The Chinese have used Cornsilk successfully to treat swelling caused by kidney disease. Cornsilk is an effective diuretic and is useful for getting rid of excess water. A cardiac stimulant and a remedy for kidney and bladder problems. In a three-month study of 12 people with kidney disease, water retention disappeared in nine people and mostly disappeared in two others. They were given about two ounces of dry Cornsilk twice a day. Cornsilk is both mild and non-toxic, and is contained in
several over-the-counter (OTC) type diuretic products in Europe and America
(where it use to be an officially recognized medicinal agent), and is
still popular in China. Most herbalists around the
world agree that Cornsilk directly reduces painful symptoms and swelling due
to several inflammatory conditions, including cystitis, pyelitis, oligouria,
hepatitis, and all edematous conditions.
