What is the most medicinal Indian fruit tree?

• Phyllanthus acidus - Otaheite Gooseberry, Amlak - is very close related to the famous Phyllanthus emblica (Amla, Amlaki), however it is much hardier plant.
• Known as Amritphala in Sanskrit, which literally means the fruit of heaven or nectar fruit. It is so called because it is rich in many desirable properties, including medicinal.
• Small to medium in size tree, under 20 feet, very bushy and pretty.
• Fruits are borne in loose clusters, which hang from the tree trunk and main branches. Fruits are very acidic and tart, and esteemed for jellies, preserves and pastries.
• There are no commercial plantings; only in home gardens.
• The Amla fruit paste is a major ingredient of Chavyanprash, a popular Ayurvedic tonic. It is the richest source of vitamin C. Phyllanthus acidus is called Ari Nelli in Tamil, and the Phyllanthus emblica (Amlaki) is Muzhu Nelli in Tamil. Muzhu Nelli is even richer in Vitamin C etc.
