One of the many ways by which Ayurveda works to treat illness and prevent it is through the legitimate use of various medicinal herbs, and one of them is Triphala. The most essential polyherbal preparations in Ayurveda, Triphala consists of three healing fruits, namely Amalaki (Phyllanthus emblica), Haritaki (Terminalia chebula) and Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica). When literally translated, Triphala means ‘three’ and phala means ‘fruit.’ Though you may have never heard of it, this fruit has been in use for more than thousand years because of its healing powers.
