Crataeva nurvala
An important Ayurvedic herb for urinary health; the bark is highly effective for treating urinary calculi, BPH, and urinary tract infections.
Crataeva nurvala (Varuna) bark is an Ayurvedic herb traditionally used for urinary tract health, particularly in managing kidney stones, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and urinary tract infections. Its key active compounds include triterpenoids such as lupeol, betulinic acid, and friedelin, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory, anti-urolithiatic, and antimicrobial properties. Modern research supports its use in reducing stone formation and improving urinary symptoms.
The anti-urolithiatic action of Varuna bark is primarily mediated by lupeol and betulinic acid, which inhibit calcium oxalate crystallization and aggregation, and reduce urinary oxalate excretion. These compounds also exert anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathways, thereby alleviating urinary tract inflammation. Additionally, the bark's diuretic and antimicrobial activities help flush out pathogens and prevent infection, while tannins provide astringent effects that may strengthen bladder tissues and reduce prostate inflammation in BPH.
