What are the benefits of drinking amla and aloevera juice daily for overall health? - #21863

Anonymous

I am really curious about amla and aloevera juice and its effects on health. So, a little backstory, I've been feeling kinda sluggish and tired lately, and my skin has been looking flaky. My friend suggested I try amla and aloevera juice because she swears by it! I've heard about the benefits before, like how amla is packed with vitamin C and can help boost immunity while aloevera is great for hydration? I mean, that sounds amazing! As a kid, my grandma used to say that amla is like, a miracle fruit, you know? She would always make us drink amla juice when we were sick, and I guess I just wanna believe in that magic again! But I really don’t know how they work together. I saw some posts online talking about how amla and aloevera juice can aid digestion and improve skin health, but I have so many questions. First off, how often should I be drinking amla and aloevera juice to actually see results? Like, is it one cup a day, or can I go overboard? I love the taste of it, but what if I drink too much? Are there any side effects? Also, I read somewhere that combining amla and aloevera juice is good for detoxifying the body, which I could really use right now. Do you think it can really help with that? And if anyone's had experiences with amla and aloevera juice, I’d love to hear how it made you feel! Did it really work for you?? I’m just kinda eager to try this out and hoping it helps me feel fresh and energized again. Any advice on how to prepare it at home would also be super helpful, cause i’m not great in the kitchen. Thanks in advance!!

Doctors’ responses

Thank you for sharing your story — I can truly feel how much you’re longing for that sense of energy, radiance, and the simple healing your grandmother once gave you. And you’re absolutely right — both Amla and Aloe Vera have a beautiful place in Ayurveda, and when used wisely, they can offer powerful support for your health. Amla, also known as Amalaki, is considered a Rasayana in Ayurveda — which means it rejuvenates, strengthens, and nourishes all the tissues. It’s incredibly rich in vitamin C, supports the immune system, improves digestion, enhances hair and skin health, and helps balance all three doshas, especially Pitta. No wonder your grandma called it a miracle fruit! Aloe Vera (Kumari) is equally loved in Ayurveda for its cooling, soothing, and cleansing qualities. It helps hydrate the body, supports liver function, regulates bowel movements, and is especially supportive for skin, hormones, and digestion — making it wonderful for someone feeling sluggish, flaky, or just a little out of sync. When used together, Amla and Aloe Vera create a gentle yet powerful daily tonic — cooling, detoxifying, and rejuvenating. So yes, your friend is on to something, and your instincts to return to natural remedies are in alignment with Ayurvedic principles. Now, how often to take it? For most people, one small cup (about 20–30 ml each of amla and aloe vera juice, mixed with an equal amount of water) on an empty stomach in the morning is enough to feel the benefits over time. You don’t need to go overboard — more is not always better, especially if your digestion is a bit sensitive. Too much amla can sometimes cause dryness or acidity in people with strong Vata or Pitta imbalances, and aloe vera, if taken in excess, can lead to loose stools or a cooling overload. So starting with small, consistent doses is key. Always listen to your body. As for detox — yes, this combo is a gentle daily detoxifier. It helps the liver, improves metabolism, clears ama (toxins), and supports clear skin and a lighter mood. You may start feeling more refreshed and “clear-headed” after 2–3 weeks of regular use. If you want to make it at home, just peel and blend fresh aloe vera gel with fresh or powdered amla or pure bottled juice. Strain it, dilute with water, and sip slowly. Or you can buy good-quality organic juice from a trusted Ayurvedic brand if fresh prep isn’t easy for you. I’m so glad you’re turning toward nature — it’s never too late to reconnect with that quiet, powerful healing. And yes, it really can help you feel energized again.
