$\"spondylosis\"$ <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n
The worst diet habits with the western lifestyle and continuous work in front of laptops are the major reasons for spondylosis. Trayodashang guggulu may be used against spondylosis. A study ^{2<\/sup><\/a> by Sawant et al. in 2017 showed that Trayodashang guggulu might be beneficial for cervical spondylosis. Constituents like Shatavari, Ashwagandha and Guduchi are rejuvenators and may give stability to the muscles (dhatus). Whereas babbul acts on bones (asthidhatwagni) and may provide firmness. However, further studies are required to check if trayodashang guggulu may help in the case of cervical spondylosis. Therefore, you must consult your doctor if you experience any symptoms of cervical spondylosis. Do not self-medicate.\u00a0<\/p>}
