Abstract : This article's goal is to review the available data about triphala's therapeutic use and efficacy. One of the earliest forms of medicine seen in conventional medical systems like Ayurveda is the use of herbs. A staple of gastrointestinal and restorative treatments is triphala, a popular and highly effective polyherbal herbal drug composed of the fruit of the botanical different species Emblica officinalis (Amalaki), Terminalia bellerica (Bibhitaki), and Terminalia chebula (Haritaki).Emblica officinalis, Terminalia chebula, as well as Terminalia belerica combine to form Triphala (TP). The goal of the current investigation was to evaluate its anti-cataract efficacy using both in vitro and in vivo tests in an experimental model of cataract caused by selenite.

Keywords : Ayurveda, Anti-Inflammatory, Immunomodulating, Microbiota, Antioxidant, Antimicrobial.
