Ayurveda’s Magic Elixer

Triphala is an Ayurvedic powdered formula that consists of three types of fruit; amalaki, bibhitaki and haritaki. Triphala is most known for its digestive power and ability to support regular bowel movements. However, it also has the highest vitamin c in the world, making it a powerful immune support!

This incredible medicine, considered a magic elixer, can be used to help us understand which tastes are lacking in our diets. The six Ayurvedic tastes; sweet, sour, bitter, pungent, astringent & salty, are all represented in triphala. The initial taste and then the aftertaste represent the tastes that should be included in our diets to promote balance.
