Traditional Ayurvedic Uses

• Bibhitaki primarily supports the healthy formation of three bodily tissues -- nutrient plasma (Rasa Dhatu), muscle (Mamsa Dhatu) and bone (Asthi Dhatu).
  
• It is most commonly seen along with Amalaki and Haritaki as an ingredient in the popular Ayurvedic formula known as Digest Tone , which aids digestion and nourishes all the bodily tissues (the Dhatus). Triphala also helps scrub the colon, and supports the action of other ingredients in any well-balanced formula.
