Amla - the Vitamin C champion
Indian gooseberry is one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin C, and uniquely, that Vitamin C stays stable even after drying. Ayurveda lists Amla as a Tridoshic Rasayana - balancing for all body types.
Haldi - the golden anti-inflammatory
Curcumin in turmeric is one of the most studied natural compounds for inflammation and antioxidant support. Himalayan turmeric is prized for its deeper colour and higher curcumin content. Always pair with black pepper.
Cinnamon - the metabolism spice
Cinnamaldehyde, the active compound in Dalchini, is associated with healthy glucose metabolism and adds natural sweetness that helps reduce sugar cravings.
Simple daily protocol
- Morning: 1 tsp Amla Powder in warm water with honey
- Evening: Golden latte with 1/2 tsp Haldi, a pinch of Cinnamon and black pepper
- Anytime: Sprinkle Cinnamon over oats, fruit or tea
- Seasonal change: Continue for 6-8 weeks during monsoon and winter
