An Ancient Root with Timeless Health Benefits

Swallow Root, also known as Magali Kilangu in Tamil, is a treasured medicinal herb in traditional Ayurvedic and Siddha medicine. Native to the rocky forests of Southern India, this root has been used for centuries to rejuvenate the body, detoxify the blood, and support digestive wellness.

Known for its distinctive aroma and therapeutic milky latex, Swallow Root is considered both endangered and highly valuable due to its potent health benefits and limited natural habitat.
