Medicinal values for: blood sugar, wounds, mouth blisters and bed sores, cuts.

  • Fruit: edible fruit (dʒo).
  • Seed: Pulverise the dry seed (rohoɽ dʒaŋ) and mix (mesa) this with a decoction of bark (baklaʔ) and leaves (sakam) individually mixed (mesa) with water (daʔ); this is used for the treatment of dysentery, diarrhoea and indigestion. The dry seed powder (rohoɽ dʒaŋ lubuʔ) is also used to control blood sugar.
  • Leaf: A paste prepared from the leaves (sakam) is applied on cuts and wounds for faster healing. Mouth blisters can be cured by gargling (gaɽgaɽao) frequently with boiled (hõɽeʧ) leaves (sakam) and water (daʔ); even chewing (togoʧ) fresh leaves (baleʧ sakam) provides relief.
