Amla-C

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Amla?
Amla, also known as Amalaki or Indian Gooseberry, is known for its ability to rejuvenate the body or enable the body’s maximum potential, consistent with its classification as a “rasayana” herb in the Ayurvedic tradition. According to Ayurveda, Amla may be used as a rasayana (rejuvenative) to promote longevity and has traditionally been used to support digestion, heart health, healthy vision, hair growth, and enliven the body. Its antioxidant properties help fight free radical damage and support healthy aging.

What are the active ingredients in Amla Gold™?
Amla is naturally rich in Tannins and Vitamin C, both of which are powerful antioxidants that provide protection from free radical damage and help support healthy aging.

Does Amla Gold™ contain anything other than the active ingredient?
In addition to the active ingredient, each vegetarian capsule of the Amla Gold™ product contains a small amount of non-GMO, gluten-free Rice Concentrate. Because the nature of herbal extracts can vary from batch to batch in terms of consistency, moisture (or stickiness), and particle size, Rice Flour is sometimes added during manufacturing to ensure product integrity without compromising product safety or effectiveness.

Is Amla Gold™ free of allergens and GMOs?
Amla Gold™ is certified free of wheat, peanut, soy, shellfish, egg, and milk by an independent, third-party lab. The current formulation of Amla Gold™ is pending non-GMO certification by the Non-GMO Project™.

Is Amla Gold™ suitable for Vegans / Vegetarians?
Amla Gold™ does not contain any animal-derived ingredients and is, therefore, suitable for both vegans and vegetarians.

How long do I have to take Amla Gold™ before I see any benefits?
Unlike OTC and prescription drugs that provide instant, temporary, symptomatic relief, herbal supplements provide progressive, long-term benefits by strengthening and supporting the body's natural defenses. Most herbal supplements, including Amla Gold™, need to be taken for at least 6 to 8 weeks before the benefits of taking the supplement can be experienced. Please be advised that nutritional supplements work best when they are taken as part of a health maintenance program that includes a sensible diet rich in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, a moderate exercise program, and the necessary lifestyle changes to support wellness.

Is Amla Gold™ suitable for individuals with a medical condition?
Individuals with a known or suspected medical condition should always talk to a licensed medical professional before beginning any form of supplementation. It is never advisable to self-diagnose or self-treat a medical condition.

What are the side effects and/or contraindications, if any, associated with Amla Gold™?
Amla Gold™ does not have any known side effects or interactions and is generally well-tolerated by most individuals. However, it is always recommended to consult your healthcare provider before taking any supplements if you are pregnant, lactating, and/or taking any OTC or prescription medications for a health condition.

Is Amla Gold™ safe for long-term use?
Amla Gold™ should be safe for both short-term and long-term use when used as directed and under the guidance of an experienced herbalist or other healthcare provider.
