Herbpathy Research Team

Dear Hanu,
Horse Gram is beneficial for Diabetes .People take it in the form of curry or soups. However, the sprouted Horsegram is more beneficial.
But, for Diabetes there are other herbal treatments you may try for more benefits.
1.Tinospora Cordifolia, which is known as Giloy or Guduchi in Hindi. Buy a tincture of Giloy from a homeopathy store and take 10 drops in water every day. Take it for one month and check out your blood glucose level. If you notice any favorable changes, then continue.
Remember, Giloy is a very strong herb. Please, do not take other diabetes medications with this. It may lower your blood glucose level below normal.
Giloy has other benefits also. It is good for high blood pressure and high Cholesterol. It prevents the deposition of Plaque on the walls of the Arteries and reduces the risk of Heart attacks.
2. Karanjwa may also be beneficial for Diabetes. The botanical name of this herb is Caesalpinia Bonduc.
How to use Kranjwa?
Crack the Kranjwa seed. Take out the kernel, soak it overnight. Next morning eat the kernel and drink the water also.

Before taking any kind of medication, please consult your doctor first.

How to use Horse gram for gall bladder stone 5-6 calculli ?
Is it effective ?
 
Ishita Bhatt
23 Jul 2015
Dear Snigdha Patro

Horse Gram is very effective in removal of Kidney stones, since, you have stones in your Gall bladder, I would suggest you to get it removed, before the calculi size increases. As, the increase may lead to further complications.
I got my Gall bladder removed last month . Trust me, I tried all the herbs and allopathic medicines I could, but, all in vain.
Finally I had to get it removed. And after the surgery, I have been taking other herbs to tonify my body. Horse Gram is known to dissolve the Kidney stones.

Wishing you luck. Take good care of yourself.!
 
Vikas
30 Jul 2017
Agreed with Ishita. However i never gone through Gall balder stone. But i know both the stones have different chemical properties. And passing a atone from gall bladder is not easy. And having a stone in gall blader has more risk.

My mom got a small gallstone..may i know if drink this horsegram water can removed it..or can you suggest what can removed gallstone..to eat.
 
Herbpathy Research Team
04 Aug 2015
Dear Yuugasini A/P Nagarajan

Sorry to hear about your mother. Gallstones can not be removed by Horsegram. Horsegram is for Kidneystones. There is a slight possibility for the stone to get removed, if the it is a small one. However, if the size is more than 3mm, it might be problematic. If it gets stuck in the mouth of the Gallbladder, then, there may be an emergency.
So we suggest you to go for a planned surgery. And you may take the herbs afterwards to tonify the body and fasten up the recovery after surgery.

Dear Arun Kumar

The mentioned herbal treatment is beneficial to keep a good care of your Hair and prevent hair fall too.

1. Oil Massage. Like other body parts hair also need nourishment. Massage will help in improving the blood circulation over the Head and also provide nourishment to the hair. So do oil massage on regular basis. Boil a hand full of curry leaves in coconut oil. Store it and do massage twice in a week.
2. Apply fresh juice of onion for 10 to 15 minutes on your scalp. Onions are considered as the most ancient and common remedial treatment to regrow your hair. Onion is rich in sulphur and enhances the production of collagen in the body.
3. Eating one fresh Gooseberry at every morning will take care of your and Skin both.

Never use harsh chemicals on your hair. It will damage your hair and may result into baldness.

Dear Aminul Islam,
Berberis Vulgaris is the medicine used for expelling stones. But, there is a possibility of the stone moving down towards the small intestine. If it gets stuck in the passage of your organ , then it might cause an emergency.
It is advised that you consult your health care provider. You may go for a planned surgery, to avoid any emergency situation. Regards

Dear Lisa
Horsegram is a good herb to cure menstrual problems like scanty or irregular periods. Add horse gram to your daily diet whether in the form of sprouts, soups or boiled water to watch the results. Just make sure that you do not take too much of it. 20 gm per day would be sufficient.
You may try Horse Gram soup. Drink this soup for 1 week before your period cycle starts.. Do not take it during your menses please. Also, this herb is hot in nature, so usually not recommended to be taken in summers.

Can horse gram be used to clean up a carotid artery with mild plaque? it has been there for several years and doctor is not concerned since there is no blockage but I have been concerned and want it removed ...I suffer for many years from tinnitus and have severe hearing loss and now I learn that hearing loss has been linked by scientific researchers to carotid artery disease...

I am determined to reverse my hearing loss and it seems cleaning up the carotid artery is a key factor....

I have been using karma poorna oil, shravananda vati, ashwagandha for tinnitus with no significant results...So I want to focus on the carotid artery....Will horse gram help me clean it? IN the past the tinnitus has been pulsatile but not so much anymore...

I know I must also lower my LDL cholesterol which is at 170...( HDL is 65) .but guggulu seems to increase the tinnitus so I need an alternative.....Will horse gram also help with this also?

Soak horse gram seeds overnight and morning cook it well. Grind the seeds and filter the extracts. Add cumin powder and salt in this soup. Consume it daily twice to get the maximum benefits. Dry roast horse gram seeds and make a fine powder. Store this powder in air tight container. Add the powder in buttermilk and consume daily to trim down extra fats. Good luck !!

Soaking overnight releases the phytic acid, thus making the soaked ones to get easily cooked and eatable. The water having phytic acid should be thrown away, else will cause bloating if consumed. Wash the soaked grams many times and then boil. Once it gets tender and water becomes brown, consume the solution.

Dear Ramya.S. Your husband should take Mahayograj Guggul capsules for a month. This very really help him with the back pain. To reduce belly fat : Soak horse gram seeds overnight and morning cook it well. Grind the seeds and filter the extracts. Add cumin powder and salt in this soup. Consume it daily twice.
drink green tea daily, early morning.
Swallow a tablespoon of raw Fenugreek seeds daily. Eating 250 gm of Papaya daily for dinner will also help to reduce weight. Avocado. This is a great fruit, which helps in reducing weight. It will suppress your hunger, reduces the urge to eat and will help to shed off extra calories, that too without any side effect.
Have your dinner 2 hours prior to bed. If you go to bed soon after you finish eating, your body will not burn the fat and this might increase your cholesterol level. Drink Dandelion tea everyday to reduce the tummy fat.
Also, take Cranberry juice in the morning, for a month. continued....

You said, you want to reduce 20 kg that means you want be 58 kgs. Well, I think then you would become under weight. You should take care of your Kidneys first, It might be due to edema that usually caused in Kidney patients.
You try the following Herbs.
1. Tribulus Terrestris ( Gokhuru ) : Buy tincture from a Homeopathy Shop and take 10 drops 3 times in a day.
2. Buy Boerhavia Diffusa extract and have 10 drops 3 times in a day. It is also available in powder form.
3. Buy Crataeva Nurvala tincture and take 10 drops 3 times in a day.
4. Have 2 cups of Green tea daily.
5. For Hemoglobin, Have Pomegranate juice and Beet root daily.
You may follow this regimen for 1 month. These herbs are all good for Kidneys.

If you are afraid that your daughter's body type is hot . And Horsegram is hot in nature. And both do not go with each other. You are right. And delaying the puberty is not at all the right thing to do. You cfan change the potency of Horsegram, this can be done by soaking it overnight. By, doing this the herb becomes cold in nature. Take 30 gm of Horse Gram. Soak it overnight in about three to four glasses of water. Next morning, boil it for 10 minutes. Once the color is brown, strain the solution and drink it. add rock salt and pepper to it. Give this drink in the morning on an empty stomach.
Give her papaya everyday.
Always consult your health care provider before tring any herb.

Narender No there is no relevance of Coriander with kidney stones. However, Horsegram is an amazing herb for the same. You may take Horsegram in the soup form, in the sprouts. The herb is hot in nature, that is why it is suggested that you soak the horsegram overnight and then use it the next day. You may drink the water in which it was soaked and later you can eat the horsegram in the boiled form. Varuna is another very effective herb to remove Kidney Stones.

One everyday. Another herb which will take care of your Kidneys. All the very best. Hope you get well soon.

The most effective way of taking it for weight loss is by soaking it overnight. And drinking the water, the next morning. It is roasted so that it gets powdered easily and roasting it makes its potency hot and soaking makes it cold. You may drink horsegram soup everyday in winters.
Do not overlook the nature of the Herb-- It is hot in nature.

Horse Gram is one of the cures for Kidney Stones. If you are not sure, then why don't you get yourself diagnosed, Ultrasound should be done to confirm. If the stone is still there, you may try Gokharu Herb and Varuna. These Herbs can be taken for a month. Varuna will dissolve the gravel or the calculi , take it's homeopathic tincture ,Crateava Nurvala is the name.

Dear Sir/Madam, i hav been taking horsegram for weight loss by grinding the raw seeds into powder and then mixing it with hot water. i take this every morning. Is that the correct way? Now, im trying for pregnancy. Can i still take the horsegram powder?

my husband has big belly problem and also constipation due to irregular sleeping hours. How can i use the horsegram to help him? Can i grind the raw seeds or must it be cooked first?

You can use it in either way for your husband. Boil it and give him one bowl every day or you can soak the horse gram in water overnight and next morning he can drink the water. He can also take apple cider vinegar with hot water to reduce belly fat.
If you have already consumed it for one to two months, you can stop consuming it now. Also, you are planning to conceive, you should not have it now.

For High Cholesterol, the best Herbs are
Spirulina and Burdock.
take one capsule of each, every day for a month.
Do you suffer from any other ailment like High Blood Pressure or Diabetes ? I would suggest that you include Garlic in your daily diet. It is the best herb for Heart.

The regular consumption of Horsegram is known to decrease the high Blood Pressure. So, I think it can be taken by those suffering from High Blood Pressure.

Hi

I recently started eating horse gram sprouts, and noticed an unusual pattern. Every time I eat horse gram lentils, with in two hours my stomach is upset, and I have to make bowel movement. It is quick and watery like I had diarrhea, but once I’m done I’m back to normal, and everything is fine. This happened every single time I consumed these spouts for last seven days. I’m regular eater of other sprouts like mung, lentils, chickpeas etc and this has never happened to me except this ONE food. Did this happen to any of you, and what is the remedy? I don’t want to skip this power food, and wondering if this is a simple side effect I have to deal with or some major problem like this is not really gelling well with my body so its throwing it out. I don’t know how to read this sign. Any advice is appreciated.

Srini. How much do you eat ? And do you know the herb is hot in nature ? and if it does not suit your body, the body will not accept it and you will eventually suffer from diarrhea.You can do one thing: Try reducing the intake and eat the sprouts on alternate days instead of taking them regularly. Reducing the amount of sprouts and taking it less often is the way out.

For PCOS is Fevernut. Drink decoction , one glass everyday for a month. This will regularize your periods. And to reduce weight you can drink Kollu soup everyday for a month. Regular exercise is as important for you as the herbs. So, exercise everyday.
Go for 20 minutes brisk walking twice in a day for a month.
This will help to reduce weight quite fast.

Take Dead Nettle tea, one cup every day for 15 days, it is an excellent remedy to cure White Discharge.

Take Horsegram soup or its water for 2 months. I hope you are soaking the pulse in water for one night and then drinking its water, the next morning. Remember, Horsegram is hot in nature, it has to be soaked in water before consuming it, so that its potency is changed to a cold one. Also drink Apple Cider Vinegar. Added to a glass of warm water. Add one tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar to one glass for a month. Do regular exercise.

Horse Gram is beneficial for Diabetes .People take it in the form of curry or soups. You may continue to take Horsegram to reduce the weight. Another remedy to reduce weight is Apple Cider Vinegar. For Ed ( Erectile Dysfunction ), take Land Caltrops capsules, one daily for a month and Mucuna Pruriens capsules, one daily.

Horsegram is hot in nature, it may lower the libido. Make sure you do not take it for a prolonged period. For Gout, you may take Baking Soda, a pinch added to a half glass of water. Eat the radish leaves in dinner ( cooked ) daily for 15 days every month. It is known to lower the Uric Acid.

Taking dry roasted horse gram powder with warm water on empty stomach
Or
Soaking horse gram and consuming the boiled water
Which one is effective for weight loss?
Please reply me

Also heard that drinking the soaked water is not good.... Is it true?
 
Herbpathy
12 Jan 2018
If you take soaked Horsegram, then its potency is changed to cold. So, it can not be taken during Winters. But,, is best during Summers. Also it should not be taken for particular diseases. If you take it in the powder form or directly the soup form, without soaking it overnight, then Horsegram acts as a hot herb, which is good to be taken during winters . So, the intake depends on the region where you live in and the disease that you wish to use it for.

Dear Vasundhara
1. The best Herb for removing the stones or gravel is Varuna. Its tincture is known as Crataeva Nurvala.
Take 10 drops of this tincture in a glass of water, twice in a day for a month.
2. Buy Tribulus Terrestris tincture from a Homeopathy Shop and take 10 drops 3 times in a day. It will take care of your Kidneys.
3. Punarnava water extract. Take 10 drops 2 times in a day.
Take these remedies for a month.

You may try Horse Gram soup. Drink this soup for 1 week.
For any queries, you can always write back to us.
