Ayurvedic Home Remedies: Triphala Health Benefits

Triphala (Trifala) has a myriad benefits primarily because of its composition of 3 powerful healing herbs - Amalaki, Haritaki and Vibhitaki. The 3 herbs in dried powdered form are blended together in equal proportions.

In Ayurveda, Triphala is considered a 'tridoshic rasayan', having balancing and rejuvenating effects on the three constitutional elements that govern human life: Vata which regulates the nervous system, Pitta which maintains metabolic processes, and Kapha which supports structural integrity.

Triphala for Digestion and Colon Cleansing -

Colon cleansing is an ancient and proven practice for rejuvenating the body. It helps to detoxify and clean decayed food residues and other toxic substances accumulated in the intestines walls. Purging the colon helps get rid of constipation, hemorrhoids, parasites, flatulence, acne, bad breath and foul body and also helps prevent colon cancer. Headaches, irritability, and depression have also been found to be relieved by clearing the colon.

Triphala for Weight Loss -

Overeating and obesity disrupt digestion and overburden the gastrointestinal tract. The liver and bowel which are internal organs of elimination get congested leading to poor nutrient assimilation, imbalances, overgrowth in the intestinal microflora, and putrefaction of ill-digested food.

For such conditions, triphala can be highly effective in promoting digestion, removing toxins and preventing stagnation of both the liver and intestines. Better digestion signals satiety to the body preventing food cravings

Triphala for Blood Purification, Blood Circulation and Blood pressure -

Triphala's strong affinity for micro-organisms prevents them from causing damage in the body and renders them inactive. This astringent property of Triphala helps in purification of blood and also helps in maintaining the proper density of the blood. Triphala's blood purification properties also make it useful in treating skin conditions.

Triphala for Immunity -

Triphala has powerful anti oxidant agents that help in regularizing the metabolism of cells and ease their proper functioning. This reduces the risk of production of free radicals that are the main cause of aging.

Triphala for Controlling Diabetes -

Studies have shown Triphala's benefits in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. Triphala helps in stimulating the pancreas thereby promoting insulin secretion.
