Key Benefits of Sappan Wood
1. Natural Blood Purifier & Detox Agent
Sappan Wood tea is traditionally consumed for its detoxifying properties, helping cleanse the blood and boost immunity. It supports liver health, and scientific research indicates its hepatoprotective activity, making it beneficial for those dealing with fatty liver or liver stress caused by caffeine, medications, or alcohol.
2. Heals Mouth Ulcers & Boosts Oral Health
Thanks to its astringent and antibacterial properties, Sappan Wood is widely used in Ayurvedic oral care. It is a key ingredient in Khadiradi Vati, known for healing mouth ulcers, gum infections, and bad breath.
3. Powerful Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory
Loaded with bioactive compounds like brazilin, Sappan Wood acts as a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, fighting oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. It’s helpful for those with joint pain, skin flare-ups, and chronic fatigue.
4. Natural Red Dye for Skin-Safe Applications
The reddish pigment extracted from Sappan Wood is not only used in herbal teas but also as a natural fabric dye, red ink, and cosmetic colorant. Unlike chemical dyes, it is non-toxic and skin-friendly, ideal for organic brands and eco-conscious consumers.
