Anu Thailam

Anu Thailam

The recipe with 28 herbs in a base of Sesame oil is referred in the Ashtanga Samgraham, a classical text 
dated about 2000 years ago. The verse insists that this composition is considered the supreme in its 
benefits among other errhines. The herbs used for the preparation include Himalayan Cedar, 
Sandalwood, Indian Sarasaparilla, Vetiver, Asparagus, Cinnamon, Liquorice and Lotus petals. 
One to two drops of this oil should be applied on each nostril every morning. Sit comfortably with the 
head slightly tilted back and place the droplet in the nostril. Inhale deeply. Stay for a minute or two.
Regular use of this oil imparts a beautiful and lustrous skin, prevents respiratory allergies, blocked 
sinuses. The virtues Anu thailam are extolled in the verse from Ashtanga Hrdayam.
