Amalaki Capsules 500mg

AMALAKI known as Amla or Dhatri in Sanskrit - meaning the nurse, as it is like a nurse or mother in its healing properties.

One of the properties that makes Amla divine is that it contains five of the six tastes: sweet, sour, bitter, astringent and pungent.

The only taste missing is salty.

This gives it a holistic, balancing effect on the doshas meaning it is tridoshic and is pacifying to all three doshas (Vata, Pitta and Kapha).

Very few fruits have this quality. It is good for all seasons, all weather conditions, and all body types.

Amalaki is useful in treating cough, cold, sore throat and respiratory tract infections.

Being an antioxidant it protects the body from free radical damage and hence prevents premature aging.

Amalaki is the richest source of natural Vitamin C.

One fruit contains as much vitamin C as one to two dozen oranges in what is reported to be a heat-stable form which is not disturbed by processing.

It is the basis for CHYAWANPRASH, an herbal Elixir or Jam, that is the main general all-around tonic and restorative in Ayurveda.

It is sattvic in quality and gives good fortune, love and longevity - it is itself a long-living tree.
