What are the uses of Gokshuradi Guggul?

Quick Facts

• It is a guggulu, which means its base is a sticky gum that comes out of a thorny desert tree when its bark is cut. Each tablet breaks down in the stomach within an hour.
• Benefits — High blood sugar often brings urine trouble with it. The person passes urine many times a day. They also feel thirsty all the time. This tablet helps with this urine trouble. It is taken along with the regular sugar medicine, not in its place.
• Indications — Knee pain from old age, where the joint feels stiff after sitting for a while. It is also given when urine infections keep coming back.
• Dosage — 2 to 4 tablets, two or three times a day, best after food. Swallow them with Punarnavasava or lukewarm water.
• Side Effects — Problems are rare at the normal dose. It can bring blood sugar down a little. So anyone on sugar tablets or insulin should test their sugar more often in the first few weeks. Pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers should not take it.
• When urine trouble comes with tiredness and a weak body, Baidyanath Chandraprabha Vati is often added as a second tablet.
• Drink water all through the day, enough to keep your urine pale yellow. Dark yellow urine means the body needs more water.

Gokharu does not appear in the list as a powder. It goes in as kadha, 500 mg for every tablet, which is double the tablet's own weight. The plant spreads flat on dry ground, and its small fruit is covered in hard spikes. Across India, it is the herb people trust most for the urinary system. Sonth, kali mirch and pippali are the three hot spices from the kitchen. They help the stomach digest the gum, which is heavy by nature. And harad, baheda and amla together make triphala, which keeps the bowels moving. Nagarmotha is the root of a grass. It helps with a weak stomach and too much thirst.

Do's and Don'ts While Taking Gokshuradi Guggul

What to Eat

Old rice, kept for a year before cooking, suits this medicine. Moong is the best dal. Chaas, curd and cow's milk are all good. For vegetables, pick petha (ash gourd) and chichinda (snake gourd). Fresh ginger can go into cooking. Dry dates, coconut and elaichi are fine as well. A little sugar is allowed, but not for anyone with high sugar. Foods that cool the body are a good choice.

What to Avoid

Stay off oily and fried food. Mustard oil, hing and urad dal should be skipped too. Don't eat anything very spicy, very dry or very sour, like pickles and imli. And never eat foods that don't go together, such as milk with fish.

Lifestyle

A gentle oil massage followed by a warm bath is helpful. For older people with stiff knees, Baidyanath Mahanarayan Tail can be rubbed on the joints before the bath. Some Ayurvedic centres also give a herbal enema for long-standing trouble, where warm herbal kadha is used to clean the bowels. Avoid too much sex while the course is on.
