When we think of ancient Ayurvedic ingredients that have stood the test of time, Mishri Gulkand tops the list. Known for its sweet, soothing taste and health-enhancing properties, Mishri Gulkand is a beautiful blend of Damask rose petals and rock sugar (mishri). This traditional delicacy is not only tasty but also packed with medicinal benefits.
Today, people are returning to natural remedies and age-old wisdom. In that journey, Mishri Gulkand is becoming a favorite household name once again.
What is Mishri Gulkand?
Mishri Gulkand is made by slow-mixing fresh rose petals with mishri (unrefined sugar crystals) and storing the mixture in a glass container under sunlight for several days. This natural fermentation process enhances the taste and medicinal properties of the mixture.
It is commonly consumed as a sweet, spread, or even as a health supplement.
Key Benefits of Mishri Gulkand
Here are some scientifically backed and Ayurvedically known benefits of including Mishri Gulkand in your daily routine:
1. Natural Body Coolant
One of the most well-known benefits of Mishri Gulkand is its cooling effect on the body. It helps in reducing internal heat, which makes it ideal during summer.
2. Improves Digestion
Mishri Gulkand helps balance digestive fire and reduces acidity, bloating, and constipation.
3. Good for Skin
The antioxidants in rose petals make it a gentle detoxifier that helps purify the blood, which reflects in glowing, clearer skin.
4. Boosts Energy Naturally
Due to the presence of mishri, a natural source of glucose, Mishri Gulkand provides instant energy without causing a sugar crash.
5. Helps with Menstrual Cramps
Many women report that regular consumption of Mishri Gulkand helps in reducing menstrual discomfort and hormonal imbalances.
6. Combats Bad Breath and Mouth Ulcers
Its antibacterial properties help reduce bad breath, mouth ulcers, and dryness of the mouth.
