Guduchi is a rejuvenative for Pitta and powerful nutritive herb to take during recovery periods from fevers or infectious diseases. Its hot nature is anti-Ama, not Pitta aggravating and destroys toxins without aggravating heat or fire in the body. Guduchi, like Ashwagandha and Shatavari, is an excellent tonic for the immune system, and therefore one of the best herbs for poor immune function. It increases our positive energy in conditions of debility like chronic fatigue syndrome.

The bitter starch which comes from the plant, called Guduchi or Giloy is the best way to take it. Taken with ghee Guduchi reduce Vata, with sugar it reduce Pitta, and with honey it reduces Kapha. 

Guduchi is one of the rare Ayurvedic herbs that is both heating and cleansing. This rare combination of qualities gives it a range of unique and powerful effects. Although, it is primarily used to treat fevers and infectious diseases which have compromised the immune system, it has many qualities which are beneficial for a variety of situations. Guduchi herb is a potent detoxifier, immune supporter, and general aid for many chronic conditions.

The heating quality of Guduchi penetrates deep into the body and burns up the stagnate toxins known as Ama. These affects help the body to clear the subtle channels and vessels through which communication and essential fluids flow. This has the effect of supporting interaction between all cells of the body which encourages vitality and energy. Because of this, Guduchi is a powerful treatment for many chronic conditions which result from constriction and stagnation in the body, like chronic fatigue syndrome and chronic or intermittent fevers. It also enhances the immune system making it quite effective in the treatment of immune diseases.

Guduchi benefits fevers due to its heating energy. In the condition of a fever the body has pushed the internal heat to the surface of the body, which results in both a high temperature and a loss of appetite. Guduchi penetrates the body and heats it, stimulating the digestive and metabolic processes of all tissues which are compromised due to the fever. Fevers can often be caused by pathogenic infections, and Guduchi's benefits make it just the herb for such conditions. It has potent anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral effects that eliminate the root cause of such ailments. It does this, however, without aggravating Pitta, making it a great tonic for all manners of fevers, as it eliminates both potential causes and simultaneously enhancing the immune system. 

The detoxifying benefits of Guduchi are well known. It is perhaps the best Ayurvedic herb for the clearing of the srotas, or subtle channels, particularly those of the brain. It restores mental ease and clarity that is often hard to come by for those who suffer from chronic fatigue and immune-deficient conditions.
