4.  Sar (quickly spreading) :- Opposite to sthri dravya, sar foods spread fast. People who seek to revitalize multiple organs instantly should opt for sar dravya. For example, triphala churna spreads quickly through our body organs and cleanses colon, enhances eyesight, cures mouth ulcers etc. Such foods also ensure better movements in small intestine that helps excretory functions Example :- milk, triphala. http://www.prakrutiayur.com /PrakrutiJiyofresh
