Majith / Manjistha (मजीठ / मंजिष्ठा) — Natural & Powder

Choose Majith / Manjistha in Natural or Powder form, with 100 g, 200 g, 400 g and 900 g packs. The listed botanical reference is Rubia cordifolia L., also called Indian Madder. The exact plant part supplied in this listing has not yet been confirmed. If you need root, stem or a defined specification, contact the store before ordering.

Choose the form and pack

Natural is the unground material option; Powder is the ground option. Both forms have the four pack sizes. Select your form and weight to see current price and availability. The photographs show brown, woody pieces; neither colour nor a photograph proves whether a supplied batch is root or stem. There is no verified powder photograph on this page.

Names and botanical reference

Kew accepts Rubia cordifolia. IISc India Flora Online documents the species and regional plant names. These names help identify the reference species; they do not authenticate this supplier lot or its plant part.

Manjistha root or stem?

Kew's Medicinal Plant Names Services records Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia Manjistha as dried stem and also records root in a different trade reference. The name Manjistha alone therefore does not settle the part packed. Stem-specific Ayurvedic properties or root-specific preparation instructions are not applied to this unresolved material.

Use and precautions

Confirm the exact part and intended use before making an internal or external preparation. For medicinal use, ask a qualified Ayurvedic or healthcare professional to assess the actual material and your needs; no universal dose, facial recipe or skin-whitening result is promised. Seek individual guidance during pregnancy, breastfeeding, for children, with medicines or a medical condition. Do not apply unconfirmed raw material to eyes or broken skin.

Storage

Keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Use a clean, dry spoon for powder. Do not use visibly mouldy or contaminated material.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Manjistha, and is Majith the same name?

Majith / Manjistha is the trade name used for this listing, attributed to Rubia cordifolia, or Indian Madder. A trade name alone does not prove botanical identity or the part in a supplier lot.

Is this Manjistha root or stem?

The exact supplied part is not yet confirmed. Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia Manjistha is documented as stem, while other references mention root. Ask the store for the current batch specification before buying for a part-specific purpose.

What is the difference between Natural Manjistha and Manjistha powder?

Natural is the unground material option; Powder is the ground option. The photos show woody pieces, not a verified powder image. Grinding does not resolve the plant-part uncertainty.

How should I use Manjistha powder?

First confirm the supplied plant part and suitability for your intended preparation. Follow the actual pack instructions and qualified guidance for medicinal use. This listing gives no universal internal dose or skin recipe.

Can Manjistha powder whiten skin or treat a skin condition?

This listing makes no skin-whitening or disease-treatment promise. A search term or traditional association is not proof of a result from this pack. Obtain qualified advice for a skin condition.

What is Manjistha called in Tamil?

IISc lists Manjeeti, Sayakodi and Pacchai muruli for Rubia cordifolia. These are documented plant aliases, not certification of the exact part or grade supplied here.

What sizes are available, and what is the Manjistha powder price?

Natural and Powder forms each offer 100 g, 200 g, 400 g and 900 g. Select the exact form and weight for current price and stock, and confirm the supplied plant part before a specification-sensitive purchase.
