Amalaki – Powder – Phyllanthus emblica

Known as Amalaki in Ayurveda and commonly called Indian gooseberry, this small, green fruit comes from a deciduous tree native to India. Phyllanthus emblica has been an important botanical in Ayurvedic traditions for centuries, where the fruit is traditionally valued as a versatile herb used in a variety of wellness preparations.

Amalaki fruits are typically green to yellow-green with a firm, fibrous interior and a distinctive combination of sour, bitter, and astringent taste qualities. The fruits are traditionally harvested when mature and dried for use in herbal preparations. Our Amalaki Powder is made from dried, seedless Phyllanthus emblica fruit for convenient incorporation into traditional formulations.

In Ayurveda, Amalaki is traditionally regarded as a cooling botanical and is associated with balancing all three doshas, making it a familiar ingredient in many classical Ayurvedic preparations. The fruit also holds cultural significance in India and has been regarded as a sacred plant in Hindu traditions.
