General Information:
For thousands of years, we come across the benefits and knowledge of Ayurveda. It is the science about restorative which started in India and now a day very popular and recognized throughout the globe as alternative medicine. The base of Ayurveda would be to increase the life span by focusing sources present in nature. And probably one of the most valuable fruits, as mentioned by Ayurveda, is definitely the Indian gooseberry, which we generally call ‘AMLA’.
Amla tree is deciduous and small to medium in size and grows up to 8 to 20 meters. Leaves are 8-10mm long and 2-3 mm wide. Leaves are light to pale green in colour. Ripening in autumn, the berries are harvested by hand after climbing to upper branches bearing the fruits. The taste of Indian Amla is sour, bitter and astringent, and it is quite fibrous. In India, it is common to eat Amla steeped in saltwater and red chilli powder to make the sour fruits palatable.
The use of Amla in Ayurvedic and folk medicines have been found for thousands of years.
Amla is widely used as a Rasayana (rejuvenative) and an important medicinal plant in Ayurveda. Its fruit pulp is used for rejuvenation purposes and anti-ageing properties.
It has potent immunomodulatory and antioxidant action, so Amla and its preparations are used in ayurvedic preventive medicines. Amalaki reduces free radicals in the body and provides a good amount of nutrients, especially Vitamin C. The fruit pulp of an Amla contains 20 times more Vitamin C content than an orange.
Amla is used in form of Fresh Amla Juice, Preserved Amla Juice, Amla Candy, Amla Churna, and Amla Fruit Pulp etc. Fresh Amla Juice, Fresh Amla Fruit Pulp and Amla Powder are good options to get all its therapeutic and nutritional benefits.
Medicinal parts of Amla are fruits, seeds, flowers, leaves and bark. The fresh fruit pulp is used in different ayurvedic preparations. The dried rind of fruits is ground to make powder and used as Amla Churna (Amla Powder).
How to use:
Decoctions are suitable for roots, barks, large seeds & berries, and other dense material. The simple way to make decoction is, in a saucepan, add 1 tablespoon of dried herbs to 1 cup of water. Bring the water to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30-60 minutes. Strain and squeeze out as much as liquid as possible and enjoy it!
