Taiyo Europe Launch Amla Fruit Ingredient

The fruit’s impressive concentration of antioxidants, along with extremely high levels of vitamin C and gallic acid serve to protect against oxidation of the cells, the process responsible for ageing.

08/05/09 Taiyo Europe has enhanced its functional ingredient portfolio with the launch of SunAmla. Long regarded as a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine, the amla fruit (Emblica officinais or the native Indian gooseberry) offers a powerful combination of vitamins, polyphenols and dietary fibres, promoting a healthy immune system and general wellbeing.

The fruit works throughout the body to deliver a variety of health benefits.  Proven to promote vascular health, the amla can improve blood flow, helping to prevent thrombosis and inflammation. Metabolism and digestive function also benefit from the amla’s natural properties, which balance glucose levels and ease conditions such as hypocholestomia and hypolipidemia.

Regulation of body weight is aided as levels of visceral fat stored within the body are reduced. The fruit’s impressive concentration of antioxidants, along with extremely high levels of vitamin C and gallic acid serve to protect against oxidation of the cells, the process responsible for ageing.

“Instances of illness such as type 2 diabetes and obesity are widespread matters that we must address in today’s society” comments Josef Skrna, marketing manager at Taiyo Europe. “SunAmla is a highly bioavailable formulation, designed to facilitate the delivery of vital components such as polyphenols, which work to combat free radicals, in turn contributing to all round better health.”
