Can I Take Giloy Every Day for Immunity, or Is It Harmful in the Long Run? - #11843

I recently started taking Giloy juice every morning because I heard it’s one of the best natural immunity boosters in Ayurveda. A lot of people around me have been talking about how Giloy helped them recover faster from illnesses and even prevented them from catching seasonal colds and flu. Since my immunity is naturally weak—I catch colds often and take longer to recover from infections—I thought taking Giloy daily might be a good idea. But now, after doing some reading online, I’m confused. Can I take Giloy every day safely, or is there a limit to how much and how long I should use it? I’ve been using it for about a month now, and I feel good—more energetic, no major illnesses, and digestion feels slightly better too. However, I came across some articles saying that long-term use of Giloy might not be safe because it can thin the blood and lower body temperature. Since Ayurveda classifies it as a cooling herb, I’m worried—can I take Giloy every day without disrupting my body's balance? I tend to feel cold easily, especially in winter, so could this make me even more sensitive to cold weather? Another thing I read is that Giloy can lower blood sugar levels. I don’t have diabetes, but I do feel dizzy sometimes if I don’t eat on time. If I take Giloy every day, could it cause my blood sugar to drop too much? Should people with naturally low blood pressure or sugar levels avoid it? Also, if I keep taking Giloy every day, will my body get dependent on it? I want to build natural immunity, not become reliant on herbal supplements. Some people say that Ayurvedic herbs should be cycled—taking them for a few months and then taking a break. Should I do this with Giloy too? How long should I take it before stopping for a while? Another big question—what is the best form to take? I’ve been drinking Giloy juice, but I also see tablets, powders, and even fresh Giloy stems that can be boiled into tea. Which one works best for immunity, and does the form change how often I can take Giloy every day? I don’t want to harm my body while trying to strengthen my immunity. If Ayurveda recommends Giloy, there must be proper guidelines on how often and how long to take it. So, my main questions are: Can I take Giloy every day safely, or should I take breaks? Will long-term use of Giloy make me dependent on it? Could daily consumption lower blood sugar too much or cause side effects in people with low blood pressure? What’s the best way to consume Giloy—juice, powder, or tablets? Is Giloy more beneficial in certain seasons, or can it be taken year-round? Would really appreciate expert advice on this. I want to do what’s best for my health without overdoing it.
