Arq-e-Badiyan (Fennel Water) is a classic Unani herbal distillate manufactured by Dawakhana Hakim Ajmal Khan. Extracted through the traditional process of hydro-distillation, this "Arq" captures the pure, volatile essence of high-quality Fennel seeds (Badiyan).
In Unani medicine, Arq-e-Badiyan is celebrated as a cooling and soothing remedy for the digestive and hepatic systems. It acts as a powerful Kasir-e-Riyah (Carminative) and Hazim (Digestive stimulant). It is the premier natural choice for relieving abdominal bloating, intestinal gas, and indigestion, while also providing gentle support to the liver and kidneys.
