What is Chyawanprash?
"PIOR Living Chyawanprash (“chah – vahn – prash”) is an ancient ayurvedic herbal jam that blends 31 organic and wild-harvested spices and herbs with honey, Ghruta ghee, jaggery, and black sesame oil to create a nourishing jam that rejuvenates the body and mind and supports overall wellness.
As the foremost ayurvedic rasayana (rejuvenative therapy), Chyawanprash is one of most powerful and popular supplements for regular use in ayurvedic medicine. It's beloved for its ability to build ojas (vitality) and stimulate healthy cellular rejuvenation and tissue formation throughout the body. ⁠
From the antioxidant power in Amalaki to the immuno-modulating abilities of Guduchi and the calming adaptogenic effects of Ashwagandha, Chyawanprash's symphony of botanicals work together in harmony to support the respiratory, circulatory, immune, and digestive systems to boost overall energy and wellness, sharpen clarity and focus, and soothe the nervous system."

OK. No joke, this is the best Chyawanprash I've EVER had.

Fantastic news!
PIOR is running a 20% off sale right now.
I'm stocking up for the cold months ahead!

Here's my partner link if you want to order a bottle or 2 or 6.

Full disclosure, this has a looser consistency than a thick jam. I eat it right out of the jar but if not too impatient I'll stir in some warm water. My kids prefer it that way.

YUM!
