Why Amla?

The tangy freshness of the Indian Gooseberry rings with health and goodness. Rich in Vitamin C, it works wonders on your natural immunity and vitality. Ayurveda compares Amalaki to ‘Ambrosia’, the heavenly nectar, complete with the five tastes, endowing longevity on the individual who partakes it. Amalaki is one among the Triphala, the three berries that are an indispensable part of the Ayurveda materia medica. One of its synonyms ‘Dhatri’ in Sanskrit means ‘Mother’ which again points to its absolute life-sustaining qualities.

Several of its therapeutic benefits like anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, anti-oxidant, anti-stress, blood sugar and cholesterol regulating, cardiac health-promoting, and blood purifying properties have been established through evidence-based studies. Ayurveda attributes potent ‘Pitta’ pacifying action to Amla. Supplement your diet with this powerhouse of energy, proteins, vitamins, and minerals for a healthier and happier you.
