Chanca Piedra 500 mg
GM Germa
Overview
This Chanca Piedra supplement contains Phyllanthus Niruri, an herb traditionally used for its anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective properties, and potential benefits in reducing kidney stone burden. While some meta-analyses of animal studies suggest anti-inflammatory effects, high-quality human trials confirming these effects and establishing optimal dosing are still needed. The supplement may offer some benefits, but more research is required to fully support its effectiveness.
