The Amazing Benefits of Amla Fruit Powder
Amla has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic herbal applications and may be excellent for supporting healthy digestion and healthy cellular regeneration.
Additionally, Amla Powder has been traditionally used to support a healthy heart and brain through its ability to possibly support healthy circulation and in possibly supporting a healthy detoxification response.
That’s because Raw Amla Powder (Amalaki) contains the potent phenolic combination of:
The bioflavonoids rutin and quercetin also contribute to the overall antioxidant effect and may support a healthy inflammation response of this remarkable fruit. Additionally, amla contains the potent antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase and catalase.
Amla Fruit Powder for Skin, Hair and Nails
Amla (Indian Gooseberry) may also be used externally and might work as an excellent moisturizer for radiant skin, hair and nails. Raw Amla can also be used in shampoos to nourish the hair and scalp and may possibly prevent premature grey hair.
Our Raw Organic Amla Fruit Powder comes from sustainably harvested Amalaki trees natively grown in India. No chemicals or pesticides are used in the cultivation.
If Amla is dark in color it has oxidized and lost most of the beneficial tannins. We use fresh green ripe Amla Fruit and a proprietary low temperature drying process that prevents damaging oxidation and gives us a light beige powder -- the way nature intended. As the enzyme combines the polyphenols with oxygen from the air, it produces quinones, which then combine (polymerize) to make dark colored molecules called melanins. Melanins are the molecules responsible for fruit turning brown. Dehydration can prevent browning. However, dehydration takes time, and the browning reaction is quick, so while the dehydration is happening, we use another trick, and simply prevent oxygen in the air from getting to the cut fruit.
We Exclusively Preserve the Tannins and Powerful Antioxidants -- Bringing you the Highest Quality Nutrients
The anticarcinogenic and antimutagenic potentials of tannins may be related to their antioxidative property, which is important in possibly protecting cellular oxidative damage, including lipid peroxidation. Tannins block the growth of many fungi, yeasts, bacteria and viruses. But if you're amla is dark in color it has oxidized and lost most of the beneficial tannins.
You get a Higher Vitamin C content, naturally
If whole raw amla contains 0.4% to 1.28% vitamin C that means the dried powder may be as much as 10 times more concentrated which would equal 4% - 12.8% vitamin C. It seems the typical amount is on the lower side so average may be around 5%. And because our amla powder is dried in a special way to reduce oxidation and preserve nutrients maybe that gives an extra couple %.
Some possible traditional uses and health benefits of our Organic Raw Amla Fruit Powder may include:

Additionally, Amla Powder has been traditionally used to support a healthy heart and brain through its ability to possibly support healthy circulation and in possibly supporting a healthy detoxification response.
That’s because Raw Amla Powder (Amalaki) contains the potent phenolic combination of:
- ellagic acid -- a natural phenol antioxidant found only in fruits and vegetables
- gallic acid -- found in plants, acts as an antioxidant and may help to protect our cells against oxidative damage, and
- emblicanin A+B -- antioxidant compounds.
The bioflavonoids rutin and quercetin also contribute to the overall antioxidant effect and may support a healthy inflammation response of this remarkable fruit. Additionally, amla contains the potent antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase and catalase.
