Garlic and Chive both are good. Those who love fresh garlic leaves must plant
chive in the kitchen garden. Throughout the year one can pluck the leaves when
wanted .

meal. Excellent vataghna.
Do put small hole in the peel to avoid bursting.

Garlic and other allium family has been shown to be the highest anti-cancer
food. There might be higher herbs like gavedukha and haritaki but it is
significant among common foods. There is a study by Indian doctors also showing
garlic as well as onion and amchur help with iron and zinc absorption. I don't
know if it is the sulfur. So garlic and allium are important for vegetarians.

One bud garlic gulping on empty stomach (without chewing) clears inner walls of
arteries saves from cardiovascular problems completely a replacement of

and if vata symptoms are showned (pain) then it could be good..but there is
much better ways to deal with gout.
Vd. Hardik bhatt, Idar:

disorder pts.. In maniben hospital most of the paralytic pts advised for rason
oil pan for Panchkarma treatment.
Vd. Sandeep J. Prasad:
In what quantity??? rason oil pure or rason siddh til tail??? Orally??
Vd. Pankaj Chhayani:
I don't exact dose but I think its 20-30ml and its Rason siddha tila taila for
sneha pana... This is good practise as there are two types of pathogenesis in
Vatvyadhi, 1) Avarana 2) Dhatikshya..
Rason is considered best Rasayana in Avrita vata.
So why Vagbhatta says, Rasayana Gramini(रसायना ग्रामीणी)-
best
rasayana among all rasayana..
USA Gary Yuen:
For vata would lashuna be use useful also in abhyanga?

it even after a long time, not even in its godown.

more medicinal properties. Garlic is Rajasic and in Italian dishes they are
made with olive oil, which is warming too and those who consume regularly, see
their mindsets.
Dr. Madhuri Patil Chaudhari:
How to process raw garlic to eat- soak garlic pods, with 4times curd. keep for
24 hrs. blanch like almonds. i.e. remove upper layer..look like blanched
almonds. Deep fry blanched garlic in 1/4th part cows ghrut till lighter red
coloured every morning and evening 3-5 garlic unit wise. small children- only 1
, or half if less than 3 yrs.
Curd seems to be antidote for garlic's
dosh of causing pitta vikruti- Anubhut
yog.
only problem is may stick to teeth. so best to eat
with a handful of roasted chana or brown bengalgram.
for Dhatkshyjanya vatrog. Lasun pak. same as above
lasun preparation , lasun kalka with sugar syrup.along with almonds, saffron,
dry raisins.
Rason oil- i tried this so sharing.
Kalka of rason +4 times mustard oil or sarson ka oil
+4 times of that buttermilk(curd+4part water).
Heated till buttermilk , watery content evaporates
and only oil n kalk remains. Filter n ready to use.
External n internal use for aches n pains in vatrog.
Dr. Jyoti Ashok: 8pods
of lashun+ 8maricha+ 1inch shunti+ 1/2
onion
Ground into rough paste , warm it &apply on
painful knee jt. Good result.
Dr. J. T. Contractor:
Allyl chloride smells exactly like garlics & thus . China is using in
making canned garlic pickles chatni etc which the world is eating it including
us.
Vd. Sandeep J. Prasad:

used as medicine.

Ammonium chloride ?? Is it navsaar

only in narikel lavan it was used. now saindhav is used instead of navsaar,(which
is used - udar rog.)
Vd. Sandeep J. Prasad:
It is a content of avipatikar also. And many local dipan pachan churnas.
USA Irene CCA:
Rasa pungent, Vipaka Pungent, Virya hot. Heavy,Inctous, Penetrating, Sticky,
Mild laxative.
Natural antibiotic,
Lowers blood pressure, Stimulate immune system, Fire stimulant, pacifies
vyana, good for respiratory system and circulatory system, good for sciatica
(apana vayu).
Dr. Uday H. Hanagal:
Lashuna - Katu rasa pradhana, snigdha guna, ushna veerya, Katu vipaka, best
Vata, kaphahara, So it can be used in any Vata avaranajanya & Kapha
avaranajanya conditions. Example, IT peoples used to work in AC &
apathyakara ahara vihara also following, so getting stiffness (sthamba),
Gaurava (Heaviness), & Shoola (Pain) in the body, So here to remove the Avarana of Kapha, Vata
Lashuna Ksheerapaka to be taken in Apanavatakala just before the food in night,
works very effectively.
Croatia Branko Markovic:
how to use lashun in case of asthma?
Dr. Uday H. Hanagal:
Take Lashuna taila 2 to 3 tsp+4 to 6 pinch of saindhava lavana, do smash these
very well, heat it & massage on the chest & backside of the chest means
it covers the shvasavahasrotas, it should be done at morning on empty stoamach,
2 to 3 pieces of lashuna fried in little bit ghee+1/2tsp of guda powder can be
taken just after the food in morning & night, this is doshapratyayanika
chikitsa.
Vd. Tapan:
Rason ksheerpak with Navajivan Rasa in AVN. Showes good results
Vd. Hardik bhatt, Idar: Lasun
+ milk or lasun + jeggary- gol is not virrudh aahar ..????
In some cast of north gujarat they organise one day or three day in winter
that they will eat only fresh lasan and ghee .. And they will get immunity for
1 year .. The elder of they cast not taken any medicine.
Dr. J. T. Contractor:
Yes milk & garlic together or taken separately in a couple of hrs don't
match, it could be interesting to learn from our Jain Bandhu the reason of
garlic being forbidden Ahahar.
Dr. Uday H. Hanagal:
Ayurvedashastra say's about avasthanusara (stagewise) treatment.
Amlarasapradhanadravya + Milk considerd as Viruddha
ahara not Katurasa pradhana dravya.
Some of jain & Bramhin comunity people's not
using Lashuna at all because of its Rajasika guna & contains more
microorganisms.

A real Jain & a real Brahmin does not consume garlic
Dr. Lokesh Mehta:
Rason is one of the main ingredient of
potli used for potli Swed in joint pain. Rasonkheerpak is excellent remedy for
aamvaat .
Dr. Madhuri Patil Chaudhari:
Rason increases bleeding tendencies, blood thinner in a way and blood group A
ppl have a propensity towards easy bruising and bleeding. Pitta vikruti happens
in blood group A ppl easily. my observation. please dont ask for supporting
evidence. i hv none except observation and experience. if i come across, published
evidence will share.
Dr. Uday H. Hanagal:
Lashuna is contraindicated in Pittapradhana vyadhi Raktapitta, Visarpa, Pittaja
hrudrogadi.
Vd. Rupa Raval:
Yes I observed blood group A with bleeding tendency.
Dr. Rachana Mumbai:
Rason is satnyajanan is it true? And it is given in good amount to sutika. One
reason is vayu, but does it help in satnyajanan kriya.
Dr. Uday H. Hanagal:
During Garbhini paricharya & Sutika paricharya Brumhana (Santarpana)
chikitsa is going on so Deepana, Pachana is very essential in this condition so
little bit Ginger (Aadraka) & Lashuna (Garlic) is very much helpful in the
food.

Dr. Bhavesh Modh: આયુર્વેદ સાહિત્ય માં લસણ ને એન્ટિબેકટેરીયલ નો
દરજ્જો પ્રાપ્ત છે.
આધુનિક
એનાલિસેસી થી જાણવા મળ્યુ કે લસણ નીચે ઉગ્રવાદી એલાઈલસલ્ફાઇડ નામના એકટીવ તત્વ ના કારણે છે જેથી તે
ઉગ્રગંધી છે લસણ નુ નિયમિત સેવન
આંતરડા માં રહેલ હાનિકારક બેક્ટેરિયા
તથા પ્રોટોઝોલ નો સફાયો કરે છે લસણ સેવન બાદ તેમાં રહેલ ઉડનશીલ તેલ ઉચ્છવાસ
માં બહાર આવે છે જેની પ્રતિતી લસણ ખાનાર ના મોં ની વાસ પરથી થાય છે.
( કદાચ એટલે ધાર્મિક માન્યતા માં લસણ - ડુંગળી પ્રતિબંધિત
છે વાર્તાલાપ દરમિયાન લસણ ડુંગળી
ની વાસ સામાવાળા ને અકળાવે છે )
ઉચ્છવાસ
માં રહેલ લસણ ના તત્વો થી વાયરલ ઇન્ફેક્શન
ના ચાન્સ ઘટી જાય છે.
લસણ
એ એક ઉત્તમ ટોનીક પણ છે લસણ ડુંગળી ખાનાર
વર્ગ શારીરિક રીતે સશક્ત
અને ટેન્શન ફ્રી હોય છે એમની જાતીયશક્તિ તથા પ્રજનન ક્ષમતા પણ સારી
હોય છે એ પરથી અનુમાન કરી શકાય
કે લસણ મેટાબોલીઝમ રેગ્યુલર કરી હોર્મોન્સ લેવલ નિયમિત કરે છે.
પ્રેકટીકલી હાઈપરટેન્શન
સ્કીનડીઝીઝ તથા હાર્ટટ્રબલ વાળા દર્દીઓ નીચે માનસિક સ્વાસ્થ્ય કંઈક અંશે નબળુ હોય છે. ( મહંદ અંશે ચિંતા
ગ્રસ્ત અથવા જલ્દી ઇમોશનલ થવાની પ્રકૃતિ વાળા
હોય છે. ) આ ત્રણ પ્રકાર ના દર્દીઓ
માં લસણ ની અસર સારી જોવા મળે છે
શાસ્ત્ર
માં રસોનક્ષીરપાક હ્રદયહ્રદયરોગવિકાર
માંપ્રોયોજેલ છે.
રસોન શબ્દ
રસાયન ના સંદર્ભ માં છે એવુ મારૂ
માનવુ છે આમેય લસણ નીચે ઉત્પત્તિ ની કથા
માં અમૃતમંથન બાદ અમૃત પ્રાપ્ત કરવાની
ખેંચતાણ માં શ્રીહરિ ના સેવક ગરૂડજી ના
મુખ માંથી અમૃત ના જે ટીપાં પૃથ્વી પર
પડયા એમાંથી અમૃત ના અંશ સ્વરૂપ લસણ ની
ઉત્પત્તિ થઈ.
લસણ
એ સૌદર્ય પ્રદ પણ છે કેટલાક ને વાંધો પડે
એવુ મારૂ આ કથન છે તો એની સાબિતી માં ઘૃતકુમારી/ એલોવેરા એ લસણકુળ ની વનસ્પતિ છે અને સ્વયંસિધ્ધ છે કે સાંપ્રત કાળ માં
સૌદર્ય પ્રસાધન યોગ માં પુષ્કળ વપરાય છે.

Dr. Ronak Rathod:
Garlic has antioxidant property, also help to regulate hypercholestraemia along
with life style modification
Dr.
Bhavesh Modh: લસણ ખાવાથી
એસીડીટી થાય અથવા એસીડીટી વાળા એ
લસણ ખવાય. ..
આ
સંદર્ભે મારો સ્વાનુભવ રજૂ કરૂ છું
મને
બહાર ના નાસ્તા કે પ્રસંગે લાલ - લીલા
મરચાં વાળુ ખાવાથી તુરંત જ એસીડીટી થાય
છે .
છેલ્લા 15
દિવસ થી રોજ સવારે દસેક કળી લસણ ને ક્રશ
કરી ને બે થી ત્રણ ચમચી ઘરે બનાવેલ દેશી ગાય ના ઘી માં સાંતળી મગ ના
યુષ સાથે લઉ છું પણ હજુ સુધી એસીડીટી સંબંધે કોઈ પણ પ્રકારની તકલીફ
થઈ નથી.
શરૂઆતના
ત્રણેક દિવસ આપાનવાયુ ની પ્રવૃત્તિ વધુ
થયેલ ત્યારબાદ all is well
જેમ
કાળામરી ખાધા પછી તીખા ઘચરકા કે એસીડીટી ને લગતી તકલીફ
થતી નથી . એમ જો લસણ સાથે
લાલ મરચુ પાઉડર કે લીલાં મરચા ના લેવાય
તો એકલુ લસણ
એસીડીટી નથી કરતુ.
