Organic amla powder (Indian gooseberry), is a highly prized herb in Ayurveda.
Amla powder is an excellent source of vitamin C, containing more of it than oranges. Vitamin C is an important antioxidant that can help to protect the body against free radicals and oxidative stress supporting the immune system. It can help to strengthen the body’s natural defenses and protect against infections and diseases.
Amla powder is traditionally used in Ayurveda as a digestive tonic. It helps promote healthy digestion stimulating the production of digestive enzymes. Known to have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to reduce inflammation in the body and alleviate symptoms of conditions such as arthritis.
It pacifies all three doshas of vata, pitta, and kapha, though it is especially calming to pitta. In Ayurveda’s language of energetics, amalaki is said to have a rasa (taste) that is primarily sour, as well as sweet, pungent, bitter, and astringent.
Recommended intake: 2-5 g Amla powder per day
