Keezhanalli Powder

Product Description:
 
Keezhanalli Powder is made from the dried, finely ground whole plant of Phyllanthus niruri, a small herb widely known across Tamil Nadu as Keezhanelli, literally under the leaf, a name that describes how its tiny fruits grow in a neat row beneath each leaf. It is one of the more recognisable plants in traditional Siddha medicine, commonly found growing wild across South India and used in herbal preparations for generations.
 
The whole plant is sun-dried and milled into a fine, green-toned powder suited to traditional decoctions and herbal formulation. Supplied in food-grade quality, it is suitable for both traditional decoction use and formulation work. Keezhanalli Powder is a regular requirement for Siddha and Ayurvedic formulators, as well as herbal tea and wellness brands building traditional blends, and it's just as suited to a home practitioner working from a small batch, or a smaller buyer testing before scaling up.
