Panchamritha is a combination of five ingredients which are Goksheera (cow’s milk), Dadhi from Goksheera (curd from cow’s milk), Goghrita (cow’s ghee), Kshoudra (honey) and Sarkara (sugar). Panchamritha improves immunity and physical strength. Panchamritha is considered as Rasayana because all the five ingredients will support each other to reach the target area of the body, proper absorption and assimilation. It helps to support brain functions like intelligence, memory, grasping power and creative abilities. Panchamritha is a rare combina- tion of Vedas which have both religious and health benefits.
