Love My Hair SHATAVARI powder

Shatavari is also known as the "Queen of herbs" and the name actually means "curer of 100 diseases". It has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic traditions to assist with healing many health conditions and is really a miraculous herb.

It is rich in phytochemicals, including sterolins, flavonoids, oligosaccharides and saponins as well as in the minerals calcium, zinc, magnesium, selenium, and potassium. It also contains vitamin A, vitamin C and essential fatty acids such as gamma-linolenic acid. Shatavari nourishes our core vitality, known as Ojas in Ayurveda. Ojas is the essence of our immunity, sleep and life force.
