Native to South America and the Windward Islands of the Caribbean, this remarkable plant has been cultivated and used as food for thousands of years in the Amazon.

Essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated; they include both omega-3s and omega-6s. This oil contains one of the primary forms of omega-3s called ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), found in plants. The other two forms are called DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) which are mainly found in oily fish and shellfish. Specifically, it is DHA and EFA which are associated with so many health benefits. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemember that all polyunsaturated fats, including omega-3 are very sensitive to light and heat, making them highly unstable and prone to rancidity.

They are Vata, which governs movement, Pitta which governs heat and temperature, and Kapha which governs structure. Together, the three are known as Tridosha. Good health is a natural result of a balance between these three doshas. The effect of Amalaki on the Tridosha is to balance all three. For example, its sour taste calms and balances Vata, its cooling, sweetish taste soothes aggravated Pitta, and its dryness and astringent taste relieves the heavy quality of Kapha.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDose Recommendation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is recommended to take 25-30 grams of the edible fruit, or about an ounce.
