Guest guest Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Guggulu has other properties than the ones below. One day about 15 years ago, I was carrying a computer and slipped on ice. Not wanting to drop the computer, I landed on my elbow and had bone chips for months. I asked an Ayurvedic doctor about this. He gave me some kaishore guggulu. Within 2 weeks, the chips were gone. I would suggest getting a guggulu formulation for the person's dosha. I know 2 places in the US. www.bazaarofindia.com www.banyanbotanicals.com GB > > Who takes Guggul- and where do you buy it? > > info from a website: http://www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/69249.cfm > > " studies suggest that guggulsterone, a sterol from guggul, may have anti-tumor properties, inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in a variety of tumor cells including chemotherapy-resistant cells.
