| Title |
“Harida” to cure systemic bacterial infection |
|
|
| Details |
Systemic bacterial infection in animals is characterized by profuse salivation, painful swellings in throat, dewlap, brisket, temperature, depression, discharge from nostril and redness of eye. Mr Padhy takes one dried fruit of “Harida”, Myrobalans (Terminalia chebula Retz.) and grinds it to make a powder. He adds 20 gm of ghee and makes a bolus to feed the cattle. By the third day, the disease is cured. Mr Padhi has treated six cases of such symptoms with success.
The aqueous extract from Terminalia chebula inhibits Streptococcus mutans activity.
