Triphala: A Traditional Ayurvedic Compound
Triphala is a balanced blend of three Indian herbal fruits: harada, amla, and behada.
This formula is unique in that the astringent qualities of the fruits serve to tonify the colon, thereby promoting internal cleansing naturally.
The Three Fruits of Triphala
- Amla (Emblica officinalis): Amla is one of the most commonly used health-promoting fruits of India. Also known as Indian gooseberry, it is extremely sour and astringent. According to the late, two-time Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Linus Pauling, amla contains the highest concentration of all fruits of heat-stable vitamin C, noted for its powerful antioxidant activities. Amla is the primary nourishing component of the Triphala formula.
- Behada (Terminalia belerica): In Ayurveda, behada is classified as sour, astringent, and warming. Though it is considered the most cleansing of the three ingredients, it also contains up to 31% linoleic acid and is rich in phenolic compounds.
- Harada (Terminalia chebula): Of the thousands of Ayurvedic herbs, harada is the most commonly used. It is considered so precious that it is said “do not worry if you do not have a mother as long as you have harada.” Like the other fruits, harada is strongly astringent, and is often used for the health of the mucosa. This three-fruit combination balances each of the different bodily systems identified in Ayurveda, in order to maintain and restore balance to the entire system.
Who Can Benefit from Triphala Tablets?
The short answer, according to Ayurvedic herbalism, is absolutely everyone. Triphala is considered the most balanced of all herbal compounds. It is designed to support normal digestion, assimilation, and elimination which is important to us all. In the United States it is most commonly relied upon as a cornerstone to a botanical cleansing program, and to support a healthy bowel system.
Triphala Tablets can be especially beneficial for those who tend to have a sluggish gastrointestinal tract due to sedentary lifestyles and over consumption of red meat, refined carbohydrates, and dairy products.
Mr A.B –
What is a person with IBS/IBD or anyone with a poorly diagnosed and ineffectively treated digestion related disease to do? As we know, allopathic (conventional) medicine is concerned with treating symptoms, not cures and so prevention and cure is outside of its remit leaving ‘IBS’ sufferers floundering and desperate.
I speak from many years of experience, and have been trained as a nurse, and spent a part of my training in one of the top Gastroenterlogy wards in the UK. Unfortunately the experience compounded in the most fearful way the concerns I have had about allopathy and their oft dangerous ‘treatment’ regimes.
Prior to that I had seen NHS and private specialists ofr my own severe case of IBS, and had found their investigations advice and medications less than useless – meaning that their regimes exacerbated the problem rather than quelled it.
Years of omitting and analysing the effect of foods, taking supplements and lifestyle changes ensued yet I could not master the illness. Eventually, my researches led me to the Ayurvedic Triphala – and although its effect had in my case to go hand in hand with a sense of well being and small but benign changes in my life, by and by, it was clear that Triphala was the most effective and key factor in my considerable health improvement. Initally I had some raw powder freshly ground on a trip to India. Latterly I had another well know Indian Triphala brand, and coming upto date, I have started taking Triphala Gold as my main source of Triphala supplemented by occasional doses of the Inidan brand.
Triphala Gold contains 4 times the amount of each of the Indian branded capsules – so that has to be taken into account. Cost wise, gram for gram, Triphala Gold is a bit more economic, however the effect of Triphala Gold even with my 2 weeks of taking it is markedly effective and reassuring. It is in my opinion an excellent form of Triphala, and it seems to help clear the bowel better and with greater regularity.
I enquired about Triphala directly to Synergy-Health via email before buying it,and they responded immediately, which was positive customer care.
The item was competitively priced against other sellers, however, my genuine feeling is that given that more and more sufferers are likely as pesticide and other environmental and pharmaceutical toxins accrue within our bodies, and therefore more people will be tied most of their life to consuming Triphala, it should be priced more affordably – it is essentially a daily food item for sufferers. This is no reflection on Synergy-Health, however as I’m sure the costing is directly related to the margins allowed by the manufacturer/distributor. If you study Triphala you will find that it is a tonic for blood circulation, skin health with all round health benefits – a ‘super food’, no less.
In summary, I could not recommend Triphala Gold enough and Synergy-Health is one of the top vendors that seem to respond and care for their customers.
