Abstract For public health systems, the increasing incidence of lifestyle diseases is a serious obstacle. Although there are effective therapies available in modern medicine, there are still research gaps in areas like long-term management, and avoiding side effects. Herbal medicines and plant components are not toxic and have no side effects. They are notable therapeutic options for the treatment of various diseases. One of the most significant herbs in the Indian traditional medicinal system of Ayurveda is Amla (Emblica officinalis), or Indian gooseberry which is known as the "king of all medicinal plants". Amla is commonly used for managing conditions like diabetes, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, cancer due to the presence of phytochemicals like vitamin C, antioxidants (Phenols, flavonoids, anthocyanins, carotenoids, gallic acid, emblicin). These compounds have inherent properties like being anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, and immunity boosting. Amla is used extensively, in the form of pickles, chutneys or juices when in season whereas it can be used as a supplement in forms like capsules, tablets, extracts and powders. Studies on Amla supplementation prove that it can help reduce fat mass in obese individuals, reduce blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Using Amla powder in recipes could be a novel method to derive the benefits of Amla. Various value-added products have been developed using Amla powder. Efforts need to be made to promote the consumption of Amla in different forms by its incorporation in various traditional regional recipes.
