Purana Ghrita and its Therapeutic Implications in Neuropsychiatric Disorders

Ghrita is considered the best sneha among the four lipids. Navina ghrita is the one that is freshly prepared. After one year of preparation, this ghrita is known as the Purana ghrita. It may be tested for its chemical constituents, properties, adulterants, purity, etc. In Ayurveda, ghee is used for external as well as internal use. Externally, ghee is mainly used in lepa, tarpana, and internally, it is used as anupana or as a whole medicine. Ghee is used in many preparations in Ayurveda. Snehapaka are primarily prepared with ghrita. The present work aims at a review of the purana ghrita from an ayurvedic as well as contemporary perspective.
