A part of his caption reads, “I am a liver doctor, a trained and registered hepatologist diagnosing and treating liver disease patients since one decade and this is complete and utter BS. Dandelion, is a vegetable that most people consider a weed. It is sometimes used as a salad green. Dandelion can be used in salad. About 100 g of dandelion provides about 10-15% of your daily potassium requirements, at little to no caloric intake. Dandelion can increase urine output and work as a "diuretic" or like a "water pill" as per traditional medicine. But there is a lack of good human evidence for this effect.”


On the work front, last seen in Kushi, co-starring Vijay Deverakonda, Samantha Ruth Prabhu will be next seen in the Indian adaptation of Citadel. Co-starring Varun Dhawan, the web-series will mark her second collaboration with filmmakers Raj & DK after Family Man 2.
