"Phaki" پھکی is a powdery substance made of dried herbs that helps digest food. If somebody has overeaten something and he is having trouble digesting it; he can eat a spoon full of "Phaki" and it will relieve his stomach pain or gastric problem.
It is prescribed by "Hakeems" (traditional doctors who treat patients with herbs).
Anyone who has either lived in India and Pakistan can tell me its equivalent word in English.
