Triphala: keeping the three fruit names clear
Triphala is a useful example when discussing traditional Ayurvedic formulas with Indian readers. The name refers to three fruits: amla (Emblica officinalis), haritaki or harad (Terminalia chebula) and bibhitaki or baheda (Terminalia bellirica).<div>
</div><div>A small tip for reading an ingredient list: keep the Hindi and botanical names beside each other. Harad and baheda are easy to mix up when a label uses only English transliterations. The Alveda Triphala formula page gives more detail on the composition: https://ask-ayurveda.com/store/4010250-alveda-triphala . This is a note on ingredients and traditional terminology, not a recommendation on dosage.</div>
