Is Triphala suitable for everyone?
The contraindications of Triphala are limited. Triphala should not be taken by pregnant women and lactating mothers unless prescribed by the doctor. For people with a sensitive stomach, it may cause loose stools. As Triphala is cleansing (Shodhana) in nature, it is not usually recommended for thin people. However, a thin adult can take half a teaspoon of Triphala along with a teaspoon of ghee at night. The nourishing qualities of ghee would negotiate the cleansing effect of Triphala.
The only problem perhaps with Triphala is its bitter taste. It is not congenial to everybody's liking. For those who cannot tolerate its bitterness especially on an empty stomach they can tryTriphala tablets.
If you are allergic to any of the ingredients in Triphala it is better to avoid using it internally and externally.
