Not that much. Just what I've read on iHerb.com's website and the fact that my friend is taking it now and thinks that it's helping her.
One of her traditional doctors (a gastroenterologist) is of Indian descent and he recommended it to her.Here's a blurb from iHerb:
"Planetary Formulas Triphala Internal Cleanser is a potent yet gentle formula, designed to support the body's natural cleansing process. It has been one of the most important formulas of Ayurvedic herbalism for thousands of years. Triphala is a balanced blend of three Indian herbal fruits: harada, amla, and behada. This formula is unique in that the astringent qualities of the fruits serve to tonify the colon, thereby promoting internal cleansing naturally."
