A small weed with a big reputation
Bhumi amla (Phyllanthus niruri) is a tiny herb with leaflets and small round fruits under the stem. It is used in traditional medicine, and wellness content often links it to the liver. Human evidence is limited and it should not be self-prescribed.
If you wish to try it, steep a pinch of dried herb in hot water for five minutes and sip a small cup, only after speaking to a doctor. This is a traditional tea and not a treatment for liver conditions or jaundice.
