  • Safety and Precautions: While Gudmaar is generally considered safe for most people, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new herbal remedy, especially for those with pre-existing health conditions or those taking other medications. It is also recommended to avoid excessive use to prevent potential side effects.

 

गुडमार का पौधा (मधुनाशिनी वृक्ष)

एक औषधीय पौधा है , यह बेल (लता) के रूप में होता है। इसकी पत्ती को खा लेने पर किसी भी मीठी चीज का स्वाद लगभग एक घंटे तक के लिए समाप्त हो जाता है। इसे खाने के बाद गुड़ या चीनी की मिठास खत्म हो जाती है और वह खाने पर रेत के समान लगती है। इस विशेषता के कारण स्थानीय लोग इसे गुड़मार के नाम से पुकारते हैं। मधुमेह में इसका उपयोग प्रायः किया जाता है।
