Haritaki (Terminalia chebula), also known as black or chebulic myrobalan, is a fruit native primarily to Southeast Asia. In Ayurvedic medicine, it is a component of Triphala, the most important blend of royal fruits. Haritaki is used in various forms, such as powder and capsules, in Ayurvedic formulations to balance all three doshas (vata, pitta, and kapha).

Haritaki capsules offer a convenient way to benefit from the powder's beneficial properties. They are typically taken before meals with sufficient liquid to improve digestibility.
It is recommended to start with a low dose and gradually increase it.
In Ayurveda, Haritaki combines well with amla, ginger, turmeric and ghee (clarified butter).
