Triphala Powder For Sure Weight Loss

by Sunita Verma
(Hyderabad, India)

I weighed 78 kgs at the time of delivery of my first baby. After delivery weight has come down to 75kgs, but for baby's healthy feeding I was on complete rich fatty diet and there was hardly any chance for weight loss then.


I was determined that let first six months pass, then I will strictly switch to yoga and control my diet and there I was with my yoga asanas and a wonderful solution for weight loss. I used to soak 2 spoons of triphala powder overnight in a glass of water and in the morning boiled it till it becomes half. Then I add lemon juice and a spoon of honey and have it on empty stomach followed by one hour yoga. Now 10 months are over and i weigh 59 kgs. I feel very good to see myself in my previous tops and jeans.

Try it, this is sure shot reason for your weight loss. But do control your diet especially rice and sweets. Use dalia instead of rice and sugar free instead of sugar.

Thanks Sunita for sharing your wonderful experience.

Dalia is a Hindi word for broken wheat. It is very high fiber content. Dalia is good for people wanting to lose weight as it contains complex carbohydrates, increases metabolism and helps to relieve constipation. Dalia can be cooked in milk and add sugar for taste. Or boil Dalia along with your favorite vegetables, add salt to taste and enjoy.

Hello, I am 25 years and my weight is 62 Kg. Before 2015 my weight was some where near 50 kg. But after I had gall bladder surgery (laparoscopic), every month I am gaining more and more weight. I am working so I don't get time to cook in the morning. So I eat very little during the day and heavy meal for dinner. Please suggest me what to take or do so as to get back to my same figure. Will triphala work even for me? How many time a day should I take it.?

Editors Note

Medhorvati while breastfeeding
by: Anonymous

Hi, I am 26 yrs old ( 82 kgs, 5.5") and I have a 5 months old baby. My baby is on both breastfeeding and formula right now. Next month he will start his solids but I still will be breastfeeding him probably twice or thrice a day. Kindly let me know if I can take medohar vati while breastfeeding my baby by next month. I really want to lose weight as I have started to get joints pain and therefore I am not able to do my regular walks. I heard medohar vati decreases pain and fat both. Please let me know if I can start it. If yes then what should be the dosage. Thank you so much. Please reply.

Editors Note
I cannot comment about usage of medohar vati. I suggest you practice strict diet control and start yoga and pranayama under guidance of an experienced teacher to improve your fitness. There is no alternative to healthy eating and regular exercise. You can contact me if you have any further queries.

triphala dosage
by: Pankaj

Hi. Thanks for sharing such an informative post. I have just bought organic triphala powder, and I dont know exactly how to consume it for weight loss. I gained few kilos due to hyperthyroidism , so is it advisable for me to take it ? Also, I plan on soaking 1tbsp of the powder in one glass of water, boil it in the morning, and then add 1tsp honey and lemon to it. Should I add honey and lemon after boiling or before boiling, and also for weight loss which option is better, powder in water with honey and lemon, or just powder in water , as honey adds few calories too.

Editors Note
Hello Pankaj. You boil it and then after it cools down to lukewarm temperature, filter the liquid, add honey and lime juice and drink it. Adding honey will also make it less bitter for beginners.

Hi,

I started taking triphala water from last two days, but now I feel that my body is swelling, gas is passing, I feel to go washroom but nothing comes out.(may be because I am following strict 1200 calorie diet).

I am also following strict diet and exercise routine(1-1.5 hrs daily). Without taking triphala I was able to loose 12 kg, then I came to weight loss plateau. So after search I started triphala water. But I feel like stomach upset. I usually take my last meal by 7.

Can you suggest what changes do I require for further weight loss.
Do triphala increases water retention in body.

Editors Note
Triphala may cause loose stools for 2-3 days initially. I suggest include sufficient fiber in your diet like more of salads and fruits. Drink plenty of water. Take ginger tea once or twice.

If still you feel uncomfortable with triphala discontinue its use.

Is Yoga Necessary?
by: Anonymous

Hi Daljit and Others,

I have started my weight loss program last week itself. Taking triphala with honey early in the morning with diet control.

1 Sandwich and milk or milk and cornflakes.
2. 2 roti, salad and veggies with curd
3. Early dinner with 1 chappti and bowl of vegetable
4. I glass of sugarless mangoshake at night (around 8-9 pm).
5. 2 cups of tea in between

I am working ( IT) with 2 little boys. Cant workout. Do you think ONLY Tripahala shall help?

Editors Note
Triphala along with diet control will definitely help but it is recommended to do at least 30 min of walking or other exercise as it will boost metabolism. Yoga also is most helpful but not mandatory condition for weight loss. Yoga will help to strengthen your body and will power also.
Meanwhile go ahead with triphala and diet control. You can include fresh fruits in breakfast, avoid bread or cornflakes. You can use Dalia instead.

All the best and warm regards

Firltering of Triphala Powder after boiling.

Hi.

It is very nice information. I want to ask two things.
1. Do we need to filter triphala powder after boiling in water or we can drink as it is?

2.Wouldn't it cause laxative effect during day if it is taken in morning?

1. If you can manage to drink without filtering it, you can do it.
2. Yes there will be laxative effect for first 2-3 days which can be a problem for working people. To overcome this shortcoming, start with triphala on a weekend or start with small dosage of half a teaspoon.

Weight loss for hypothyroidism

Hello

I am hypothyroidism female patient. I delivered baby boy a year ago. Now my baby is 13 months old. Since last one month I stopped breast feeding. My height is 5'3" and weight is 67. Hence I wanted to reduce my weight especially belly fat and thighs. Thus kindly suggest me which natural and ramdev baba ji products can I use. Seeking your soonest support. Now I am using medoharvati, triphala and amla juice.

Editors Note
I think using triphala along with diet control and exercise is sufficient to lose weight.

For hypothyroid patients
~ diet control has to be very strict
~ aim for gradual weight loss over 5-6 months
~ it is very difficult to lose weight without exercise and regular yoga
~ Long term changes are required to eating patterns and lifestyle so that weight once lost does not come back.

Dear Akanksha

Your diet looks to be minimal. You need to do more exercise, reduce stress and take adequate rest for relaxation.
1. Regarding diet, you can add more fruits and vegetables. Eat some fresh fruits or take fresh vegetable juice at around 8 A.M or 9 A.M.
2. You need more exercise to burn fats. Seek professional help for the exercise or yoga practice. Combination of walking/ jogging, asanas and pranayama is suggested.
3. Take triphala just after waking up in the morning before exercise.
You can contact me for any further advice.

Tripahala Use
by: Sneha

HI MAM,

My age is 31, weight is 70 Kg, height is 5.1". I have a 2.3 years son. I am still breastfeeding him but only in night. Can I take triphala as suggested by you in the morning? I am working lady and want to lose weight. Also suggest me some set of yoga asanas.

Thanks and regards.

Editors Note

Dear Sneha

Triphala is not recommended for lactating mothers as it is laxative and may create problems for the baby. As you are feeding only once and your baby is grown up, you can take triphala in the morning. In case you notice stomach upsets for your baby, stop triphala.

Hope it helps

Before yoga or after
by: Anonymous

Please let me know if Triphala should be had before yoga every morning.

Editors Note
Yes, you can have triphala on empty stomach, clear your bowels and thereafter do yoga.

If you cannot clear your bowels after taking triphala, it may create sudden urgency to pass stools. This problem is more likely to manifest initially for 3-4 days when you start taking triphala. A solution for this problem is to initially start with less dosage, say half spoon.

Hope it helps.

Weight loss
by: Anonymous

I am 28 years old (unmarried)
I am gaining weight due to my work of office sitting and no extra activities.

Please suggest when and in what proportion I should take Triphala powder (I prefer powder than capsules). In the morning with empty stomach or after breakfast or some other way?

Any other side effects as it is my first time.

Thanks.

Editors Note
The method of taking tripahala is given in the beginning of this webpage. Start with a dosage of one teaspoon per day. If taken in more quantity it can induce watery or loose stools, in that case reduce the dosage. There is no other side effects.
There is no substitute for regular exercise in order to lose weight. So do some exercise or at least walk for 45 minutes to one hour daily.

Aloe Vera and Triphala Juice

Hello,

I am 25 years old, 5'4" and 68 kgs. I am
IT professional and exercising is really not possible. I've been suffering from problems such as falling of hair, greying of hair, pimples and increase in weight.
Recently, I've been advised to use aloe vera and triphala juice. Since past 21 days I have been taking 2 teaspoons of juice once in morning and once before going to bed.

My question to you is:
1. Is it alright to take this juice? Or taking churan is more beneficial as described by you above. Which is better?
2. Also I am planning to take it with lukewarm water from now on. Is that OK
3. Can I use lemon juice with honey in this?
I want to bring down my weight to 55kgs. What will you suggest?

Thanks and regards

I suggest you take triphala churna as suggested along with lemon juice and honey instead of triphala juice. In addition you can take aloe vera juice also, once or twice a day.

Weight loss and hypothyrodism
by: neelu

Hi

I have been diagnosed as having hypothyroidism last week and doctor prescribed me to take thyronorm tablet. And I have PCOS also. Can I take triphala churna, lemon and honey immediately after taking thyronorm tablet for weight loss. Please advise me?

Editors Note

Hello Neelu,
As I understand, you must be taking your medicine on empty stomach and generally it is advised not to eat anything for around 30 minutes. I suggest you check with your doctor about taking the triphala churna immediately after taking thyronorm tablet.
For hypothyroid patients, very strict diet control is essential along with other efforts to lose weight.

Hope it helps

My weight is 62.5 kg and my height is 5.5 ft tall. I am 21 year old girl. I am talking triphala powder with warm water twice a day. Also lemon water and Amla juice too. I have lost 2-3 kgs in past 2 months. Can I lose more if I continue the same. I am a vegetarian and not really have a heavy diet.

Editors Note
Congratulations for losing weight and sharing your experience. Now you have experimented successfully with weight loss. Stay disciplined in eating and follow your regimen and you can lose more weight. Can you share if you did any exercises also to lose weight?

Your next aim should be to ensure that lost weight does not make a comeback. So, as a long term measure, focus on fitness, stay disciplined in eating and exercise regularly.

All the best.

Weight Loss
by: Ravi

Sir,

I had high level of TSH i.e. 12, after taking Thyronorm prescribed by Doctor my TSH level came down to 1.22. I am suffering from belly fat, presently I am weighing around 89 Kg and I am 49 years old. Through Baba Ramdevji's book for Aushada Darshan I started taking Triphala Churna overnight Soaked in water and boiling it to half and then adding 2 table spoon of Honey I took this for 4 days I started getting throat burning, belching and acute gas/acidic problem. Guru ji, please let me know how I can reduce my belly fat. Alternate days I do Exercise and every day I perform Pranayama too. Pl suggest appropriate medicine to reduce belly fat without any gastric/acidic problems. Regards.

Editors Note

What is your daily dosage of triphala? You can reduce your dosage of triphala and it may help. Along with triphala usage eat a nutritious and easy to digest diet.

To reduce weight, you need to reduce your calorie intake. First focus on exercise and diet. One common mistake is to binge in dinner. Eat light and early dinner, exclude all type of sweets, junk food and fried stuff. Once you lose some weight then you can focus on particular body parts. If you do yoga for six months and lose weight, your body will naturally get in shape. You can read about how to lose tummy fat.

by: Anonymous

I started taking trifala churan the same was as suggested in the post. I started from jan 2015 and within 40 days, I have lost 08 Kg. My hair growth has increased and skin texture and tone has improved.

I love the results.

Method: Soak 01 teaspoon churan in 01 glass water and leave it overnight. Boil the mixture and sieve it, just like tea. Add 1/2 lemon and 1 spoon honey. Drink it. Initially, the taste will not be felt good. But with passage of time, one gets adapted to it.

Try it for 01 month. You will notice the difference yourself.

Thanks.

Triphala for daily usage
by: Ashok Nalla

Hi,

I have been using Triphala from the past few years and it resolves my constipation problem.
After I wake up, I do mix 1.25 spoon of Triphala Powder in one glass of normal water and drink, after one hour, stomach cleaning happens.

Now the question is?
1. Is this the right approach of taking triphala mixed with one glass of water after wake up?
2. Or taking the triphala powder mixed with glass of water, one hour after dinner/before sleep?
3. Or soak the triphala powder in glass of water for whole night, then morning boil it for half and drink may be with lemon.

Another question is, Is it good to take triphala powder for life long or may be for some time only?
Does triphala powder intake with water for longer period, erase the layer of intestine?

Thanks for the great help.
Regards,
Ashok Nalla

Editors Note
You can take triphala in whatever form it suits you. For constipation, option 2 is recommended while specifically using triphala for weight loss option 3 is recommended.

I will recommend to take Triphala for only such time till your health is restored. Once you feel better gradually reduce the dosage and try to stay healthy with balanced diet and regular exercise.

Hope this helps.

Weight loss & trying to concieve
by: HQ

Thanx Daljit,

My thyroids reports are completely fine and other reports are also, and my case falls under unexplained infertility. However, the only apparent cause left is weight loss as per doctors, they say obesity may cause infertility so I am directed towards weight loss to increase chances of conceiving. Now guide me should I go for this triphala therapy or not?

In general please guide that till how many days/months one can continue this treatment, as I have read somewhere that any detoxification treatment should not continue for long time.

Editors Note

I agree with you that weight loss should be your primary focus area. Triphala therapy is good and you can try it for a month or so. But you aim for permanent weight loss by diet control, following a active lifestyle, doing walking and yoga. Start yoga gradually and increase the number of asanas and pranayama gradually in consultation with your yoga teacher. Once you attain your weight loss goals, you can tone down your yoga practice a bit and focus more on relaxation to achieve the desired result that is conception. Suryanamaskars are also effective for weight loss. For any further help you can contact me through the contact me form giving reference of instant query.

Dear Baljeet

Losing weight is a challenge for patients with under active thyroid. Thyroid patients can take Triphala churna for weight loss along with thyroid medication.

First thing after getting up in the morning, take your thyroid medicine. Take triphala churna about 30 minutes after taking thyroid medicine. Alternatively you can take triphala churna before sleeping at night.

How to Use Triphala Powder
by: Sunita

I prefer to use Triphala powder(churna) instead of Triphala Tablets. People suffering from knee or joints pains are recommended to take it without lemon. Taking triphala during breast feeding is not advisable. Overnight soaking and boiling it to half in morning and having is sufficient.

Hi my weight is 55 kg and I want to reduce it. I wanted to ask:

1. How to consume this churna for weight loss. Whether it is necessary to take it both in the morning and night.

2. Whether it is necessary to soak it at night and consume?

3. And if I won't prefer churna whether triphala pills provide the same results for weight loss. Please reply.

Need help!!
by: Anonymous

Hi,

My doctor advised me to have 1 teaspoon of Trifala powder and a glass of lukewarm water at bedtime for weight loss. I tried having it but did not like its taste. I just can have it. Could you please suggest me if we have any replacement of powder? May be something in tablet form. If it is there then from where can i get it?

Regards,
Tanu

Editors Note
I suggest do not care about the taste. Alternative is to try triphala tablets of Dabur, Zandu or any other brand. If you are in India contact your local pharmacy/ ayurvedic store.

Hope this helps.

How long will it take to loose weight?
by: Shivani

Hello

Can you please tell me that if I consume only triphala by soaking it in the night and by boiling it in the morning and taking it empty stomach then around how much weight will I loose in 2 months.


Editors Note

Hello Shivani

Weight loss will also depend on your activity levels and diet control. Do yoga for an hour, strictly avoid sugar and follow proper diet for weight loss. As a realistic target you can aim for gradual weight loss say one kg of weight loss per month. This way you can hope to lose upto 12 kg in a year. All the best..

1st trial
by: Laksmietha

Hi All,

I would like to share my experience on taking triphala. I have tried taking triphala for 2 weeks and followed proper diet and lost 1kg during this time. My method of taking is as follows :soak 2 tsp of triphala overnight and to reduce the amount to half and I add some lemon juice,honey,and ginger extract. It tastes better since I couldnt bare to take it on its original form. I have stopped taking it after 2 weeks because I was ill due to ashtma and I have some travelling plans till march.

My advise for all the sweet ladies who are determined to lose weight is to regulate physical excercise and you can see permanent result. With my two kids I have gained nearly 20kg from my original weight and I have tried hundred fad diet methods,starved but nothing worked until I start my work outs since jan 2012. I was 83 kg on last jan and 72 kg this jan 2013. I am happy with the result but I want to achieve another 10 kg this year. It is slow process for some people like me but dont give up.


Editors Note
Thanks Laksmietha for sharing your inspiring story. I am sure you will achieve your weight loss and fitness goals. Weight loss depends on a persons will power or resolve to lose weight. Next step is to find a healthy way to lose weight by eating sensibly. There is no magic, you only have to create it!!

Triphala is available at any Dispensory of Patanjali run by Swami Ramdev, well known guru of yoga and Ayurveda.

Here are some clarifications..

2. Sould be preferably consumed in mornings only in empty stomach.
3. 2 table spoon is enough while soaking it overnight..

For any further clarification can catch me by mailing me at .....

Weight loss, hair fall, reduce my wrinkles
by: sonu

Trilhala is very good for me because I saw my face in mirror my skin was very dull wrinkly. After I used triphala my wrinkles have gone and it is very good for my hair fall. I have used lots of shampoos to stop hair fall but it doesn't work. But triphala is great. Now I am taking this powder every morning with luke warm water to lose my weight. The taste is very bitter. Over all I like it and prefer to all (other things).

Seeking advise
by: Laksmitha

Hello

Thanks for the post and the tips. I have just bought a botle of Triphala Churna for the weight loss purpose and yet to started. Would appreciate if you can clear the below doubts which can be really helpfull for me.

1. How many times in a day that I should be taking it?

2. What is the duration that I should be taking triphala?

3. Will there be any heavy bowel movement when you taking triphala?

Editors Note
1. It is generally recommended to take triphala powder once a day preferably at night before sleeping. Or you can try the way suggested by Sunita.

2. You can take triphala for a duration as long as you want as it has no side effect. Gradually you can reduce the dosage or take it alternate days.

3. Heavy bowel movement is not expected with Triphala.

You must also have a well balanced diet with high fiber content, drink lot of water, sleep well and do regular exercise also.

All the best.

Where to buy Triphala?
by: lakshmi

Hi, can any one suggest me where I can buy triphala powder. I am a mother of 6 month baby and I want to reduce my weight as well as my tummy as I had my c-section. or please email me at sowjany..@...
(To prevent misuse, visitor emails are not published)

Editors Note

Hello Sowjanya

1. I guess you are from India. In India, you can buy triphala at any of the ayurvedic shops. Even allopathic stores do stock triphala.

2. I suggest it is better to use triphala churna (powder), try triphala churna(powder) of Dabur. You can take it as suggested by Sunita in her post. Otherwise you can take a glass of warm milk (or warm water if you want to avoid milk), add two table spoon of triphala churna and one tea spoon of honey (or sugar). Mix it well and drink before breakfast or before going to bed.

3. If you do not like the powder, there is an alternative. For example there are triphala tablets made by Zandu or tripahala capsules by Himalaya.

4. Alternatively, you can buy it online.

Hope this helps.

Triphala Use For Weight Reduction
by: SUNITA

Hi Shelly,

Since your baby is just six months old...give at least two or three months gap and then start with Triphala.. Basically Triphala is an ayurvedic supplement for getting rid of constipation..Well you may surely come back to your previous shape..But for that I recommend you to go to and purchase a CD meant for obesity and how to get rid of it with the use of Triphala..You follow the diet chart with dedication and do asanas two times in a day.

Regards..

weight loss
by: shelly

Thanks Sunita,

I also had a wonderful baby almost six months ago and after delivery I had lost weight but now again I have gained back the lost kilos by eating a highly rich diet to give good nourishment to my baby.These days I am going through thoughts of whether I'll be able to fit into my old clothes.

By reading your column I think I"ll be able to but I have a question in mind would it be safe to take this concoction while breastfeeding? If anyone knows please answer because I am really desperate to lose weight but without harming my baby.
