Terminalia chebula – 10:1 concentrate
Terminalia chebula, widely known as Haritaki, is called the “King of Medicines” in Ayurveda for its broad therapeutic value. Used for thousands of years across India, Tibet, and Southeast Asia, it is revered for supporting joint comfort, digestive balance, and cognitive health. Modern research confirms its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and adaptogenic qualities, making it a powerful herbal ally for resilience, clarity, and long-term vitality. Collected in the Vindhya mountain region, it is valued for its healing and rejuvenating powers.
Therapeutic uses include strengthening and nourishing the joint tissues and supporting the proper function of the colon, lungs, liver, and spleen. Highly revered in India, it is believed to increase energy, intelligence, and awareness.
In addition, Haritaki is included as one of five herbal extracts in BrainStorm Brain Health Support Kits. (The other extracts are Bilberry, Cistanche, Polygala, and Semen cuscutae.)
Further, Haritaki is included as one of four herbal extracts in GUTSY Digestive Health Support Kits. (The other extracts are Cistanche, Phyllanthus niruri, and Rosa rugosa.)

Haritaki Health Benefits
Joint Health
Haritaki contains potent anti-inflammatory compounds that help ease joint stiffness, reduce swelling, and support mobility. Its ability to regulate inflammatory responses makes it particularly valuable for those managing arthritis or age-related joint concerns.
Digestive Health
Traditionally used as a gentle digestive cleanser, Haritaki supports intestinal motility, promotes regular elimination, and helps restore gut balance. It also encourages healthy mucosal function, reducing irritation in the digestive tract while supporting nutrient absorption.
Nootropic Brain Health
Haritaki is known to sharpen memory, focus, and learning capacity. By improving circulation and oxygen delivery to the brain, it helps maintain cognitive performance. Its adaptogenic effects may also reduce stress and support clarity of thought.
Antioxidant & Anti-Aging Support
Rich in tannins, polyphenols, and flavonoids, Haritaki offers strong antioxidant activity that helps neutralize free radicals. This not only slows oxidative stress but also supports healthy aging across multiple body systems.
Immune System Balance
Haritaki’s antimicrobial and immune-modulating properties help the body defend against pathogens while supporting a balanced immune response. This dual action strengthens overall resilience without overstimulating the system.
