R52.00
Pharma Germania Natural Products Cornsilk (Indian Corn Beard) Herb Cut is a dried preparation of the silky stigmas of Zea mays, commonly known as Maize or Corn.
Cornsilk is the fine, thread-like material found beneath the husk of the corn cob. Although familiar as part of the maize plant, it also has a longstanding history of use in traditional Western and indigenous herbal practices.
Herbalists have traditionally valued Cornsilk as a soothing urinary tract herb and mild diuretic, using it to support normal urinary function, urine flow and the body’s natural elimination of excess fluid.
Its soothing traditional use has also made Cornsilk popular in herbal preparations intended to support bladder and urinary tract comfort.
Cornsilk naturally contains flavonoids, phenolic compounds, plant sterols and other phytochemicals. Its traditional urinary applications should not, however, be interpreted as evidence that it treats urinary tract infections or kidney disease.

Why Choose Pharma Germania Cornsilk (Indian Corn Beard) Herb Cut?
Cornsilk is particularly valued in herbal medicine for its gentle, soothing association with the urinary system.
Unlike strongly stimulating diuretic herbs, Cornsilk has traditionally been used when both urinary comfort and normal fluid elimination are desired.
Its traditional use includes bladder and urinary wellness, but symptoms such as burning urination, fever or blood in the urine require appropriate medical assessment rather than relying on Cornsilk as a treatment.
