Enlarged or inflamed prostate? Try Hydrangea Root for improved prostate health. It is an old and reliable American remedy for a healthy urinary tract, helping to alleviate urinary, bladder and kidney inflammation. Hydrangea also helps to relieve kidney-related backache and to expel kidney and bladder stones.
Beneficial Uses:
Hydrangea has a long history of promoting a healthy prostate and urinary tract. It combats infection and is believed to be very helpful in treating inflamed or enlarged prostate and bladder infection, including cystitis, urethritis and prostatitis, etc. As a diuretic, it promotes the flow of urine and is said to remove bladder and kidney stones and the pain caused by them.
Hydrangea Root stimulates the kidneys to release retained fluid and helps to prevent the formation of gravel. It will also help to pass deposits through the ureters from the kidneys to the bladder. Importantly, the herb is also used to relieve the backache often caused by kidney trouble and dissolve and remove kidney stones.
Further supporting a healthy urinary tract, Hydrangea Root helps treat urine problems, such as frequent urination that may also be accompanied by burning pain, and it has been used to help treat bedwetting problems in children.
Hydrangea Root is believed to be a blood cleanser and may treat lymphatic conditions that are caused by poor blood.
