Here is some info from the Himalaya brand web page .Apparently, the "fruits" are the same, but go by different names? At least that what it appears to me.
Please let me know how it goes for you. As this article says, it may take up to 2 weeks to notice a difference. So stick with it. BTW you can get this at whole foods or a HFS so you don't have to pay for shipping and it may be cheaper.
Maybe I will try the other brand again,just as an experiment. I don't understand the big difference in dosage. The himalaya brand says 1000mg a day and the Planetary says 4000mg. Big difference.
One thing that does alarm me, that I just learned tonight, is that the haritaki has fructose as an "ingredient" and fructose is a trigger for many with IBS. Oh my, more confusion. Maybe I should stop this altogether. Fructose intolerance is big with IBS. It seems like the harder I try to find something, I always find something bad about it. Why can't there just be one good thing with no triggers or bad things in it  I don't know if I should stop this now! What do you guys think?
Yet that same fruit it says reduces intestinal spasms! 
Take Care Jessica.
