Shilajit (or Shilajit Bhasma) is a classical Ayurvedic Rasayana, but it is not the primary medicine for dissolving kidney stones. Ayurveda uses Pashanabheda (Bergenia ligulata), Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris), and Varunadi Kwath for urinary stones. WARM REGARDS DR. ANJALI SEHRAWAT

Shilajit Bhasma is NOT recommended as a primary or standalone treatment for kidney stones. It is heating and can sometimes aggravate stone formation or pain (especially oxalate/uric acid stones) if used incorrectly or in high dose. ✓It can be used in Very small dose (62.5–125 mg/day) only if stones are small (<5 mm), no active pain/infection, and urologist approves Best for general strength/energy, not for dissolving/expelling stones ✓Better & Safer Ayurvedic Prescription Chandraprabha Vati – 2 tablets twice daily after food Gokshuradi Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food Varunadi Kashayam – 15 ml + 45 ml warm water morning empty stomach Punarnavadi Mandoor – 250 mg twice daily after food ✓Daily Routine Drink 3–4 L warm water sip-by-sip (add lemon if tolerated) Barley water – boil 2 tsp barley in 1 L water → drink 2–3 glasses daily Warm sitz bath – 15 min evening ✓Diet Eat: moong khichdi + ghee, pomegranate, cucumber (peeled), cooked lauki Avoid: spinach, tomato, brinjal, beans, salt excess, cold drinks, non-veg ✓Repeat ultrasound after 6–8 weeks Regards Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma

Can Shilajit be used for Kidney Stones? Shilajit Bhasma is NOT first choice for kidney stones. Used for Weakness Urinary problems Energy For kidney stones, better herbs are different.

Gokshura – 1 tablet twice daily Varunadi Kashayam – 15 ml twice daily before food Chandraprabha Vati – 1 tablet twice daily Drink 3–4 liters water daily Coconut water helpful Avoid spinach, tomato seeds, excess salt

Hello So, you’ve had kidney stones for a while now, like over half a year, and that lower back pain sounds like a real drag – pretty normal when those stones are messing with your flow. You’re wondering if Shilajit Bhasma can help bust them up and get rid of them without causing problems, right? AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING Okay, so in Ayurveda, they call kidney stones Ashmari. Basically, here’s what’s up: – Something blocks your pee pipes which causes issues. – Then, stuff heats up, and tiny bits in your pee turn into crystals. – Plus, if you’re not drinking enough water, your pee gets too strong, making things worse. That’s how stones form and cause pain. Now, Shilajit Bhasma is supposed to be a good medicine for breaking up those Ashmari and making your urine flow better. Here’s the plan: – Get rid of the stones – Make you urine more – Clear out any blockages – Stop the pain – Keep new stones from forming AYURVEDIC PLAN INTERNAL MEDICATION 1. Shilajit Bhasma: Just a tiny pinch (125 mg) two times a day. Mix it with some Gokshura tea or just warm water. Best to take it after you eat. 2. Varunadi Kashaya 20 ml, two times a day. 3. Chandraprabha Vati: Two tablets two times a day. EXTERNAL CARE: – Put a hot water bag on your lower back. – Take it easy and go for a walk. HOME REMEDIES – Drink barley water. – Sip on coconut water. – Add lemon to your water. – Have some Kulthi dal soup. What to eat:INCLUDE Rice, bottle gourd, pumpkin, cucumber, moong dal ❌ AVOID: Tomato, spinach, tea, coffee, too much salt Other things to do: – Drink plenty of water – like 3–4 liters a day. – Don’t hold your urine! – Go for a walk every day. – Don’t get dehydrated. Shilajit Bhasma can be helpful for kidney stones if you use it the right way. Usually, you should see the stones start to dissolve and the pain ease up in about 6–8 weeks. Hope you feel better soon! Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

HELLO, Kidney stones are formed due to imbalance of mainly Vata and Kapha Dosha, along with improper diet and low water intake. Since you have had stones for more than 6 months with lower back pain, proper and systemic management is important. ABOUT SHILAJIT FOR KIDNEY STONES Shilajit is considered -Mutrala (diuretic) -ashmari-bhedana (helps break stones) -vata balancing -improves kidney function However, Shilajit alone is usually not sufficient for breaking kidney stones. It works better in combination with other herbs IMPORTANT= Use only purified shilajit or classical shilajitt bhasma from a trusted source HOW TO TAKE BHASMA DOSE= 250mg twice daily mix with warm water or take with honey+lukewarm water best after food DURATION= for 6-8 weeks minimum OTHER EFECTIVE MEDICINE ALONG WITH SHILAJIT 1) GOKSHURADI GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =reduces pain, breaks stones, improves urine flow 2) VARUNADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with equal water twice daily after meals =classical stone breaking herbs 3) PUNARNAVA KASHAYA= 20 ml with equal water twice daily before meals =reduces inflammation, decreases swelling, supports kidney 4) CHANDRAPRABHA VATI= 2 tabs twice daily after meals = helps in urinary disorder and stone expulsion Use this medication along with shilajit to get more effective result and relief HOME REMEDIES 1) BARLEY WATER= boil 1 tbsp barley in 3 glasses water reduce to 2 glasses drink throughout the day 2) COCONUT WATER= 1 glass daily 3) LEMON WATER= morning empty stomach , prevents stone growth DIET -lauki -cucumber -pumpkin -coriander water -3-3.5 L water daily AVOID -spinach -tomato seeds -excess salt -red meat -tea In excess -packaged food -very sour and fermented foods LIFESTYLE ADVICE -do not hold urine -mild walking daily -avoid dehydration -avoid excessive gym/heavy lifting during pain DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU

Shilajit bhasm is good for kidney health., but cannot remove kidney stone. For kidney stone use Gokshuradi guggul 2-0-0 after food with water Tablet cystone 1-0-1 after food with water Punarnava powder 1/2tsp twice daily after food with water. Have coconut water, fresh lime water, barley water Take kulathi dal ( horse gram) daily. Drink adequate amount of water.
