Corn silk includes the shiny, thread-like strands that form the layer between the corn husk and ear. They are an important part of the reproductive system of the vegetable, crucial for crop pollination. They ensure the pollen that fertilizes the cob, permitting kernels to grow. Like the husk, corn silk also covers the kernels and protects the ear of corn from drying out, keeping it sweet. The scientific name of Cornsilk is Stigms Maydis.

Health benefits:
Corn Hair Keeps Your Urinary System Healthy:
Corn silk extract can be used as a strong diuretic, increasing, hence, the frequency of urination. Increased flow of urine can wash away bacteria that may cause UTIs and other bladder infections. And if you do get a UTI or bladder infection, corn silk extract soothes inflammation to ease pain.
What's more, frequent urination can help strengthen your bladder. Corn silk extract or teas are recommended at times by medical professionals for children with bedwetting and people experiencing urinary incontinence. Corn silk may also help to avoid kidney stones and counteract the harmful effects on the kidneys of various medicines and chemotherapy/radiotherapy.
Maize Hair Fights inflammation:
This flavonoid and plant pigment is responsible for the green, light green, yellow, brown, or red coloration of corn silks and, apart from this coloration, is also an antioxidant. Corn silk has the same amount of antioxidant value as vitamin C. Antioxidants work against inflammation and the results of aging, as well as against diseases like cancer and diabetes.
Stigma Maydis Lowers Blood Sugar:
Corn silk extracts are part of both Native American and traditional Chinese medicine to manage diabetes. According to one study, the extract may lower the blood sugar level and help prevent complications like diabetes-related neuropathy, or nerve damage. Other studies indicate that corn silk extracts may retard the absorption of starchy foods within your body, preventing blood sugar spikes.
Corn Hair Enhances Cholesterol Levels:
Flavonoids from corn silk improve your numbers in cholesterol by reducing triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins, LDL. "These bad forms of cholesterol cause plaque deposits to harden inside your arteries, increasing your risk for heart attacks and strokes.
Corn Silk Eye pressure relief:
A study reported a decrease in intraocular pressure in hypertensive individuals who ingested levels of corn silk extract. This was due to the diuretic properties of elevated potassium levels in corn silk supplementation in high doses.
