Description

  • 100% USDA certified Organic Haritaki Powder
  • Haritaki is the basis for triphala, the three fruits (haritaki, amalaki and bibhitaki) and is one of the main ayurvedic compounds. Triphala is the best laxative and bowel tonic, a balanced rasayana, and an effective astringent for external use
  • It gently removes accumulated natural toxins in the gastrointestinal tract
  • As a rejuvenative, it strengthens and nourishes the tissues and supports the proper function of the colon, lungs, liver, and spleen.
  • It maintains regular elimination, helps promote healthy body mass, and supports comfortable and complete digestion. Haritaki is highly revered in India, as it is believed to increase energy, intelligence, and awareness.

Known as the “King of Medicines” in the holistic science of Ayurveda, Haritaki is extensively used as herbal medicine to treat many disorders.

Haritaki is available in powder, churna, avaleha, or vati forms.


How is Haritaki powder obtained?

Haritaki is a deciduous tree also called Terminalia Chebula tree that grows in the tropical and subtropical climate of Asia. The tree is known as Indian Hog Plum in English or more popularly as Indian Walnut for its multiple benefits. 

The tall Haritaki tree is characterized by typical oval-shaped leaves and whitish-yellow flowers with a pungent smell.

The dried fruit of Haritaki is often called Chebulic Myrobalan. Haritaki powder is extracted from the seeds of the fruit.

Haritaki is one of the three major constituents of the rejuvenative Triphala formulation. The Ayurvedic medicine system strongly advocates Haritaki usage for treating many health anomalies.


Taste of Haritaki

The herbal fruit has four distinct tastes-

  • Katu (pungent), 
  • Tikta (bitter), 
  • Kashaya (astringent), 
  • Madhura and Amla Rasa (sour taste).

 

Health benefits of Haritaki

  • Good for sexual stamina and health- Haritaki is extremely good at  promoting sexual health in both females and males. It is a natural aphrodisiac and stimulates the production of hormones that help increase libido.
  • Aids digestion and weight loss- Haritaki is a potent digestive herb as it increases the absorption of essential nutrients and also has some laxative effect. It cleanses your intestines and treats constipation. Haritaki reduces obesity as it controls hunger pangs, hence aiding weight loss. It also energizes the body and promotes longevity.
  • Good for eyes- Haritaki is a great eyewash or eye cleanser that helps get solace against various eye infections like dry eyes, inflamed eyes, stye infection, conjunctivitis, and watery eyes. Boil dried Haritaki fruit and then cool it to make the wondrous eyewash.
