1. Potential use of gulkand to relieve pain 

Gulkand may help to relieve pain. Studies on mice showed that plant ingredients like quercetin and kaempferol might be responsible for reducing pain. Antioxidants like flavonoids present in gulkand may be responsible for relieving pain.¹Â However, further studies are required to know its exact mechanism and effect on humans. You must immediately consult your doctor if you experience unbearable pain for a prolonged period. 

2. Potential use of gulkand for seizures 

The essential oil and flavonoids in rose petals of gulkand may help in the case of seizures. Studies on mice showed that gulkand might delay the start of epileptic seizures (Brain disorder) and decrease the duration of tonic-clonic seizures.¹Â Further studies on humans are required to know the action of gulkand for seizures. However, if you experience seizures, you must immediately consult your doctor instead of self-medicating. 

3. Potential use of gulkand for cough 

Gulkand may be used to relieve cough. Studies on guinea pigs showed that gulkand may reduce the cough. Another study showed the relaxant effect of gulkand may fight against cough. However, further studies are required on humans to check the impact of gulkand against cough.¹Â There is a possibility that a cough can be a symptom of other diseases. Therefore, if you had a cough for several days, you must consult your doctor. 

4. Potential use of gulkand in heart function 

Gulkand may improve heart function. Studies on guinea pigs showed that gulkand might increase the heart rate and contractility of the heart, thereby improving the function of the heart. However, further studies are required to check the effect of gulkand on the human heart.¹Â If you experience any symptoms related to heart disease or have a history of heart disease, you must immediately consult your doctor. 

5. Potential use of gulkand for HIV infections 

Gulkand has many plant compounds present in it and the combined effect of several plant compounds in gulkand may additively act against virus replication.¹Â However, further studies are required to check the effect of gulkand against HIV infections. HIV infection is serious; therefore, you must get diagnosed and get proper treatment instead of self-medicating. 

6. Potential use of gulkand for bacterial infections: 

Gulkand may act against bacterial infections due to its essential oil, rose absolute, and hydrosol. It may show anti-bacterial activity against a wide range of bacteria by inhibiting their growth.¹Â However, further studies are required to check the anti-bacterial activity of gulkand on humans. If you have a bacterial infection, you must consult your doctor instead of treating yourself at home. 

7. Potential use of gulkand for constipation: 

Studies on rats showed that gulkand might increase the water content in faeces and increase the frequency of passing stools. Gulkand may help in relieving constipation.¹Â However, further studies on humans are required to evaluate the effect of gulkand on humans. If you experience constipation for several days, you must consult your doctor and get proper treatment. 

8. Potential use of gulkand to reduce swelling: 

Gulkand may reduce swelling due to the presence of vitamin C, an antioxidant. Studies showed that gulkand might reduce swelling by inhibiting the substances in the body that cause inflammation.²Â However, further studies are required to check the effect of gulkand on inflammation.
