A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of the Valley of Itajai in Brazil explored the diuretic effects of the extract of Polygala cyparissias, a native Brazilian medicinal plant. The study found that the extract increased urinary volume and levels of sodium and chloride, while reducing calcium excretion. When combined with amiloride or hydrochlorothiazide, the extract showed even more promising results. The researchers concluded that this research opens up new possibilities for evaluating the synergistic effects of the extract with commercial drugs. [Extracted from the article]
