Bhumi Amalaki

Ayurvedic Liver & Digestive Support

Bhumi Amalaki (Phyllanthus niruri), also known as “Stonebreaker” or “Tamalki,” is a powerful Ayurvedic herb traditionally used to support liver health, detoxification, and overall digestive wellness. The powder is prepared from the whole plant and has a bitter, slightly astringent taste.

In Ayurveda, Bhumi Amalaki is highly valued for its Pitta-pacifying and detoxifying properties. It is especially known to support the liver and gallbladder, promote bile flow, and aid in clearing excess heat and toxins from the body.

• Supports liver detox and function

• Aids in healthy digestion and bowel regularity

• Promotes clear skin by purifying the blood

• Helps manage Pitta-related imbalances like acidity, inflammation, and skin issues

• Useful in managing urinary tract health and gallbladder balance

Bhumi Amalaki is particularly recommended for individuals with excess Pitta symptoms such as hyperacidity, liver congestion, skin eruptions, or inflammation.
