Description
What is it
Nellikai (Phyllanthus emblica), the Indian gooseberry, is known as amla in Hindi and Amalaki in Sanskrit. Bite into one and you get the whole story: sharply sour, then astringent, then a surprising sweetness when you sip water afterwards.
Siddha and Ayurveda both treasure nellikai, valuing it for digestive and gut wellness as part of a daily routine. We use the dried fruit alone, ground into a fine, tangy powder.
What Makes This Different
- Fruit only. Made from dried nellikai fruit, not leaves or bark.
- Bright and tangy. Carefully dried to keep the fruit’s lively sour character.
- Single ingredient. 100% Nellikai (amla) fruit, with no fillers, flavouring or blending agents.
What It Does
- A treasured fruit of Siddha and Ayurveda. Valued for digestive and gut wellness.
- Naturally rich in vitamin C. Amla is one of nature’s well-known sources of vitamin C.
- Easy to enjoy. Stir into water with honey, add to buttermilk, or blend into juice and chutney.
- A gift worthy of a poet. In Sangam-era Tamil tradition, the chieftain Athiyaman found a rare nellikkani and, instead of eating it himself, gave it to the poet Avvaiyar, one of the most celebrated gifts in Tamil literature.
A Fruit Fit for Avvaiyar
A king once handed a single gooseberry to a poet, and Tamil literature has remembered it ever since. FounditGood Nellikai Powder brings that celebrated fruit to your table, tangy, bright and ready to use.

The FounditGood Promise
For more than a decade, from our home in Pollachi at the foot of the Western Ghats, we have prepared Siddha and Ayurvedic herbs for families across India and customers in many countries around the world. Every pouch carries the same quiet promise: the right herb, prepared the right way.
- Traditional knowledge, carried forward. We prepare each herb the way South Indian tradition intends: the right plant part, cleaned, dried and processed with care.
- Sourcing we can stand behind. A deeply integrated supply chain, built over years with growers and gatherers we know, keeps every herb traceable and every batch consistent.
- Stone-ground, in small batches. Our herbs are ground slowly on stone and in small quantities, so each batch is carefully watched from start to finish.
- Clean label, clean process. Nothing added, nothing hidden: no fillers, colours, flavours or preservatives, made in an FSSAI Central Licensed, GMP-compliant, ISO 22000-certified facility.
- Independently checked. Our products are periodically tested by independent third-party laboratories.
- An ethical commitment. Honest labels, careful work and a refusal to cut corners on quality, because we would rather make less than make it worse.
- Appreciated by those who use it. Customers at home and abroad keep coming back, and their trust is the standard we hold ourselves to.
