Don’t take triphala or any other powders to get relief over constipation I have seen many pts who are consuming triphala since 10 15 years regularly Mode of action of triphala -The gunas, or qualities, of Amalaki are heavy and dry, and both Haritaki and Bhibitaki are considered light and dry it will cause dryness indirectly as it will relief constipation It’s cause more dryness in your intestines and constipation will turns to chronic constipation Better to avoid I never prescribe any powder for constipation to any pts Better to take Gandharv Hastadi tail as it’s lubricates your intestines and breaks down the mala (stool)

It is not a laxative but it improve your digestive system .when your digestive system is good then constipation will go automaticly. Triphla works on whole digestive system. If you do not want to face constipation then start this:- :- drink atleast 1 ltr water in a day :- eat boiled beat root in your salad :- drink warm milk at night before sleep.

Triphala is a good laxative.  It helps in good bowel movement.  It mitigates all impurities from the body. The different anupana used along with the powder does different action to the body. Generally it is served with warm water.  The dosage is according to ones bowel movement. Moreover it act as a Rasayana.
