I'm going to be trying this supplement for the next month, will let you all know how I get on. I'd also be interested to know if anyone else has tried it and what their experience has been.

Triphala consists of equal parts of three myrobalans, taken without seed: Amalaki (Phyllanthus emblica), Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica), and Haritaki (Terminalia chebula). Triphala literally “three fruits”.
Amalaki or Amla (Emblica Officinalis)
Is a fruit rich in vitamin C that builds immunity and an effective antioxidant that removes harmful toxins from the body.
Amla helps to strengthen and nourish the lungs and the respiratory tract by removing mucus
Vitamin C in Amla helps to maintain good reproductive health in both males and females, in whom it further helps to regulate menstrual cycles.
Amla induces iron that aids blood circulation and maintains proper functioning of the heart.
Its detox function helps in the formation of fresh tissues leading to a glowing skin.
Vibhitaki (Terminalia Bellirica)
Vibhitaki acts as a blood purifier and curbs haemorrhage
It is an internal cleanser removing harmful toxins and excess fats out of the body
Its anti-viral and anti-bacterial abilities nurtures voice quality and improves eyesight
Hair roots are strengthened and it enriches hair colour.
Haritaki (Terminalia Chebula)
Haritaki has five rasas , or tastes, being sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent, and astringent
It stimulates the functioning of the digestive system and sensory organs
It is an effective in combating piles, anaemia, gastro-intestinal problems and gall stones
Precautions: Not recommended for acute diarrhea or during pregnancy. Very underweight persons should avoid using this product as it will decrease weight.

I've taken it and didn't see much improvement in my weight or how I felt. Perhaps I didn't try it long enough. It was several years ago and I don't remember the particulars.0

Six tablets of it yesterday as it recommends two tablets two to three times a day. And the only thing on day two is that I think Triphala's certainly going to keep me 'regular' this month.0

no longer a fan of it..it acts like a mild laxative but it also seems to affect my blood pressure. Less than an hour after taking it I start to get dizzy spells.0

That's smart of you to recognize that about your blood pressure. Take care of yourself!!0
