Two teaspoons of the powdered leaves can also be mixed with 100 ml of water. Drink it daily for about a month.

The herb also comes in the form of tincture and capsules. You may go with any of the options.
If you are to consume capsules, make sure you take them regularly for a month or two. And ask your health care provider about the dosage according to the condition and your body. We usually recommend 2 pills after dinner with a large glass of water.

How to use to reduce body weight.

Dear K C Pareek

To reduce body weight try honey and lemon. It is really effective. Me and my friends have tried this. I have lost 8 kgs. And it is easily available. Take one glass of lukewarm water. Add one lemon and one tablespoon of honey in it. Drink it every morning for two one month.
For effective results you should avoid oily and spicy food. As they add extra fat to our body. Do Yoga also.

To control your blood sugar, the super effective Herb is Gudmar.Its homeopathic name is Gymnema Sylvestre, Take its tincture form. Monitor your sugar levels. Start with 5 drops in a glass of water before every major meal. Monitor your sugar levels. It may be increased to 6,8 and then 10 drops. You'd have to keep a check on your sugar level, and then adjust the dosage accordingly. The Herb will considerably decrease the sugar level.

Aloe Vera and Triphala are the Herbs for Ulcerative Colitis. Not Talmakana. Dink 30 ml Aloe vera juice daily on an empty stomach. or... Wheat Grass juice can be taken once in a day. Take 30 ml only. try for 15 days. This is quite effective. Avoid food like-- alcohol, coffee, dairy products (for people who are lactose intolerant or sensitive), seeds, legumes, peas,beans, raw veggies or fruits, dried fruits, meat, nuts, spicy foods......

The remedial treatment for Arthritis is Ginseng Siberian. Buy capsules and take one capsule every day at least for one. Observe the results and continue if it suits you.
Apart from this use Yarrow essential oil. Mix Yarrow Essential oil with Castor Oil. Heat the mixture. Massage with this oil on the affected Joints.
Yarrow has Antiarthritic properties and Castor oil has antiinflammatory properties.
Both these herbs work in Harmony and cure Arthritis. Please consult your Doctor before taking any kind of medications.
