I have had a lot of very good experiences with natural supplements. Ex: I use to have problems with digestion and I bought a product called NuZymes, which are certain combo of enzymes and I never had a problem again. I had a problem with circulation and I took something called natokinase and it worked. There are other experiences but I’ll stop there. Why don’t people believe in natural supplements?

Cornsilk are the silky looking fibers that grow between the corncob and its husk. These are technically the stamen of the corn plant. Cornsilk has several applications and uses in modern medicine. Its active compounds are allantoin, sterols, saponina, hordenine, plant acids as well as Vitamins C and K (potassium).
American Indians have used the entire corn plant for centuries for medicinal purposes. Native Americans used it to treat urinary disorders. Cornsilk has a high concentration of Vitamin K, or potassium, and therefore it is useful in treating urinary infections and ailments.
Cornsilk is often used as a diuretic, which is a drug that increases the rate of urination and will therefore help clear out the urinary tract . This means it is commonly used to treat kidney stones, cystitis and issues with urine flow. It cannot only prevent urinary tract issues, but it can treat the symptoms of someone who already has kidney stones. It does this by soothing the walls of the urinary tract that will relieve pressure on the stone. Because it does not treat the problem it should be used as a supplementary method.
Cornsilk is also used to treat fluid retention and jaundice. Cornsilk also increases the production of bile that improves live function. Other benefits of cornsilk include its ability to lower blood pressure and improve blood-clotting capabilities.
