Re: Triphala

Hi - I'm new. I'm having BIG problem with constipation too. I found this information on the Whole Foods website - just thought i'd share:

"Constituents: triphala is a combination of the three nutritive fruits, beleric, chebulic and emblic myrobalans


Properties: mild-acting internal cleansing; supports liver and gastrointestinal function *

Precautions: contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation; avoid during menstruation; not appropriate for the very young or very old or the convalescent"


It was the "not during menstruation" part that got me... I wonder why?
