About Guggulu
Indian Bdellium, which is called by the name Guggulu in India (It is also known as Commiphora Mukul), is one of the most trusted herbs which can be used as a purifying agent, a tonic that helps rejuvenate our cells/tissues, and plays an important role in balancing nervous system and solve reproductive system related complaints etc. It is also considered for its use in solving and controlling menstruation cycle related problems. Guggulu as described above, possesses purifying qualities, which help in purifying blood by removing toxins and other impurities from blood. As it cleanses blood and removes impurities, it also helps our cells to rejuvenate and become fresh and active. Its cleansing qualities are very effective in treatment of various skin disorders/diseases. For those who are suffering from skin related problems and various infections, Guggulu can help them in finding some relief as it helps in stimulation of Phagocytosis by increasing leukocytes level in the blood. The skin, kidneys, mucous membranes and many other internal organs omit this; this activity helps in keeping our body safe from getting infected. Guggulu is considered to be one of the most effective disinfectants that help our body in getting rid of the unwanted elements/substances naturally. It also helps in removing/reducing some type of unwanted tumors from our body (which are caused by infection). Along with cleansing the body, Guggulu also helps in reducing the level of Cholesterol from the blood. Guggulu is used in the weight control medicines/supplement as it helps in buring/reducing unwanted extra fat from our body in the most natural way. Guggulu is very helpful in conditions such as arthritis (a condition caused due to 'Vaat & Pitta Dosha') in which the patient suffers from the pain (Vaat Dosha) caused in the joints and also in cells/tissues. The other main reason of arthritis is, the toxic substance (which is caused due to some problem in digestive system, which results in half digested food which is referred as 'AMA' (TOXIN)) that gets accumulated in the tissues of body and induces the effect of pain in the body. As guggulu is very helpful in improving the digestive system and it also helps in removing toxins from our body, it can be used effectively in treatment of arthritis. (Trifala Guggulu is mainly used in the treatment of Arthritis; it also eases the inflammatory conditions).
