Goghrita : The Nectar In Modern Era And Its Effects On Brain Functions

Abstract

Ghrita (ghee), especially Goghrita made from cow's milk, is regarded by Ayurveda as a multipurpose dietary and medicinal ingredient with restorative properties. Goghrita is well known for its capacity to maintain equilibrium between the Pitta and Vata doshas as well as for being lipophilic, which enables it to cross the blood-brain barrier for more focused distribution and bioavailability. The Rasayana characteristic of Goghrita implies that regular use may help lower the likelihood of mental disease recurrence. Ghrita improves the medicinal qualities of pharmaceuticals when it is processed, which could make formulations using Goghrita more beneficial and effective for treating a range of illnesses. This Goghrita has some peculiar features, which is important for performing its action on brain. This study is an attempt to study Goghrita and its functions on brain function.
