DIY Amla, Ginger And Curry Leaf Tonic To Boost Hair Growth

Amla (Indian gooseberry), ginger, and curry leaves are packed with antioxidants, Vitamin C, iron, and protein that stimulate follicles and prevent hair fall. Here is a simple, step-by-step DIY guide to making this potent tonic shot for natural hair regrowth, especially beneficial during dry winter months.

DIY Amla, Ginger, and Curry Leaf Tonic Shot

This recipe is designed to create a concentrated, consumable shot that you can take once daily.

Ingredients You'll Need

• One large, fresh Amla
• One-inch piece of fresh Ginger
• 10-15 Curry Leaves 
• One fourth cup of water

Step-by-Step Instructions

• Wash the amla and ginger thoroughly. De-seed the amla and chop it into rough pieces. Peel the ginger and chop it finely.
• Place the chopped amla, chopped ginger, and the fresh curry leaves into a blender jar.
• Add about 1/4 cup of fresh water to the jar. Blend the ingredients until they form a smooth, fine paste. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add just a tablespoon more water.
• Pour the paste through a fine mesh strainer or use a muslin cloth/cheesecloth over a bowl. Use the back of a spoon to press down firmly on the pulp, extracting as much liquid (the tonic shot) as possible.
• The resulting liquid is your concentrated tonic shot. It will be slightly sour and spicy.
• For tastiness, stir in 1 teaspoon of honey (or a pinch of black salt/rock salt) just before serving.
• Drink the shot immediately on an empty stomach in the morning for maximum nutrient absorption.

Why This Tonic Works

Amla has high Vitamin C content helps produce collagen, stimulating new hair growth and strengthening hair shafts. Ginger helps increase blood circulation to the scalp when consumed, which is essential for transporting nutrients to the hair follicles. Curry Leaves are loaded with proteins and amino acids that prevent hair thinning and reduce premature greying.
