Choti Harad, also known as Small Haritaki or Chebulic Myrobalan, is a widely used herb in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Sourced from the dried fruit of the Terminalia chebula tree, Choti Harad is known for its smaller size and stronger potency compared to regular harad. It is especially valued for its ability to support digestion, detoxify the body, and balance the three doshas – Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
Bitter, astringent, and slightly sweet in taste, Choti Harad is commonly used to relieve constipation, improve gut health, enhance appetite, and reduce bloating. Its natural laxative and rejuvenating properties make it an effective remedy for digestive disorders and general fatigue. It is also used to boost immunity, promote better metabolism, and improve skin health.
Choti Harad can be consumed in powder form, boiled into a decoction, or used in traditional formulations like Triphala. It is a gentle, natural supplement for daily wellness and internal cleansing.
