Description
Abhrak is a mineral compound which consists of silicon, magnesium, calcium, potassium and aluminum in traces. According to modern science, there are two types of Abhrak: Ferromagnesium Mica and Alkaline Mica.
According to Ayurveda, Abhrak is of four types: Pinak, Naag, Manduk, Vajra. It is again subdivided according to colors into four types: Yellow, White, Red and Black.
Abhrak is used in Ayurveda in the form of bhasma which is a fine powder. It is generally used to manage male sexual problems like low sperm count and lack of sexual desire due to its ability to increase sperm count and aphrodisiac property.
Abhrak bhasma might be good for diabetics as it helps manage blood glucose levels due to its blood glucose lowering (hypoglycemic) activity. Ayurveda recommends taking Abhrak bhasma with guduchi satva or turmeric juice to improve metabolism and manage blood sugar levels due to its Deepan (appetizer), Pachan (digestive) and Rasayana properties.
Abhrak bhasma should be taken in recommended dose and for a recommended duration as per an Ayurvedic doctor’s advice
