MARVELLOUS XANTHOCARPUM
Been on a medical camp recently , where there was abundance of this prickly perennial - Solanum Xanthocarpum aka Kantakari .Thought of giving some insight about the medicinal value of this herb. The clinical efficacy of the root of Solanum Xanthocarpum in mild to moderate bronchial asthma has been proved by PEFR ( Peak Expiratory Flow Rate ) and clinical assessment of patients . Studies have confirmed that it produces progressive improvement in ventilatory function of asthmatic individuals. This is only the tip of the iceberg , now I shall come forward with some more benefits of the almighty xanthocarpum.
A WORD ON RPL - RECURRENT PREGNANACY LOSS
This is a condition where there is three or more consecutive spontaneous loss of pregnancies. Inspite of the advances made in modern medical science, about 43 % of such pregnancy losses are due to unknown causes.Solanum xanthocarpum, Solanum indicus( Ringimul )along with few other herbs are found to play an important role in reducing RPL because of its immunomodulatory , antimicrobial and antioxidant actions leading to successful pregnancy .
Hope this information will be valuable to infertile couples who lost a precious child because of autoimmunity of mother against foetus leading to unsuccessful outcome of pregnancy.

THE DOSHA QUIZ
Today I appeared punctually at the spot ,for the Siddha Awareness Camp that was held at rural area as part of the NSS programme of the nearby Ladies college. Instead of overloading the students with different nuances found in the text of Siddha Medicine ,the basic concepts like Tridosha theory,Panchabootha Pancheekarana,Seven elements,Seven body types was outlined.Then few more minutes was spent on ellucidating these concepts. Finally we arrived at the interesting part of the programme - THE DOSHA QUIZ - all students were given a multiple choice questionnaire with boxes to tick near the appropriate answers.When the students were through with it, they were edified about how to interpret the answers they got on their sheets. Although the best way to analyse a person's constitution is only by pulse diagnosis,this dosha quiz nonetheless served to arouse the curiosity of students about their body type.They all had smiling faces at the end of the programme ,since now they had a nugget of advice about their constitution .
I thanked the students and organisers profusely for providing me this oppurtinity and left the session with the gratification that I was able to impart some knowledge among them in the limited time that was offered.

MEDICAL CAMP IN VILLAGE
Hi all,
Been to a village about 50 km from my place for creating awareness among school going children regarding Childhood Anaemia and how debilitating it could be to growing children . Although schools are a microcosm of the larger society and since teachers alone cannot edify the minds of the pupils ,volunteers can certainly make significant contributions ..Being a stickler for nutrition and cleanliness , I was able to relate to kids in simple words using visual means to educate them about the importance of nutrients in food we consume and sanitary measures to be followed.. ..if it's true that a country's backbone is the villages in it , then it sounds sensible that we try to educate them in this aspect..This is the work which we wish to do with compassion. I feel that my country has given me lots selflessly, in terms of culture and heritage..It's now high time to pay back my Mother India, little by little ..I am not a politician, I cannot create any revolution or pass any resolution..but I can sow a seed here and there in the hope that one day it grows to a big tree…

To start with I shall post some interesting information on herbs.So,along with my followers I too will learn something of value from time to time.Here comes the news .......
Coriander acts as diuretic :
how are we going to make this home remedy ?
Coriandrum sativum is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!
It is very easy, first take a handful of coriander seeds.
Then put it in a pot and pour clean water , add some cumin seeds to it and boil it for ten minutes and let it cool down and then filter it .Now it is ready for consumption.
Drink one glass daily , since it has mild anxiolytic effect too you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.
