Health Benifits And Use of Amaloki

Amalaki (Amla)

Amalaki is great support and nutrition for the digestive tract, among other wonderful benefits including optimal function of the inner and outer skin, arteries, blood purification and liver rejuvenation.

Amalaki refers to the herbal use of the amla fruit, also called Indian gooseberry. The word amla literally means “sour,” and its other name, dhatri, means “mother” or “nurse.” Its associations point to Amalaki’s
reputation as being greatly nourishing and supportive for a great array of body systems and all the body types, or doshas.

As the principal ingredient in Chyawanprash, the pillar Ayurvedic antioxidant superfood, Amalaki boasts a catalogue of benefits, including:

    Rejuvenative for the liver
    Helps balance blood sugar
    Supports a healthy reproductive system
    Promotes stable and healthy energy levels Cleanses and nourishes the blood
    Awakens Digestion
    Promotes healthy hair
    Tonic for a clear mind
    Protects and tonifies the eyes

By supporting the inner and outer skin, Amalaki supports a host of health functions that are dependent on healthy inner skin lining the digestive system and organs. For example, the skin that lines the heart and arteries are uniquely supported by Amalaki. For the outer skin, Amalaki supplementation helps develop that radiance and clarity of the skin. Amalaki is sometimes used topically and is a powerful ingredient in Ayurvedic skin care.
