Nutritionist Says Amla Is Good For Hair Health, Shares Different Ways To Add The Fruit To Your Diet

Indians do not just use fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices for cooking; they also use them to treat various diseases. One such powerful fruit is Amla, also known as the Indian gooseberry. This nutritional powerhouse is rich in antioxidants like gallic acid, ascorbic acid, and phenolic compounds. Amla is well-known for strengthening the immune system and aiding digestion. While its sour taste can be off-putting for some, nutritionist Lovneet Batra shares tips on how to incorporate Amla into your diet without compromising on taste. In an Instagram post, she also highlights Amla's benefits for hair health. Lovneet has uploaded a picture of a bowl full of Amla, with notes describing its hair benefits: "Nourishment: Strengthens follicles, Vitamin C: Boosts collagen, Antioxidants: Prevents graying. Stronger, shinier hair with Amla!"

The nutritionist has described different ways of consuming amla in her caption. She writes, "Amla (Indian Gooseberry) is a superfood for hair health, revered in Ayurveda for its multiple benefits. — Ways to Add Amla to Your Diet: Amla Juice: Drink fresh amla juice daily for a vitamin C boost. Add a bit of honey to balance the sour taste. Amla Powder: Mix amla powder with water to make a paste and use it as a hair mask. Alternatively, add the powder to smoothies or yogurt."

Loveneet also suggests that amla can also be enjoyed as a pickle. It adds a tangy taste to your meal as a side dish.
