Abstract |
Mr Ramdas (49) is an introvert who loves reading books and making toys. He has studied only up to Standard 11. He has acquired this knowledge from his elders. He has a few acres of land where he cultivates seasonal crops to make a living for his family comprising his wife and son. He is driven by the desire to serve the society voluntarily.
The fruits of marica (Piper nigrum) have great medicinal value. Marica is used both, internally as well as externally. Application of the paste helps in reducing the swelling and pain. It is also salutary in acne, stye and boils. (http://www. herbal cureindia.com/herbs/piper-nigrum.htm)
According to Dudhaji Dhulaji Thakur of Village Nava Distt Banaskantha, Piper nigrum is used in a composition along with Barberia cuspidate for treatment of corneal opacity in animals (Honey Bee, 8(1):15, 1997). |
