This is the famous ''chyavanaprasha'', an excellent ''rasayana''. Particularly it alleviates cough and dyspnea, is useful for the wasted, injured and old people and promotes development of children. It alleviates hoarseness of voice, chest disease, heart disease, ''vatarakta'', thirst and disorders of urine and semen. It should be taken in the dose which does not interfere with the food intake and digestion. By consuming this ''rasayana'' preparation, the extremely old sage Chyavana regained youthful age. If this ''rasayana'' is used by the indoor method, even the old attains intellect, memory, luster, freedom from disease, longevity, strength of senses, sexual vigor, adequate ''agni'' function (digestion and metabolism), fairness of complexion and appropriate discharge of flatus. The consumer of this ''rasayana'' gets rid of senility and enjoys youthfulness. [62-74]
