Ambali restores gut microbiome and relieves constipation
  • Ambali is made by soaking millet grains for 8‑10 hours, grinding them into a paste, and fermenting in a clay pot for 2‑3 days.
  • The fermentation process produces lactic‑acid bacteria and beneficial yeasts that colonize the intestine, increasing fiber‑fermenting capacity.
  • Dr. Vali reports that regular ambali consumption clears constipation within a week for most patients, eliminating the need for laxatives.
  • He also notes a measurable reduction in abdominal bloating and gas, attributing it to the breakdown of anti‑nutritional factors during fermentation.
  • The drink is inexpensive, requires no commercial starter cultures, and can be prepared at home with basic kitchen tools.
