What Is Bibhitaki Called in Malayalam? - #11826
I recently started learning about Triphala, which contains Bibhitaki, but I couldn’t find the exact Malayalam name of Bibhitaki. Can someone tell me what Bibhitaki is called in Malayalam, and how it is used in Kerala’s Ayurvedic medicine? From what I have read, Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica) is one of the three powerful herbs in Triphala, and it is known for its benefits in digestion, respiratory health, and detoxification. In Malayalam-speaking regions, is it commonly used for treating cough, cold, and lung problems? I also read that Bibhitaki is beneficial for digestion and helps with constipation, bloating, and gut health. Many people recommend taking it as part of Triphala Churna for regular bowel movements. Has anyone tried this, and does Bibhitaki work better alone or as part of Triphala? Another thing I want to understand is its role in detoxification and weight loss. Some Ayurvedic practitioners say that Bibhitaki helps remove excess fat and toxins from the body. Is it commonly used in Kerala’s Ayurvedic medicine for weight management, and how should it be taken for the best results? I also read that Bibhitaki is good for diabetes and cholesterol control. Since it is known to regulate metabolism and blood sugar, can it be safely consumed by people with diabetes? Is it available in Malayalam herbal medicine shops in powder or capsule form? Lastly, are there any side effects or precautions while consuming Bibhitaki? Some sources mention that it should not be taken in excess. What is the right dosage for daily consumption without causing any issues? If anyone knows the Malayalam name of Bibhitaki and how it is used in Malayalam traditional medicine, please share your insights! I’d love to know its best uses and benefits.
