Amla: India's Traditional Superfruit and How to Enjoy It

Amla, also known as Indian gooseberry, is one of the most celebrated fruits in traditional Indian food culture. Sour, tangy and bright green, it has been eaten fresh, pickled, dried and juiced for centuries.

Why amla is so popular

Amla is a rich source of vitamin C, which contributes to the normal function of the immune system as part of a balanced diet. It is also valued in traditional Indian wellness routines and is a familiar ingredient in many Indian households.

Ways to enjoy amla

  • Amla juice: the easiest daily option. Our Immunex Amla Juice is made with selected amla and cold-processed to help retain its goodness.
  • Fresh amla: sliced with a pinch of salt during winter, when the fruit is in season.
  • In chutneys and pickles: a traditional way to preserve the fruit through the year.

Tips for amla juice

  • Mix your serving with water, as amla has a strong, sour taste.
  • Follow the serving size on the label.
  • Store the bottle as directed on the packaging after opening.

A quick note

Amla juice is a food product meant to complement a healthy lifestyle. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Speak to a healthcare professional if you have specific dietary or health concerns.
