(i) Amalaki, i.e. the Indian gooseberry, is the richest source of vitamin C in the world. It is a light green fruit with a sour taste due to its acidic content. The fruit is cooling and refreshing. It also has laxative and purgative properties. Since it has good amount of vitamin C, amalaki hastens blood clotting and heals wounds. In some cases, amalaki has been used to renew lost sexual vigor in men and women with success.
(ii) Bibhitaki is a bitter herb, also popularly known as behra. Like amalaki, it also has beneficial effects in healing of wounds. It is a tonic and a laxative. It can reduce fevers, and hence it is an antipyretic.
(iii) Haritaki is one of the mildest and safest laxatives used in Ayurvedic medicine. It prevents blood clotting. Haritaki is a stomachic; it improves the functioning of the stomach and facilitates digestion. Haritaki is used to improve all nutritional imbalances in the system, and looks after the entire digestive, absorptive, assimilative and excretory process.
Hence, Triphala which is made up of these three valuable components is a real boon to Ayurveda. Recently, the potential of Triphala in stopping the growth of cancerous cells in the body is being studied in greater detail.
The following are the general properties of Triphala:-
(i) Triphala has anti-inflammatory properties.
(ii) Triphala regulates the functioning of the cardiovascular system and the liver.
(iii) Triphala has excellent effect on the digestive system. It has laxative properties.
(iv) Triphala can reduce the cholesterol that is accumulated in the blood.
(v) Triphala is an expectorant.
(vi) Triphala fastens the healing process, because it has collagen, an important cementing material required in the process of blood clotting.
Uses
Triphala is vastly considered as one of the most important medicines Ayurveda has ever provided to the world. The following are the uses for which Triphala is today internationally acclaimed:-
(i) Digestive Problems
All the three constituents of the Triphala have laxative properties. Triphala can stimulate the mucosal lining of the gastric and the intestinal tract, and hence help in digestion. Triphala is prescribed to people having constipation problems. By regular use of Triphala for a few days, the toxins within the intestinal tract are flushed out. Triphala is also prescribed for tonifying (i.e. regulating) the functioning of the stomach and the colon. Triphala is prescribed as an essential medicine for the elderly who are prone to have more digestive problems than the younger people. This is mainly because Triphala is a non-habit forming drug, and it has no known side-effects even after prolonged use.

People Said About Goutezol Gout Treatment
| "My big toe was in horrible pain, so i went to emergency room. Dr diagnosed gout in my foot and gave me pain killers. I did some googling and found goutezol. I like that it's natural with no chemicals in it. Ive been taking it for about 6 months and so far no attack, and my doc confirmed lower uric acid in my blood. thank you!" Jeff, NY |

(ii) Flatulence
Triphala is prescribed to people who have excess acidity in their stomachs. A regular use of the Triphala helps to dissolve all the toxic acids in the stomach. This helps in the treatment of flatulence.
(iii) Gout
Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, Triphala is used in the treatment of gout and other joint problems. Gout is formed when excess uric acid deposits in the joints of the bones. This is removed by Triphala, which gets it expelled through urination. Therefore, the conditions of gout are brought to a minimum.
(iv) Liver Disorders
Triphala helps in the proper functioning of the liver and the pancreas. It regulates the bile duct and treats sluggishness of the liver. Triphala is a support to the liver in performing most of its physiological functions. It is a common medicine prescribed to patients of hepatitis.
(v) Nervous Disorders
Triphala is prescribed in nervous problems like the Alzheimer's due to its cooling and toning properties. It can repair the degenerated nerves and bring the nervous system back to a normal state of functioning.
(vi) Obesity
Amalaki is especially known to disintegrate the fatty accumulation in the body. Thus, Triphala can reduce the excess weight in obese people. In addition, regular use of the Triphala can also heal several of the complications of obesity. Since Triphala can dissolve the serum cholesterol, it decreases the chances of cardiovascular problems. The acrid and bitter components of Triphala are also good in the treatment and control of diabetes mellitus, to which obese people are much prone.
(vii) Ocular Problems
Triphala has beneficial effects in the treatment of eye infections like conjunctivitis and visual problems like cataract and glaucoma. On a lighter note, Triphala is prescribed to treat eye problems such as fatigue, redness and soreness of the eyes. It is used as eyewash in these cases.
Precautions
Triphala does not have any major side-effects. But it must be avoided by pregnant woman. People having complaints of diarrhea and dysentery must also restrict the use of Triphala.
