Amla has contains significantly high amounts of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), upwards of 3.25% in the dried fruit, equal to 32.5 mg per gram. Amalaki also contains a high concentration of amino acids, trace minerals and other beneficial phytonutrients. Amalaki contains the potent phenolic combination of ellagic acid, gallic acid, and emblicanin A+B. Together, these polyphenols are important for reducing cellular and oxidative stress, destroying immune-damaging free-radicals, and supporting the overall detoxification of the body.

The fruit is also host to rare ‘mighty- molecules’ known as ascorbagins. Part of the tannin family, ascorbagins create a protective bond around the Vitamin C molecules, making amalaki’s source of Vitamin C more bio-available and bio-stable than synthetic varieties. The Zrii amlaki juice brings you the benefits of all these ingredients in a natural and healthy manner

Indigestion or dyspepsia

- By: Sulamita Berrezi, 2008-02-24

Indigestion or dyspepsia is one of the most common ailments today and is caused by dieteticerrors. It is a condition of the stomach in which digestive juices are incorrectly secreted, resulting in discomfort.


The alimentary canal and the process of digestion begin at the mouth. The stomach, which is the
most abused organ of the body, looks like a pear-shaped pouch. It forms part of the digestive
tract which is a tube coiled in loops nearly 28 feet in length. It varies in size and position
depending on how much food it contains. An overloaded stomach tends to prevent the
diaphragm from functioning properly. It may also press on the heart.


Symptoms


Abdominal pain, a feeling of undue fullness after eating, heartburn, loss of appetite , nausea or
vomiting and excessive wind or gas are the usual symptoms of indigestion. Other symptoms
include a bad taste in the mouth, coated tongue, foul breath and pain in the upper abdomen.


Causes


The feelings of discomfort and distress in the abdomen are often caused by overeating, eating
too rapidly or not chewing properly. Overeating or eating frequently produces a feverish state in
the system and overtaxes the digestive organs. It produces excessive acid and causes the
gastric mucus membrane to become congested. Hyperacidity is usually the result. Overeating
makes the work of stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels harder. When this food putrifies, its
poisons are absorbed back into the blood and consequently, the whole system is poisoned.
Many people gulp their food due to stress or hurry. When food is swallowed in large chunks, the
stomach has to work harder and more hydrocholoride is secreted. Eating too fast also causes
one to swallow air. These bad habits force some of the digestive fluids into the esophagus,
causing burning , a stinging sensation or a sour taste, giving an illusion of stomach acid.
Certain foods, especially if they are not properly cooked, cause indigestion. Some people react
unfavourable to certain foods like beans, cabbage, onions, cucumber, radishes and seafood.
Fried foods as well as rich and spicy foods often cause abdominal discomfort and gas, and
aggravate the existing condition. Excessive smoking and intake of alcohol can also cause
stomach upsets. Constipation may interfere with the normal flow of ingested matter through the
gastro-intestinal tract, resulting in gas and abdominal pain. Drinking too much water with meals,
insomnia, emotions such as jealousy, fear and anger and lack of exercise are among the other
causes of indigestion.


The Cure


The only effective treatment for indigestion is a thorough cleansing of the digestive tract;
adoption of a sensible diet and a change in the style of living. The best way to commence the
treatment is to adopt an all-fruit diet for about five days. After the all-fruit diet, the patient may
take to a restricted diet of easily digestible foods, consisting of lightly cooked vegetables, juicy
fruits and buttermilk for about 10 days. He may thereafter gradually embark upon a
well-balanced diet.


The use of fruits in general is beneficial in the treatment of indigestion. They flush out the
undigested food reside and accumulated faeces and re-establish health to perfect order. Being
rich in water, they clean body mechanisms thoroughly. The best among the fruits in dyspepsia is
lemon. Its juice reaches the stomach and attacks the bacteria, inhabiting the formation of acids.
Lemon juice removes indigestion by dislodging this acid and other harmful substances from the
stomach, thereby strengthening and prompting a healthy appetite.


The orange is another effective food remedy in chronic indigestion. It gives rest to the digestive
organs and supplies nutrition in a most easily assimilable form. It also stimulates the flow of
digestive juices thereby improving digestion and increasing appetite. It creates suitable
conditions for the development of friendly bacteria in the intestines.


Another fruit useful in indigestion is grapes. They are a light food which removes indigestion and
irritation of the stomach in a short time and relieves heat. Pineapple is also valuable. It acts as a
tonic in dyspepsia and relieves much of the digestives disorders of dyspeptics. Half a glass of
pineapple juice should be taken after a meal in this condition.


The sufferer from indigestion must always follow the under-mentioned rules regarding eating :
Never eat and drink together. Water or other liquids should be taken half an hour before
and one hour after a meal. Milk, buttermilk and vegetables soups are, however, foods and
can be taken with meals.
i.
Never hurry through a meal. Eat very slowly and chew your food as thoroughly as
possible.
ii.
iii. Never eat to a full stomach. Always leave the table with a feeling that you could eat more.
Never sit down to a meal, feeling worried, tired, excited or in a bad temper as such
feelings temporarily paralyze the manufacture of digestive juices including hydrochloride.
iv.
Do not eat if appetite is lacking. Miss a meal or two, if necessary, until real appetite
returns.
v.
vi. Never boil vegetables, always steam them.


Do not mix too many foods at the same meal. Never eat raw vegetables and raw fruits
together as they require a different set of enzymes. Take protein and starchy foods
separate as far as possible.
vii.


Yogic asanas such as ardh-matsyasana, srvangasana, uttanpadasana, pavnmuktasana,
vajrasana, yogamudra, bhujangasana, shalabhasana, and shavasana, kriyas like jalneti and
kunjal, and pranayamas like kapalbhati, anuloma-viloma, and ujjai are highly beneficial in the
treatment of indigestion. Light exercises such as walking, golf and swimming also help digestion.


Water Treatment


A daily enema should be administered to cleanse toxic bowel waste. Other beneficial water
treatments include wet girdle pack applied at night, application of ice bags over the stomach half
an hour after meals, a daily cold friction bath and alternate hot and cold hip baths at night.
Massaging of the abdomen also helps.
