Kalmegh (Andrographis paniculata) tincture - made from ground herb
What is Kalmegh?
Kalmegh, also known as Andrographis paniculata, is often referred to as the "queen of bitter plants". This upright-growing plant with numerous leaves and small white flowers may look rather modest at first glance. In its native regions in South Asia and Southeast Asia, it is traditionally valued. Kalmegh prefers warm, humid locations and is therefore especially suited to tropical and subtropical regions.
In line with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda, we use the above-ground parts of the plant in our products. These include the leaves, flowers and stems, which are especially valued in these traditions.
For our products, we select plants that meet our defined selection and quality criteria.
Kalmegh in Ayurveda and TCM
Kalmegh naturally contains various plant compounds, including diterpenes and other secondary plant constituents. Its distinctly bitter character is one reason why Kalmegh has traditionally played a special role in countries such as India, Indonesia, China and other parts of Asia.
In Ayurveda, Kalmegh has been described for a very long time and is mentioned in classical texts. There it is regarded as one of the well-known bitter herbs and is classified in different ways within traditional botanical knowledge.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Andrographis paniculata is also known as a bitter herb. This classification refers to traditional concepts such as bitterness, heat/cold and meridians. These details are provided as botanical and cultural background and are not intended as a reference to medical use.
Kalmegh is also familiar to many people from the publications of Stephen Harrod Buhner.
