- According to traditional Tibetan recipe
Indian gooseberries grow on the Amla tree, which according to Indian lore is said to be the world's first tree. The berries have traditional uses in Ayurveda and are a rich source of vitamin C, much like the better-known Camu Camu.
What is Amla (or Amalaki)?
Amla or amla fruit is a fruit that grows on the Amla tree in tropical Asia. The fruit is also called Indian berry or Indian gooseberry. The fruit is similar in appearance to the gooseberry as we know it here, but is larger and in terms of its contents, amla does not resemble our gooseberry.
The Latin name is Phyllanthus emblica from the plant genus Phyllantus, which is found mainly in the tropics and has edible fruit.
How does Amla work?
Amla is primarily a very rich source of vitamin C, more so than citrus fruits. It also contains B vitamins, calcium, potassium, iron, flavonoids and polyphenols, among others. In traditional Indian medicine, amla has long been used for its many uses.
The West is now slowly beginning to discover the benefits of this versatile fruit. Meanwhile, amla extract is available here in capsules, tablets and powder and also as a high-quality ingredient of formula products.
Experiences with Amla
Amla has long been used in India in Ayurveda, and for good reason. Our experiences are also positive. Users appreciate amla as a natural source of vitamin C.
Amla side effects
As far as we know, no side effects have been reported from amla. When adhered to the prescribed daily dosage, amla supplements are safe. An organic amla product is preferred, as it guarantees that no chemical pesticides were used for cultivation.
