AYURVEDIC HERBS FOR DIGESTION

The summer heat encourages huge appetites, langour and abandon. 
This can translate to lazy intestines and a slew of health problems.
Beat the heat by supplementing your diet with these ayurvedic herbs to maintain your regularity and good health. 

Triphala, a popular ayurvedic combination, is a digestive aid compound composed of the three superfruits of Ayurveda, Haritaki, Amalaki and Vibhitaki. 

• Amalaki works as a natural antioxidant and removes excess inflammation from the body. It also helps to increase lean body mass and maintain healthy blood sugar levels. 
• Haritaki supports the body’s natural cleansing process by gently removing toxins that accumulate in the colon. 
• Bibhitaki is particularly effective in reducing the accumulation of fat and fluids in the body. 

Regular use promotes good colon health and provides overall support for the digestive function so the digestive tract works optimally.  

Bael, also known as Bengal quince or Bilwa, is a fruit from a sacred tree planted around temples in India. It can be used to relieve digestive ailments like diarrhoea and constipation. It also possesses anti-flatulent properties.
