Himalaya Amla is a pure herb extract. Amla or Amalaki contains the highest natural source of Vitamin C and cytokine like substances identified as zeatin, z. riboside, z. nucleotide. Amla also has naturally occurring bioflavonoids. It is believed that what gold is to the minerals, amla is to the herbs and is the most widely used herb in the ayurvedic system of medicine.
Amla contains 720 mg of Vitamin C for every 100g of fresh pulp or up to 900 mg of Vitamin C for every 100g of pressed juice (of a heat-stable form which does not lose its value through processing.) Since Amla also contains tannins, the dried form retains most of the vitamin content. Amla's powerful antioxidant properties were first discovered in 1936. Biochem J. 1936 Jun;30(6):1014-20.

Amla in Ayurveda:
The Indian Gooseberry has been given a very important place in Ayurveda. In ancient India it was believed that Amrit/ Ambrosia (heavenly nectar) contained all rasas thereby, it could impart immortality. In that sense Amalaki and Hareetaki stand next to Amrit since they exhibit five rasas. In Ayurveda, the amla fruit by itself is considered a rasayana for pitta.
It has been mentioned in the Charaka Samhita that Of all the rasayanas (ayurvedic formulations revered for their positive influence on the physiology) Amalaki is considered one of the most potent and nourishing. The Charaka Samhita says, "Amalaki is the best among rejuvenative herbs."
Charaka specifically mentioned that it is a great rasayana that helps protect people from disease and keeps away the manifestations of premature ageing. .
