Classic Ayurveda Organic Amalaki Churna Powder, 100 g

Amalaki (Amla)

• Amla is considered the most important Rasayana. The fresh fruit is extremely sour and contains a lot of vitamin C. It calms all three doshas, but mainly the pitta dosha.
• Normally, Amla fruits are traditionally cooked shortly after harvest to separate the pulp from the kernel. The resulting powder is usually almost black.
• With Classic Ayurveda the pulp is mechanically separated from the kernel without heating the fruit. The fruits are dried at low temperatures and then ground to powder. This powder is creamy white and contains a high ORAC value due to its gentle processing.
• Modern science has defined the so-called ORAC value to indicate the antioxidant properties of a plant. ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity and is measured in ORAC units per 100 g. It gives the consumer a comparative measure that can serve as an indication of the antioxidant potential of food.
• According to some scientists, the average daily requirement of an adult is about 5,000 - 7,000 ORAC units. The Amla powder contains 100 g each of 123,900 ORAC units (determined by the LEFO Institute - accredited testing laboratory).
• As a comparative example, raspberries contain per 100 g 4,882 units, and Moringa leaf powder contains 62,600 units. Our Amla powder contains a significantly higher level of ORAC units even in small amounts.

Recommended use:

• Drink 2 teaspoons daily in water, a smoothie or sprinkled over food.
