Boerhaavia Diffusa also known as Punarnava. Boerhaavia Diffusa MT is a pure extract of the flowering plant Four o’clock which is commonly known as Punarnava. It is a herb with Anti-cancer and Anti-inflammatory properties. It is also known to have Anti Diabetic and Diuretic properties.

It is known to have diuretic effects and has the ability to decrease the proliferation of immune cells hence helping in cases of cancer. It also has anti oxidant properties that help delay cell ageing and hence increase the longevity. Its anti diabetic properties are at power with standard diabetic drugs such as Metformin and Glibenclamide although further research is needed to confirm it.

Boerhaavia diffusa MT is used in cases of asthma; high blood pressure, dropsy, jaundice, gonorrhoea, general heart troubles and bites of venomous animals. The roots are diuretic, laxative, and expectorant in asthma. It is also used in stomach, in oedema, anaemia, ascites, anasarca, for scanty urine and for internal inflammation. Research reports support its diuretic, anti-inflammatory (like hydrocortisone) use. Reports of use in night blindness, restoration of virility, chronic peritonitis, abdominal tumor and cancer are available in the literature. A recent study indicates that punarnavine could enhance the immune response against metastatic progression of B16F-10 melanoma cells in mice.
