Taken internally, it is a wonderful tonic, rejuvenator and restorative. Externally, it does wonders for your skin and hair. Amla is one of the unique herbs endowed with “rasayana” properties. Rasayana in ayurveda means all round, general improvements that lead to good health and prolonged life. The Indian gooseberry, amla, known as Phyllanthus Emblica or Emblica Officinalis, is sour-astringent in taste and is generally available fresh during winter season. Each 100 grams of fresh amla contains a number of nutrients such as 21.8 grams carbohydrates, 0.2 grams fat, 0.07 grams protein, 0.48 mg iron, 26 mg phosphorus, 12 mg calcium and also riboflavin, tryptophan, lysine, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin.
