What is Kadha?
It is a tonic that anyone can make to avoid sickness, boost the immune system and digest the food.
We all know that human beings have different physical problems, such as constipation, low immune system, cough, cold, headache and so on.
All these things happen when you have a very low immune system and cannot take the proper amount of food that is required of the body.
Nowadays, people prefer to taste more because people move towards junk food instead of healthy food, and due to that, people cannot digest it and get sick.
If you have a habit of drinking kadha before breakfast, it will freshen up the morning and boost the immune system.
Kadha has many things, each with a different taste because every kadha is made up of different things. For example, some are made up of only vegetables and salt according to taste.
Some kadha recipes are made up of vegetables and different ayurvedic spices that are good for your health and strength.
Kadha is a tonic you can create at home and drink in the morning before breakfast.
Why is it Necessary to Drink Kadha Before Breakfast?
According to Ayurveda, drinking kadha before breakfast is very healthy because the stomach is empty after freshening up in the morning.
At this time, healthy food or drink will improve your immune system and boost your energy for work.
Your body’s organs also feel healthy and fresh, and you can feel the energy in your behaviour. We all know that many scientists prefer that healthy eating and drinking always improve your mood and that you can work better than others.

How Many Ways to Drink Kadhas?
There are thousands of kadha recipes available in the book. Each recipe of kadha is to heal any wound. The main impact of kadha is to heal the wound naturally and boost the immune system.
Dr Ashutosh Gautam, Clinical Operations and Coordination Manager, Baidyanath, tells us, “Ayurveda goes back to five hundred years, and the practice of making and having kadha is almost that old. The decoction or the spice mixture is considered to be one of the oldest forms of medicine invented by humanity.”
According to Panchvidh Kashyapam, described in the Charak Samhita (ancient text on Ayurveda), there are five-way to consume medicinal herbs and plants. These are as follows:
- Swaras (juicing)
- Kwath (decoction)
- Kalka (in paste form)
- Hima (a herb induced concoction, prepared and consumed like tea)
- Phant (a herb-infused concoction where aromatic herbs are soaked in water. The valuable nutrients from the extract get dissolved in water which is then consumed).
Thousands of kadhas recipes are available in the book but don’t try them. Instead, learn 2-5 or 10 recipes of kadha and then try it if you’re sick.
Only choose 1 kadha to boost the immune system and keep your health in charge. You can feel the benefits of kadha in your own body. You can feel the energy in your own body and be able to feel improvement in your health.

Normal Kadha:
- Yes, normal kadha is made up of herbs and spices you can find in any house.

- Now, add 6-7 seven leaves of basil (tulsi) in that water and 2-3 drops of lemon.
- Add a pinch of salt for taste.
You can also add honey instead of salt if you don’t like the kadha a little bit salty and want to make it sweet.
But remember, never add honey drops while the water is hot. Instead, let it cool down and come to room temperature, and before drinking it, add 2-3 drops of honey and drink it immediately.
Well, kadha is more beneficial when you drink it in lukewarm water, and in this case, you won’t be able to add honey, so add a pinch of salt to give a taste to your tongue.
