     PRACTICAL USES OF AYAPANA

 1. Ayapan has a general detoxifying effect on the body. It helps revive
    liver function and cleanse all body organs. This way it helps to
    rejuvenate the cells and tissues of the body, increasing the
    longevity and vitality of the body.
 2. Ayapan has antiseptic properties which help in healing wounds and
    preventing formation of ulcerations.
 3. When consumed orally it helps prevent bleeding in any part of the
    body. It also helps heal ulceration anywhere inside the gut,
    preventing bleeding. It can therefore be very helpful in diseases
    like gastric and duodenal ulcers, Crohn’s disease, IBS,
    haemorrhoids, anal fistula etc.
 4. Ayapan is great for clearing out the bowels; it helps prevent
    colitis and inflammation in the intestines due to its pitta shamak
    properties. When the intestines are clear and healthy, skin
    condition improves and abdominal problems like acidity, gastritis
    and bloating can be easily relieved. Even in cases of large
    abdominal distension such as ascites, it can be given to the patient.
 5. Ayapan leaves have properties that can manage fever, cough and cold
    naturally.
 6. Whole parts of the plant including the stem, leaves and roots can be
    made into a decoction to relieve malarial fever.
 7. For insect bites, wounds and bleeding both internal or external,
    sterile paste of Ayapan leaves can be very handy.
 8. Oral health problems like gingivitis and stomatitis can be relieved
    with the use of fresh juice of the leaves of this plant.
 9. Ayapan is a great option for managing menstrual irregularities in
    females. This property of the herb is attributed to its pitta
    pacifying effects on the body. The general cooling effect of the
    herb helps regulate the hormonal imbalance and strengthens the
    female reproductive system.
10. Laboratory studies conducted on the leaf extracts of this plant have
    shown a considerable degree of anti – fungal and anti –microbial
    effects.


    A WORD OF CAUTION

Ayapan should be avoided by people taking blood thinner. The leaves
contain a highly aromatic chemical known as coumarin which has blood
thinning and anti – coagulant properties. People on blood thinner can
develop an increased risk of bleeding or stroke in such a case.

The herb has a highly laxative effect because of which many people may
develop diarrhoea or vomiting with its use.
