AN IMPORTANT RASAYAN

A COMBINATION OF POWDERS OF DRIED FRUITS OF THREE IMPORTANT HERBS FROM

AYURVEDAHARAD OR HARITAKI COMMONLY CALLED

MYROBALAN WITH LATIN NAME TERMINALIA BELLERICA

BAHEDA OR VIBHITAKI COMMONLY CALLED BELLERIC MYROBALAN WITH LATIN NAME TERMINALLIA BELLERICA

USES

good antispasmodic activityas astringent—spongy gums, ulcers, dysentery and chronic

diarhoeahypolipideamic—decreases high density lipoproteins, increases

high density lipoproetins and decreases triglycerrides also immunomodulation—alcohlic extracts are very good anti

oxidantsas cardiotonic—a phenolic compound in it is responsible for

cardiotonic activity. They increase the force of contraction and cardiac output without altering the heart rate. Chebulinic acid – a phenolic glycoside had a pronounced cardiotonic property

good cytoprotective and anti microbial activitygood anti ureamic action due to tannins

USES

very good antitussive and anti asthamatic activity

good hepatoprotective activitylittle anti mutagenic activitytannins in fruit have anti ureamic effectfour compounds extracted from fruit showed

anti microbial effect, and exhibited anti HIV activity, anti malarial activity against plasmodium falciparum, antifungal activity against candida albicans

AMLA

USES

AS ANABOLIC AGENT--raises the total protein levels, increases the body weight, enhanced cellular regeneration, enhanced production and secretion of interferon and corticosteroids.

Antioxidant effect--Experiments conducted at Niwa Institute of Immunology in Japan (Treadway, 1988)

As an antidiarrhoeal-due to the astringent action of tannins in the fruit on the mucosal proteins, resulting in the formation of a protective

Antimicrobial, antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal activity. Inhibitory effects on human immunodeficiency virus-1 reverse transcriptase,

it exhibited significant activity Immunomodulator-Enhances natural killer cell activity As a nutritive tonic--- It was observed that one fruit of amla contained

vitamin C equivalent to nine oranges. In heart problems-multiple effects(check-Tariq et al. 1977). In hyperacidity—very good effects In hypercholesterolaemia In leucorrhoea-A one g dose of equal quantities of amla and guggal with

honey, three times a day was effective in leucorrhoea (Seshagiri Rao et al. 1985).

RESEARCH REWIEWS

THERE ARE MANY REFERENCE OF THE RATIO OF THE THREE FRUITS TO BE USED IN TRIPHALA

BUT

GENERALLY EQUAL PARTS OF THE THREE FRUITS IS MOST ACCEPTABLE

FORMULATION OF TRIPHALA

GOOD ANTI INFLAMMATORY EFFECT

10 GM TRIPHALA + 200 ML WATER---BOIL---REDUCE TO ONE FOURTHSIEVEADD 1 TSF HONEY

TAKE MORNING AND EVENING BEFORE MEALS

ARTHRITIS (JOINT PAINS)

TRIPHAL –3 GMS+

CURCUMIN (HALDI)—3 GMS+

CRYSTAL SUGAR (MISHRI)—6 GM

TAKE THIS MIXTURE WITH WARM WATER MORNING AND EVENING

BLOOD PURIFIER

MAKE A MIXTURE---

TRIPHAL 30 GMS + 10 GMS EACH OF CHIRYATA, NIMBA, HALDI, GILOY

10 GMS OF MIXTURE + 800 ML WATER==BOIL==REDUCE TO 200 ML---TAKE TWICE A DAY WITH CAP GUGGULU 3 CAP

CHRONIC HEADACHES

MAKE A MIXTURE---

EQAUL PARTS OF TRIPHALA, ASHWAGANDHA, MULETHI AND SHATAVARI

TAKE THIS MIXTURE IN DOSE OF 3 GMS TWICE A DAY WITH HONEY BEFORE MEALS FOR 2 MONTHS

WEAKNESS, LOW IMMUNITY

TRIPHALA 10 GM WITH 1 TSF OF GHEE DAILY IN THE MORNING

MIX 1O GM TRIPHAL IN 400 ML WATER AND LEAVE THIS OVERNIGHT. IN THE MORNING STARIN THIS AND WAS THE EYES WITH THIS (IT MAY CAUSE SOME IRRITATION TO THE EYES IN THE BEGINNING)

IMPROVING EYE SIGHT

TRIPHALA --- 5 GMS AndHONEY --- 10 GM

WITH PLAIN WATER DAILY TWICE A DAY BEFORE MEALS

OBESITY

TRPHALA --- 1 SPOONGHEE --- ½ SPOONHONEY --- 2 SPOON

TAKE THIS AS A FIRST THING IN THE MORNING

PREMATUR GREY HAIR

MAKE A MIXTURE

TRIPHALA --- 10 GMS And BLACK SALT --- 1 GM

TAKE 1/3 TSF OF THIS AFTER EACH MEAL WITH WARM WATER

INDIGESTION & UPSET STOMACH

BOIL 20 GM TRIPHAL IN 100 ML WATER AND REDUCE THIS TO HALF---ADD 10 TO 20 ML CASTOR OIL AND DRINK AT NIGHT

IT ACTS AS A VERY GOOD SHODHAN THIS WAY

AS LAXATIVE

MAKE A MIXTURE OF TRIPHALA, NAGARMOTHA AND ATIVISHA IN EQUAL PARTS

TAKE 3 GM OF THIS MIXTURE TWICE A DAY WITH HONEY BEFORE MEALS.

LOOSE MOTIONS WITH MUCUS
