  • Additional information

    Mahua is majorly used in making liquor; however, that s not the only use of it. The mahua fruit is considered a natural sweetener.

    Mahua finds frequent mentions in Vedas. Speculation suggests that what s referred to as Soma in Vedas is actually mahua. According to Sushruta Samhita penned by Sushruta, those who drink sweet soma do not age and remain unaffected by fire, poison, and even weapon attacks.

    Charaka s medicinal book, Charaka Samhita says that a properly regulated amount of mahua, blended in the right proportion is capable of balancing out doshas. Charaka Samhita which is the oldest surviving text in Ayurveda also warns about the precautions one must exercise before consuming the drink owing to its alcoholic properties.
