Why You Need It

- Natural Cleanser: Encourages the body's natural process of flushing out waste and excess fluid.
Deep Dive
The magic of Varuna lies in its rich profile of plant compounds (like saponins and tannins). These compounds work synergistically to tone the tissues of the urinary tract. Unlike harsh chemical diuretics, Varuna works gently. It helps strengthen the bladder wall muscles (detrusor muscle), which can weaken over time or due to stress. This improved muscle tone leads to better control and reduced feelings of urgency. It also possesses mild anti-inflammatory properties, helping to soothe the lining of the bladder and urethra, making urination less uncomfortable.
Natural Food Sources
Important Note: Varuna is a specific herbal extract, not a nutrient found in common fruits or vegetables. You cannot get a therapeutic dose from your diet alone; it requires a concentrated supplement or a specific herbal preparation.

- Standard Dosage: Typically 300mg to 500mg of standardized extract, taken twice daily.
- Who Should Take It: Ideal for individuals experiencing frequent urination, weak flow, or bladder discomfort.
