What is Kalmegh?

Kalmegh, also known as Andrographis paniculata, is often referred to as the "queen of bitter plants". With its many leaves and small white flowers, this upright-growing plant appears rather unassuming at first glance. In its regions of origin in South and Southeast Asia, Kalmegh has long been known as a bitter plant. Kalmegh prefers warm, humid habitats.

For our products, we use the above-ground parts of the plant, inspired by the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda. Leaves, flowers and stems are the focus of this traditional botanical context.

We select the plants used according to our quality criteria.
