    Anemia

    Mandur bhasma also reduces general fatigue, physical weakness and yellow discoloration of the skin. It helps relieving almost all anemia symptoms including shortness of breath, dizziness, swelling and headaches. It also helps treat vertigo, laziness, anorexia and loss of appetite, which occur due to anemia.

    In people with severe anemia, heartbeat becomes rapid and irregular. Mandur bhasma along with Arjuna powder helps reducing this symptom and strengthens the heart.

    However, Mandur bhasma cannot alone work well in the management of Sickle Cell Anemia, but its formulation named as Punarnava Mandur is effective treatment solution for Sickle Cell Anemia. Punarnava Mandur helps produce more red blood cells and completes the requirement of iron. In addition to this, it reduces fatigue and swelling due to anemia.
    Edema

    Edema may have several underlying causes. It may also occur due to severe anemia and liver disorders.

    Geophagia – Earth or clay eating
