MUSTA (Nagarmotha) is the Indian variety of the common nutgrass found in most marshy areas and river bottoms. It is one of the most important herbs for treating female disorders because it relieves menstrual pain, dispels premenstrual congestion of blood and water. It is one of the most effective menstrual regulators.

Musta is one of the best digestive stimulants for Pitta constitution and an effective stimulant for the liver. It improves absorption in the small intestine and thereby stops diarrhea, while at the same time helping to destroy parasites. As such it may be helpful in such problems as Candida, gastrointestinal yeast infections. It is effective in chronic fevers and for promoting digestion in such conditions as gastritis.

As an emmenagogue, it can be used with Shatavari or gang kuei in proportions of 1 to 4, one ounce of the herbs simmered in one pint of water for twenty minutes. With ginger and honey it is a good all purpose medicine for improving digestion. It is particularly good for the emotional problems of P.M.S., i.e. depression or irritability.
