One of Ayurveda's most treasured cooling ingredients, now available year-round from King Uncle. Tragacanth Gum — known across India as Gond Katira — is a natural resin harvested from wild Astragalus shrubs, dried into pale yellow crystals, and used for centuries as a powerful body coolant, gut soother, and energy tonic.

When soaked overnight in water, a single teaspoon blooms into a large, translucent, jellylike mass — a dramatic transformation that reflects its extraordinary water-holding capacity. This bloomed gel is what you add to cold drinks, lassi, and milk for one of India's most effective natural cooling remedies.

Why Gond Katira is exceptional:

• Powerful natural body coolant — reduces internal heat, especially in summer
• Rich in dietary fibre — soothes and regulates the digestive system
• Natural energy sustainer — provides slow-release energy without a sugar spike
• Supports skin health — the high water content aids hydration from within
• Ayurvedic remedy for weakness and fatigue — traditionally given to new mothers and recovering patients
• 100% natural resin — no additives, no processing, straight from nature

How to use: Soak 1 tsp of Gond Katira crystals in a glass of water overnight — they will bloom into a large, jelly-like mass by morning. Add the bloomed gel to cold milk, rose sherbet, or lassi with a little sugar or honey. Drink first thing in the morning or as an afternoon cooler. Use sparingly — a little goes a long way.

Storage: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture. The dry crystals last indefinitely when kept dry.
