    If you're looking to lose weight fast, then bottlegourd has to be on your diet list. Bottlegourd juice is not only notorious but helps reduce hunger pangs, helping you to stay on your diet longer. Bottlegourd is also known to cure urinary tract disorders. Bottlegourd juice is also effective in treating diabetes or excessive diarrhea and serve as a thirst quencher during the summer months. Not only that, it also helps prevent fatigue, and keep your body cool. Atudies have shown that bottlegourd is also effective in treating epilepsy, insanity and other nerve disorder disease. And in case you're having a trouble with premature greying, one glass of bottlegourd juice a day, will keep grey hairs away.
