In Ayurveda, its rhizome is heating and bitter and helps balance Vata and Kapha doshas. It is used to support digestion, treat coughs, and improve respiratory health and is often included in remedies like Chyawanprash. In Tibetan and Chinese medicine, it is used to reduce inflammation, ease stomach problems, and improve circulation. Folk medicine uses the rhizome as a powder or tea to treat pain, indigestion, and coughs. Its aroma also makes it useful in hair oils and as a natural insect repellent. Modern studies show it has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, but it is still mainly valued as a warming and healing herb in traditional medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhytochemical Composition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe rhizome contains about 4% essential oil.
