Precautions During Guggula Purification:


1. Never put guggula preparations on strong heat. Always apply low temperature. High temperature causes loss of volatile parts and reduced weight and quality. 2. Use iron pan for purification otherwise it sticks to the container. 3. Keep the mixture in motion. This helps the proper dissolution of Guggula gum. 4. Filter the mixture when it is still hot. On cooling the mixture solidifies and is hard to filter. 5. Sunny days are better for its purification. 6. The filtered and purified mixture of Guggula should be stored in container with clarified butter applied previously to its inner surface.

How Guggula Tablets Evolved In Ayurveda:


Thousand of years back, the basic herbal preparations of Ayurveda were five - juice, paste or powder, decoction, hot and cold infusion. There were several problems with these basic formulations. First is that these are needed to be used immediately. These preparations deteriorate very soon. Second reason is the taste, odor and color are still unacceptable to many persons. And the dose determination also pose trouble. Later powder is formulated by drying the herbal paste. Properly stored powders retain full medicinal value for two months according to ancient Ayurveda practitioners. Vagbhata mentioned in detail in Ashtanga Sangraha that and later Sharangadhara shed more light on tablet formulation of herbs in Sharangadhara Samhita.
