Triphala Powder – Organic Formula of Amla, Haritaki & Bibhitaki – for Daily Detoxifying, Cleansing & Rejuvenation* – Maintains Regularity* – 1lb. – Non-GMO Sustainably Sourced

It tastes so disgusting I could only take one sip with the solution I had made and had to throw it. Extremely disappointed

Good Product but A bit costly

As described. Delivered quickly and with no damage.

I'm taking Triphala on the recommendation of my Clinical Herbal Practitioner. My experience with this brand for severe constipation: I have suffered with severe, chronic, IBS-A for the past 20 years. When I'm constipated it can be 7-14 days without a BM. Using digestive bitters (first Urban Moonshine and now homemade) over the past 8 months I have gotten rid of all of my IBS-A symptoms other than constipation. Bitters works for some people for constipation also...just not me. I have tried many things to aid in my constipation over the past 20 years and none were successful...until I tried THIS brand and formula of Triphala. The first Triphala that I tried was a highly rated organic capsule (Organic India) found here on Amazon but it did not work at all for me. 12 hours after my first dose of Banyan Triphala Powder (1st day I took 1t & since then I take a heaping 1/2t) my cleanse started, continues to work as a gentle cleanse and seemingly permanent relief from constipation (I'm praying)!! What a relief!!! My BMs are gradually looking and smelling more like a "normal" person's, which hasn't been the case for the past 20 years. I now "go" 1-3 times/day :) . The taste & how I use this brand of Triphala: I was slightly concerned about the reviews regarding the taste. It doesn't taste great. Since I've been using digestive bitters for 8 months now, the bitter is not a problem for me. What I notice about the taste, way more than bitter, is astringent. It really sucks all of the moisture out of your mouth while drinking it. It is also bitter and slightly sour. A quick swish of water after drinking it makes all of that go away. I cannot add licorice powder to make it taste better because I'm on birth control and ***licorice reduces the effectiveness of estrogen therapies of all kinds. I use a heaping 1/2t of this powder in hot water and leave it covered for 20-70 minutes (in a coffee thermos, at 10am) before drinking it. I have put it in 4-8 oz of water each time. It is hardly an annoying taste in 8 oz of water (to me) but I like it better in 4 oz because I can drink it faster & while it's still warm (which I think tastes better). Other benefits I've noticed: Since the second week taking this Triphala my energy level has improved and my appetite has decreased (which is a very good thing for me). It's not like drinking coffee or taking diet pills...just a gradual overall change. I believe that this Triphala may also be either curing or at least improving my seborrheic dermatitis (SD). SD is a yeast related skin condition, often categorized under the eczema or psoriasis umbrellas. It causes red, inflamed, flaky, itching/burning skin...for me on my scalp and on my face. I have not been using the topical Rx medicine that I was prescribed as much, and progressively less since I started taking using this Triphala powder. I'm very excited for that possible added bonus! I HIGHLY recommend using this brand of Triphala powder for constipation and/or for a gentle colon cleanse!!! It has changed my life dramatically! Hopefully my diverticulitis will prove to be improved when I get my next colonoscopy, which I will be able to attribute all to Banyan Triphala Powder. Best wishes to all of you! UPDATE: I will use this product for the rest of my life or as long as my digestive system will need it. I no longer feel extra energy or reduced appetite from this product, nor do I think it continued to help my skin condition. I think those effects may have been temporary while adjusting to triphala. Please read the comments section where I wrote a more detailed update as a response to a question someone asked me.

Thanks to Triphala powder that helped me to reduce my LDL and triglyceride and over all cholesterol. I actually bought this item to reduce my GI issues which have been improved, but I am truly surprised how it helped me to reduce my lipid levels.

Are you one of those people like me whose body is naturally very hot and dry inside? That can make you very constipated and sluggish because even when you have bm's, you are not eliminating completely. Other stuff I've taken hurts my stomach and I get "cleansed" by getting sick with diarrhea(not good!) How I can best describe triphala's effect on me is when I do go to the bathroom, it feels like I have a complete and very gentle cleansing. I literally feel detoxed. It is like an inner, natural beauty treatment. I also feel more clear-headed and calm. There are so many impurities in the take-out and processed foods we eat(lots of oil, salt, sugar) and you don't want poisons circulating in your system. *I ended up taking this with neocell collagen powder in orange flavor just to make the triphala taste better. I heat water in a jumbo mug and then stir in a quarter teaspoon of triphala(I use a measuring spoon to get a leveled amount, not healing) and one scoop of neocell. Then I sit and listen to my devotional and pretend it's one big tea, sipping slow. Triphala by itself is a great health and beauty boost. It cleanses/detoxes, cools your whole body inside, makes your regular, amla is great for your hair and full of vitamin c, and is great for your skin. Overall a great general tonic. You can take the tablets also but I think it gets digested better when you sip it slowly. I would recommend skipping this product on days when your stomach hurts, feels sensitive, have your period, or you have loose motions already. Do not use it if your stomach is aggravated in any way. Oh and one important thing- I tried taking a full teaspoon of this on a few occasions figuring the more you take, the more cleansed you will be. Wrong! I got a dizzying headache and ended up sick. Somewhere on the internet, I read that this product can blood sugar and lowers blood pressure. Not what happens to me but I definitely cannot take more than 1/4 tsp. without getting very ill. (It was night time and I felt like I would go unconscious, I was so scared to sleep. That's how sick I felt.) Please be very careful in deciding to take this product and the dosage. Ask your doctor if it's ok to take. Always take the lowest dose possible dose that you need, whether it be vitamins, prescription drugs, or in this case herbal stuff. I find natural remedies usually do unaccounted for stuff like lower your blood pressure, too so I would recommend any vites or supplements you start new do it in the morning when you're fresh and alert and not too busy so you can notice any side effects. Don't try out new stuff in the night and go to sleep. May God bless you. I depend on Jesus. He's saved me from more bad scenarios that I could count, medical or otherwise! Be well.
