Product Description
Vernacular Names & Parts Used
Bal Harad Powder is prepared from the dried fruits of Haritaki, botanically known as Terminalia Chebula. It is commonly known as Bal Harad and Kali Harad in Hindi, Haritaki and Chetaki in Sanskrit, Black Myrobalan in English, and Himej in regional Indian languages. The fully matured dried fruits, powdered in controlled conditions, are the primary part used for Ayurvedic and herbal formulations.
Ayurvedic Properties & Common Uses
In Ayurveda, Haritaki is revered as a Rasayana herb and is known for its Tridosha-balancing properties, with a special action on Vata regulation. It exhibits Laghu (light), Ruksha (dry) guna, Ushna virya, and predominantly Kashaya rasa, along with all tastes except salt.
Bal Harad Powder is traditionally used to support digestive fire (Agni), bowel regularity, detoxification, gut cleansing, and nutrient absorption. It is a key ingredient in Triphala Churna and is widely used in Churna, Kwath, and classical compound formulations. Ayurvedic texts describe its role in removing Ama (toxins), supporting metabolism, and promoting long-term digestive wellness, with dosage and usage guided by formulation type and practitioner expertise.
