A-Retic, provided by Douglas Laboratories, is a carefully formulated blend of herbs specially designed as a water retention support formula.*
A-Retic is a synergistic combination of several herbs including uva ursi, buchu and juniper berries to help support water retention in the body. Juniper berries can have diuretic properties, as well as antispasmolytic effects on smooth muscle. It was also used by the Zuni Indians to assist in childbirth and stimulate menstruation, and by American nineteenth-century herbalists to support the cardiovascular function and the urinary tract. Buchu leaves and oil of buchu were used by the indigenous people of South Africa for hundreds of years. The medicinal use of buchu was taken up by the early Dutch settlers and brought to Europe. Buchu preparations have been traditionally used as diuretics. Uva Ursi (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi), also known as bearberry, is a low-lying evergreen shrub found in Canada, Europe, and Asia. It has been used traditionally as a diuretic, astringent and urinary antiseptic for several hundred years.*
