Giloy, also called guduchi, is one of the most popular herbs in Ayurveda. For centuries, it has been used as a natural remedy for boosting immunity, improving digestion, reducing fever, and promoting overall health. People often consume it as giloy juice, giloy powder, or in supplement form. While it has been praised as a healing plant, recent medical findings suggest that giloy may not be as safe as once believed. According to a TOI report, leading hepatologist Dr. Cyriac Abby Philips, known as The Liver Doc, has warned that giloy can cause serious liver damage in certain people. He explained that the herb may trigger immune-mediated liver injury, which can harm the body instead of healing it.
