Scientifically known as Tinospora Cordifolia or Guduchi in Hindi, Giloy is called the powerhouse of immunity, and rightfully so. In Ayurveda, it is one of the main herbs used for healing and is one of the three Amrit plants. Amrit refers to the plant of immortality, something that doesn’t die and doesn’t let you die.
