<div style="text-align:justify;">
Amongst the six ''rasas,'' the ''madhura rasa,'' because of its suitability to the body, promotes ''rasa, rakta, mamsa, medas, asthi, majja,'' ''ojas'' and ''shukra''. It is also conducive to increasing the lifespan of the person, is pleasing to the six sense organs, promotes strength and lustre, alleviates ''pitta'' and ''vayu'', neutralizes poisons, and pacifies thirst and heat. It is beneficial for skin, hair, throat and strength and is nourishing, vitalizing, saturating, bulk-promoting and stabilizing. It promotes healing of wounds of the emaciated. It provides good feeling in nose, mouth, throat, lips and tongue; alleviates fainting, is most liked by the bees and ants, and is unctuous, cold and heavy.
