Tambul Lehyam (तांबूल लेह्यम) is a traditional Ayurvedic herbal preparation primarily used as a digestive stimulant, mouth freshener, and for maintaining oral hygiene. The word Tambul refers to betel leaf, which is known for its digestive, aromatic, and refreshing qualities. Tambul Lehyam combines betel leaf with other carminative and soothing herbs, forming a flavorful herbal jam that promotes digestion and overall oral wellness.
