Triphala Rasayana Aushadha: An Ayurvedic Rejuvenative Formulation for Kayakalpa and Life Management

Abstract

Triphala Rasayana is one of the most revered polyherbal formulations of Ayurveda, widely prescribed for rejuvenation, detoxification, and longevity. Composed of three fruits—Amla (Emblica officinalis), Haritaki (Terminalia chebula), and Bahera (Terminalia bellirica)—Triphala acts as a balanced Rasayana capable of pacifying all three Doshas. It plays a pivotal role in Kayakalpa therapy, an Ayurvedic rejuvenation science aimed at arresting cellular degeneration, improving immunity, and restoring vitality. This review elaborates the classical Ayurvedic attributes, phytochemical composition, pharmacological actions, therapeutic applications, seasonal administration, safety profile, and life-management benefits of Triphala. By integrating traditional Ayurvedic principles with contemporary biomedical insights, the article establishes Triphala Rasayana as a safe, effective, and holistic formulation for preventive and promotive healthcare.
