Turk Powder / Angaravalli / Cheruteku – Traditional Respiratory & Anti-Inflammatory Herb

Herbolaya’s Turk Powder, known traditionally as Angaravalli, Cheruteku, or Bharangi, is a time-honored remedy rooted in ancient Siddha and Ayurvedic medicine. Sourced from wild-crafted or organically grown Clerodendrum serratum, this botanical powerhouse supports respiratory health, digestive balance, joint comfort, and natural detoxification.
