction in men due to its Vajikarna (aphrodisiac) property. It also improves immunity due to its Rasayana (rejuvenating) property.
Massaging your joints with Bala oil helps to manage symptoms of rheumatism like joint pain and swelling due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Bala powder along with coconut oil can also be used for quick wound healing due to its Ropan (healing) property and Sita (cold) nature.
