Link Natural's Thripala is a tablet form of one of Ayurveda's oldest and most widely recognised formulations, known in Sanskrit as Triphala — a word that simply means 'three fruits'. The three fruits in question are Aralu (Terminalia chebula), Bulu (Terminalia bellirica), and Nelli (Phyllanthus emblica), known in Sanskrit as Haritaki, Bibhitaki, and Amalaki respectively. Each has been used in Ayurvedic practice for thousands of years, and together they form a preparation that Ayurveda classifies as a Rasayana, a rejuvenative category of formulation. This 500-tablet bottle is the large household size, registered under Sri Lanka's Ayurveda regulatory system with registration number 6/2/1/02/2.
Link Natural Products, founded in 1982 and headquartered in Colombo, is Sri Lanka's largest Ayurveda healthcare company, with a manufacturing facility at Kapugoda. The company applies modern pharmaceutical process controls — including Good Manufacturing Practice conditions — while working within the traditional Ayurvedic framework. The result is a tablet that is produced to consistent dosage standards, made from the dried fruits of the three constituent plants, and manufactured for both domestic and international regulated markets.
The tablets come in a sturdy white plastic bottle with a ribbed screw cap and a green and yellow label, designed for long-term household storage. The 500-tablet count makes this the practical choice for those who take the formulation as part of a regular daily routine rather than as an occasional course. The bottle carries a barcode, batch number, and clear manufacture and expiry dates on the base label.
The manufacturer's guidance indicates that the product should not be taken during pregnancy or in cases of diarrhoea. As with any registered Ayurvedic preparation, it is sensible to consult a qualified practitioner if you are taking other medicines or have an existing medical condition. The product is registered as an Ayurvedic medicine under Sri Lanka's Ayurveda regulatory system, not as a general food supplement.
