Food Remedies
Main remedy
Amla (myrobalan): its succinic acid holds off aging and helps rebuild worn cells. Mix mishri and ghee into amla juice, or take a spoon of dried amla powder with water daily, for glow and renewed vigour.
One fresh amla, or 1 tsp amla powder in cool water, once daily — best in the morning, never with milk.
