Pharmacology
Jatamangsi Arka is an ayurvedic medicine known for its calming and digestive effects. It is useful in managing loss of appetite, anorexia and insomnia. Jatamansi contains several bioactive compounds, including Jatamansone, Nardol, Borneol, Linalool, Nardostachin, Quercetin, Kaempferol, Inulin, Gallic acid and others. Jatamansone helps normalize gastric secretions and supports gut-brain signaling, which improves appetite. It calms the psychosomatic factors that often lie behind anorexia, such as anxiety or depression. It has antispasmodic and carminative properties, so it relieves flatulence and discomfort. It also increases gastric motility and the secretion of digestive enzymes. Jatamansone is a potent CNS depressant with sedative and tranquilizing effects. It increases GABAergic activity, which reduces neuronal excitability and leads to better sleep onset. Nardol stimulates parasympathetic activity, which raises digestive secretions and appetite. It relieves gastric discomfort, flatulence and acid dyspepsia, and it soothes the GI tract and supports better digestion. Borneol reduces abdominal discomfort, flatulence and cramping. It induces relaxation, shortens the time to fall asleep and improves sleep quality. Nardostachin alleviates symptoms like bloating, nausea and abdominal fullness.
