How much Vitamin C is in Amla? They used to call their product “Amla C,” but when evidence became clear that Vitamin C was being misidentified by coeluting mucic acids, they changed their product name from “Amla C” to simply “Amla.” Until further studies either bear it out or help understand Amla’s ascorbic acid content better, they have distanced themselves from marketing their Amla as a measurable source of Vitamin C and prefer to just present it for its use as an antioxidant. It’s not that it doesn’t contain any Vitamin C. It’s just that it’s very hard to measure it by contemporary standards. The directions say to take it before food. What kind of food? A snack? A whole meal? Either. Whatever you’d like. A full meal or a snack is fine. How long before eating should I take it? 20 minutes is a good rule of thumb. Can I take more or less than the dose on the bottle? They can only recommend the dose on the bottle, which is their clinically-studied effective dose. Taking more or less of an herbal supplement than recommended should be discussed with your health care provider. Can I take this product along with my prescription medication or my other supplements? Can I combine them? Will there be side effects? Their product has not been studied alongside or against your prescription medication or alongside other supplements. They would be unable to answer that question. Please make sure your health care provider is aware of all the herbal supplements you are taking. Can I take this product if I have a specific disease, illness or condition? Regulations enacted by the United States Food and Drug Administration say that sellers of dietary supplements can’t make any claims about their products that suggest the treatment, diagnosis, prevention, or mitigation of disease. This is called the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994. Because your question suggests you are trying to treat a condition and find relief from symptoms, any answer to that regard would fall outside of the legal boundaries that regulate their industry. What they can say is that their products are formulated to support the normal function of organ systems and are rigorously studied for purity, safety and efficacy. Can this product be taken when pregnant or nursing? They don’t recommend any herbal product to pregnant or nursing moms. If you’re pregnant or nursing, any supplement you take should first be cleared with your health care provider. About Himalaya Herbal Healthcare From Humble Beginnings While riding through the forests of Burma, their founder, Mr. M. Manal, saw a villager pacify a restless elephant by feeding it the root of the plant Rauwolfia serpentina. Fascinated by the plant's effect on the elephant, he returned home to India to seek scientific evidence for why this particular plant would have such a beneficial, calming effect. Young Manal's mother gave him her bangles to sell so he could pursue his work, and Himalaya was born. Once he fully understood the science behind this special botanical, Mr. Manal bought a hand-operated, tablet-compressing machine and began his work. At night, his shoulders would ache from producing a few hundred tablets, one small tablet at a time. But his hard work paid off.
