I have been tagged on this video multiple times. Before I discuss the video further, I request people to please not tag me on such videos. My central nervous system was assaulted and insulted with the highest level of stupidity from whoever this lady is and I am reeling from all that idiocy. But let us discuss, Ash Gourd as a "medicine" - as this lady in the video claim it is. Ash Gourd is Benincasa hispida also called Wax Gourd, White Gourd, Winter Melon or Ash Pumpkin. It is commonly used as a vegetable (when mature) in Asian cuisine. In Nepal & India, they make candies (called Petha) out of it. In some cultures, they make sweet tea from it. It's medicinal uses are all based on traditional beliefs from different regions/cultures without any scientifically proven benefits. In Vietnam, ash gourd and pork soup is thought to increase breast milk production in lactating women. In Assam, India it is used as a natural remedy to treat mild to severe diarrhea. Ash Gourd also has religious aspects attached to it. In India cutting of ash gourd marked with vermillion (a brilliant red pigment made from mercury sulphide) into two, using a sword is considered symbolic to offering human/animal sacrifice to the Gods. In traditional medicine, it is believed to reduce fever, cough, increase urination, burn fat, prevent seizures, and kill bacteria - when a single item (be it herb, drug, supplement) is advertised as useful against many things and with multiple benefits, without a rational explanation for the multiple benefits, it is likely that it is not useful for any of the indications advertised. Every "benefit" promoted for Ash Gourd is based on lab-based, cell and tissue, mice or rats related pre-clinical studies. Meaning, there are no proven benefits of Ash Gourd in prevention or treatment of human diseases. The only underpowered, low quality, poorly designed, poorly controlled study published in a garbage journal, on Ash Gourd in humans showed that it reduced belching and bloating when 200ml was taken daily for 30 days. A simple omeporazole 20mg or timely-meals can do the same cost effectively. Ash Gourd has a chemical profile very similar to many from the "gourd" family. It has nothing special in it. If you consider your cat as an alternative dog, it does not become a dog, its still a cat. Ash Gourd is also rich in oxalates - and can promote kidney stone formation and kidney damage in at risk persons. Ash Gourd is promoted as a "Cool" medicine and diet-fad by everyone else other than real doctors and clinicians. Influencers and self-proclaimed Godmen like Sadhguru promote its benefits on various diseases without citing actual scientific evidence because they are science-illiterates and did not study biology in school. Also, they want you to buy their Ash Gourd merchandise and take your hard earned money - a bank account detox. In the video, the lady confidently proclaims that ash gourd when taken as a juice will detox the body and absorb all toxins in the intestines that is then excreted out as poop. This is normal physiology in humans, that whatever we eat or drink either comes out as piss or poop whether you want it or not. Ash Gourd also turns into piss (it is primarily >90% water) and some of it into poop (it has some fibrous content) - but it does not detox anything and promotes no additional health benefits when taken as juice daily. She also makes a mistake that right after consumption of ash gourd, a laxative effect is felt - which she claims is part of detox. But this is also false. Ash Gourd has no laxative effect. In fact, preclinical studies in rats have shown that it reduces diarrhea and poop frequency. The same effect is not proven in humans. Enjoy Ash Gourd in your diet as part of vegetable portions or enjoy it as candies. Listen to real doctors for proper health and nutrition related information and not Whatsapp aunties who cant spell s.c.i.e.n.c.e.
