Natural Factors HerbalFactors Diuretic Formula is a four-herb capsule made with bearberry, dandelion leaf, juniper berry and parsley root. Used in Traditional Herbal Medicine to increase flow of urine.
What is in Diuretic Formula?
Bearberry, also known as uva-ursi, is a low evergreen shrub of northern forests. Its leaf is included as a 4:1 extract standardized to 10% arbutin. Dandelion leaf and juniper berry are 4:1 extracts too, meaning four parts of plant material are concentrated into one part of extract. Parsley root, the pale taproot of the common kitchen herb, rounds out the capsule.
Key features
100 mg bearberry leaf 4:1 extract (10% arbutin) per capsule
All four plants have a history in European herbal traditions, where they were often brewed together as teas. A capsule delivers the same herbs in fixed amounts, with no steeping and no bitter taste.
Other Ingredients: Rice starch, gelatin capsule (gelatin, purified water).
Dosage: 1–2 capsules 3 times daily, a few hours before or after taking other medications or health products, or as directed by a health care practitioner. For occasional use only. Consult a health care practitioner for use beyond 1 week.

Diuretics can be helpful.
I have taken this product on and off for the last seven years. I have added it to my regular subscription from vitasave.ca. It is helpful to rotate taking products on and off and changing formulas. This formula helps with kidney and urinary track infections and helps to regulate water retention. I do like natural factors products. I especially like veggie cats as opposed to press pills. I hope this helps.

Nature water pill
This product is good for your kidneys and it helps with this area. If you have high blood pressure and would like to take a natural diuretic, this is a really good one. My mother who’s 92 has taken it I’ll take it. My husband is taken it. I find this so much more natural way to get out water rather than the drug Lasix which screws with your potassium. I’ve use this product on and off for the last seven years. I trust natural factors and many of their products, and this is one of them. Hope this helps.

Easy purchase
All was good. Website was easy to follow. The only concern I had was I had hoped to get a discount with a large purchase. I would have purchased more if there was a discount available. Other than that, all was good.
