Adulsa, commonly called Vasa in Ayurveda, is a popular medicinal plant. All parts of this plant (leaves, flowers, roots) have medicinal properties. It has a characteristic odor and bitter taste.
Consuming Adoosa powder along with honey is considered to be beneficial in cases of respiratory infections such as whooping cough, bronchitis, asthma as it helps promote the secretion of sputum from the air passages due to its expectorant property.
