Health Benefits of Shatavari Churna
Let’s explore the main benefits of Shatavari Churna for your health and wellness.
1. Supports Women’s Health and Hormone Balance

- Reduces mood swings and tiredness during periods
- Balances female hormones naturally
- Promotes healthy and regular menstrual flow
Tip: Mix ¼–½ teaspoon of Kalera Ayurveda Shatavari Churna with warm milk twice daily for best results.
2. Increases Breast Milk Production
For new mothers, Shatavari acts as a natural galactagogue — a substance that increases breast milk production.
It helps in balancing hormones and improving milk flow, making it very useful for lactating mothers.
Benefits for mothers:
- Improves breast milk supply
- Boosts post-delivery energy and mood
- Supports emotional well-being during breastfeeding
3. Helps in Managing Menstrual Disorders
Women facing irregular or heavy menstrual bleeding can benefit from Shatavari. It acts as a uterine tonic, strengthening the uterus and helping control excessive bleeding.
Ayurvedic view:
Its Sita (cool) nature helps calm aggravated Pitta dosha, which is often the cause of heavy bleeding.
Tip: Take Shatavari Churna with honey and milk to support healthy uterine function.
4. Boosts Immunity and Energy Levels
Shatavari Churna works as an immunity booster. It has Rasayana (rejuvenating) properties that improve body strength and resistance to infections.
How it helps:
- Fights tiredness and weakness
- Enhances stamina naturally
- Improves body’s healing power
If you feel low energy or get sick often, regular use of Shatavari can help strengthen your immune system.

Shatavari helps calm the mind and supports good sleep. It balances Vata dosha, which is responsible for overthinking, restlessness, and anxiety.
Benefits:
- Promotes relaxation and peace of mind
- Helps improve sleep quality
- Supports emotional balance during stress
A cup of warm milk with a pinch of Shatavari powder before bedtime can help you sleep better.
6. Improves Digestion and Reduces Acidity
Shatavari is soothing for the stomach. It helps reduce acidity, heartburn, and ulcers due to its Sita (cooling) and Ropan (healing) properties.
How it works:
- Protects the stomach lining
- Helps in better digestion
- Relieves acidity and burning sensation
For people with weak digestion, it’s best to take smaller doses as Shatavari is heavy (Guru) in nature.
