Amla fruit benefits
This fruit is known as the Indian gooseberry can be eaten raw but normally is found in a powder form. This is the most bitter thing I have ever tasted. Bitterness is where the health is at especially for a microbiome. And in 2012 it was shown to lower cholesterol like cholesterol medication. Great for regulating triglycerides, LDL and HDL.
This has been the highest antioxidant rating out of all the berries doubling acai. In third place when it comes to vitamin C behind acerola cherries and rose hips.
It also containing in antioxidants which help reduce free radicals. Free radicals are a natural part of cell metabolism. But too many of them cause oxidative stress which is damaging. Anytime there is free radicals there is some form of inflammation. Think of free radicals as fire🔥 antioxidants as water 💦.
Vitamin C only stays in the body for 24 hours. Since it has vitamin C it will help build collagen, skin health, immune system etc. But smoking anything, alcohol, stress, sugar, ultra processed foods, high blood sugar /insulin / blood pressure etc depletes it even faster. This is why constantly consuming this vitamin c should be consumed throughout the day. Excess vitamin C will get excreted out of the body.
Anytime vitamin c is mentioned so should iron. There are two forms of iron, non heme and heme. Most individuals know about heme iron that comes from meat. But a deeper look only 40 to 45% of the iron in meat is heme iron and 55 to 60% is non heme iron. But out of that 40 to 45% only 15 to 35% are bioavailable or easily absorbed. Vitamin C will help with the absorption of non heme. So, if a person has anemia instead of worrying about getting more iron and they should focus on get some more vitamin c.
This food is also good for digestion, indigestion, constipation, probiotic etc. in a four-week study it was showing to help with gastroesophageal reflux disease GERD. At the same time promoting weight loss and hair growth. Helps improve endothelial cell functions. They line all blood vessels and regulations change between the bloodstream that's around your tissue.
