By Herbal Hills Research Team | Medically reviewed by: Dr. Ajitkumar Mandlecha, BAMS, M.Phil (Musculoskeletal Disorder), Medical Director, Vishwanand Kendra, Pune

Searches for Ayurvedic medicine for weight loss run into thousands every month in India, but Ayurveda approaches weight as part of overall digestion and metabolism, never as a quick fix. Trimohills from Herbal Hills combines classical herbs for Medoroga and was evaluated in overweight adults over 3 months alongside healthy habits.

Quick answer: Trimohills is an Ayurvedic tablet combining Triphala, Trikatu, Trimad, Shuddha Guggulu and Vrikshamla. In an in-house study at Vishwanand Kendra, Pune, overweight adults (BMI 25–30) took 2 tablets twice a day before food for 3 months; the researchers reported a significant decrease in BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference and waist-hip ratio (p<0.001).

How does Ayurveda approach weight management?

Ayurveda describes excess body fat under Medoroga, linked with weak digestive fire (Agni), accumulation of Ama and excess Meda dhatu. Management focuses on improving digestion and metabolism with herbs that have Lekhana (scraping), Pachana (digestive) and Shodhana (cleansing) properties, alongside diet and physical activity.

What does each ingredient group contribute?

In Ayurvedic pharmacology, Triphala supports digestion and regular elimination, Trikatu supports Agni and improves the bioavailability of other herbs, Trimad acts as a digestive and appetiser, Shuddha Guggulu is traditionally used for healthy lipid metabolism, and Vrikshamla is traditionally used to support appetite control.

How was the Trimohills study designed?

Adults with a BMI between 25 and 30 and no co-morbidities took 2 Trimohills tablets twice a day before food for 3 months. People with endocrine disorders, PCOS, hypertension, diabetes, psychiatric disorders or recent use of weight-related supplements, and pregnant or lactating women, were excluded. The primary outcome was change in BMI; secondary outcomes were waist circumference and clinical symptom scores.

What results did the study report?

Of 30 participants recruited, 26 completed the study. The researchers reported a statistically significant decrease in BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference and waist-hip ratio (p<0.001) and concluded that Trimohills was safe and effective in the study group.

Is Ayurvedic medicine for weight loss used alone?

No. In Ayurvedic practice, formulations like Trimohills are used as part of a complete plan that includes diet (Pathya), regular physical activity and healthy daily routine (Dinacharya). Results depend on the whole plan, and practitioners should set realistic, gradual goals with each individual.

Who should not use Trimohills?

Based on the study exclusions, Trimohills was not evaluated in pregnant or lactating women, people under 18, or people with endocrine disorders, PCOS, diabetes or hypertension. Practitioners should assess suitability before recommending it.
