Promote urinary tract and prostate gland health with Gokshura - NL-067
Struggling with urinary health problems? Urinary symptoms such as urgent need to urinate, painful urination, frequent urination and incontinence can be annoying, interfere with sleep at night and impact your work, social life and overall quality of life. Taking gokshura supplements can be very effective in managing some of these symptoms.
Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris), is a plant well-known in Ayurveda for its role in supporting the health of genito-urinary system, preventing urinary tract infections and managing painful symptoms associated with prostate gland disorders. It is also known as gokhru, caltrops, cat's head and devil's weed.
Gokshura contains a wide range of bioactive compounds with incredible properties that support urinary tract health, especially in men. It is a diuretic and works as a urinary tonic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-spasmodic. Its ability to fight bacteria and reduce inflammation make it an extremely beneficial herb for urinary tract infections. In addition, it also helps flush harmful bacteria and other toxins with the urine because of its diuretic properties.
Studies show that gokshura also helps reduce the symptoms of prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a prostate disorder that affects many men as they get older. In this condition, an enlarged prostate causes obstruction in the urethra, which results in painful symptoms such as difficulty passing urine, weak stream of urine, painful urination, getting up many times at night to pee, and incomplete voiding of the bladder. Gokshura reduces these symptoms as it is a powerful diuretic and improves the production and flow of urine.
Gokshura also supports kidney health because of its diuretic and lithotriptic properties (it helps break and dissolve kidney stones). Research shows that gokshura reduces the production of mineral compounds that lead to the formation of kidney stones. It has also been found useful in removing excess uric acid that can cause joint pain and inflammation.
