Amalaki Review

What You Should Know

Amalaki by Banyan Botanicals is a supplement that detoxifies the body. The key ingredient is the small fruit Amalaki. It is an ayurvedic herb and an alternative medicine from India. Thousands of herbs are used for medicinal and spiritual purposes in the ayurvedic tradition. The herb is used to assist digestion and is known in India as the great rejuvenator. This formula comes from a philosophical tradition of wellness. All the ingredients are natural, and react to “Dosha”: three things that change in our bodies.

List of Ingredients

Amaliki, stearic acid (from vegetable oil), rice maltodextrin, modified food starch, silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate (from vegetable oil). Contains no animal products and is suitable for vegetarians.

Product Features

Amalaki is considered one of the most important and potent herbs in the Ayurvedic tradition. Ayurvedic doctors recommend taking Amalaki in response to heat or “pitta” in the digestive system caused by ulcers, heartburn, colitis, gastritis, or acid reflux. There are claims that the herb acts as a natural coolant in the body, a strong detoxifier, and red blood cell producer. Most Ayurvedic doctors also recommend the herb to regenerate lean body mass which if true could be very beneficial in weight loss program that involves exercise.

Advantages

  • Contains amino acids that can build muscle.
  • Contains antioxidants.
  • Can function as a laxative.
  • USDA Certified organic.

Disadvantages

  • This product is not FDA approved.
  • Can cause diarrhea.
  • Does not produce a fat burning effect.

Conclusion

Ayurvedic supplements are practically non-existent in the American weight loss supplement market. Products like Amalaki are normally combined with other herbs and supplements in order to balance the bodies “doshas” or well-being. For example Triphala is taken to treat constipation and Amalaki is taken to counter the heartburn that one can experience from Triphala. For someone not used to taking herbs this product can cause diarrhea. Also, claims that ayurvedic medicine produces health benefits are not backed by clinical studies. This product is not recommended for someone looking to lose weight.

Top Choice for 2009: Avesil

Avesil is clearly the most promising weight control formula we know of on the market. After looking at hundreds of different purported weight loss supplements, Avesil was the most rigorously researched one that we could find. The foundation behind the Avesil formula was an original scientific research study that incorporated an incredible 284 previously published peer-reviewed clinical studies, many conducted in university research labs. All of the product claims made about Avesil are substantiated by this large volume of research.

Unlike many fad weight loss ingredients (hoodia, acai berry, etc.) which are at best supported by folklore and at worst by pop culture, Avesil is totally rooted in disciplined scientific study. In fact, two research trials conducted on human subjects, later published in highly respected scientific journals, concluded that the primary ingredients in Avesil resulted in an average weight loss of more than 3 times that of a healthy diet and exercise alone.

Customers will notice that the claims made about Avesil are quite reasonable and not the least far-fetched. Simply put, Avesil is a safe, healthy way to promote a significant increase in weight loss when taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. In today's market there is a shamefully high number of consumers who have been deceived by outrageous "no work" promises, manufactured customer testimonials and bogus before/after pictures used by so many marketers of weight loss supplements. Avesil promises to deliver healthy, reasonable, and significant weight loss benefits - all offered through the process of a risk-free trial, leaving customers with very little to lose (other than weight).
