Cat Whisker Grass, Thai and Chinese traditional herbal practitioner
have known the great benefits of this herb. Since long ago its been used
to treat gall bladder
patients. However, it was only relatively recently in 1985, that the
Thai Medical Profession officially accepted its use and benefits in
Thailand.
Dr. Weerachai Muengman of the Medical
Department of Ramathibhadee Hospital, the medical facility of Mahidol
University carried out extensive research on Cat Whisker Grass and its
benefits. In his work he used Cats’ Whisker Grass in the treatment of patients suffering from Urinary Stones (Kidney Stones) and Cystitis (Urinary Tract Infections).
According to his research, it was evened that Cats’ Whisker grass
contains high amounts of potassium which helps to relieve a patient who
had difficulty urinating and acts to enlarge the ureter and so reduce
pains from these symptom. The tea of Cats’ Whisker Grass is able to
fully treat the patients who have kidney stones of the size of a green
pea pod over the duration of 3-5 days. In some cases, patients got
better in only a day.
As an excessive accumulation of uric acid
in the body leads to a number of undesirable ailments and physical
discomforts, primary among which is gout, Cats’ Whisker Grass Tea can
treat kidney stone caused by both calcium and uric acid as the grass
will alkalise the urine.

100% Cats’ Whisker (Orthosiphon Aristatus) Grass dried leaves and stem.How to Use:
Put 1 sachet of the tea into a cup, pour hot water in and
let the tea steep. Wait 3 to 5 minutes for the tea to fully brew. Drink
while the tea is warm twice a day before breakfast and dinner.
It is very important not to boil the tea.

As consuming Cats Whiskers Tea will make
you urinate more, it is recommended that you drink the tea at lunchtime.
If you take it in the evening, it will probably result in a sleepless
night and you will need to urinate often.
