Grapes Vitis vinifera Linn. Draksha (Grapes) is one of the most valued fruits in Ayurveda, mentioned as the best among fruits by many authorities. The vine is cultivated in Maharashtra, Karnataka, and parts of North India. The fruit is sweet-sour, nutritive, cooling and is one of the best natural laxatives. Dried grapes (Munakka/Kishmish) are extensively used in Ayurvedic formulations. Draksha is an important ingredient in many Asava-Arishta preparations including Draksharishta. The fruit improves appetite, aids digestion, and is excellent for the eyes and heart. It is mildly laxative and beneficial in constipation. Munakka (large dried grapes with seeds) is more potent medicinally than Kishmish (seedless raisins). Grapes are beneficial in Raktapitta (bleeding disorders), Kamala (jaundice), Kasa (cough) and Jwara (fever). Draksha is used in numerous classical formulations.
