If gokhrus are consumed for a long time, then it can cause problems related to the prostate gland. Also, people suffering from breast and prostate cancer should not consume Gokhru.
Pregnant or breastfeeding a child, you should not consume it because its effect is vital due to possible problems.
Children who are suffering from problems of diabetes or high blood pressure should consume it only after consulting a doctor.
If consumed excessively, it can cause jaundice or kidney problems. Because of this, the kidneys make more urine than usual, burdening the kidneys.
