5 Wellness Buys for a Festive Glow: Immunity, Skincare and Hydration Picks That Work

Triphala Supplements for Gut-Driven Immunity

Your gut is running the show during the festive months. Late dinners, mithai overload, and erratic sleep all stress the gut lining, and a compromised gut means compromised immunity. Triphala, the three-fruit formulation of amalaki, bibhitaki, and haritaki, has been studied for its prebiotic effect on gut microbiota. A 2017 review published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine confirmed Triphala's antioxidant activity and its role in supporting gut motility and reducing oxidative stress. Buy it in capsule form from a brand that lists the extract ratio clearly, 500mg standardised extract is a practical starting dose. Take it at night with warm water. The glow that comes from a functioning digestive system is the one no serum can fake.
