Giloy Stem Kadha with Tulsi
A small piece of giloy stem simmered with tulsi leaves and ginger makes one short cup. It is not for pregnancy, and it is not a long daily course unless a doctor has asked for that.
Important: this remedy is only a supportive home measure. Keep taking any medicine your doctor has prescribed, monitor your readings, and consult your doctor before adding anything new.
A short giloy stem kadha with tulsi
Giloy stem is bitter, and many kitchens use only a small piece when the season changes. Tulsi leaves and a little ginger soften that bitterness into a short kadha. It is a kitchen cup, not a stand-in for medical care, and it does not promise stronger immunity.
Keep the stem piece small and the boil short. Pregnancy is a clear skip. If a doctor has not asked you to continue it, do not turn this into a weeks-long daily habit.
