Eugenia jambos is an antipyretic and antiinfl ammatory herb of Asian folk medicine. All parts of the rose-apple tree have been reported to be used in traditional medicine in the tropics. Several parts of the tree are used medicinally as a tonic or a diuretic. Bark, leaves and seeds are medicinally used. In Indo-China, all parts of the tree are used as a digestive, a stimulant and a remedy for tooth troubles. In Upper Myanmar, the leaves are boiled and the decoction applied to sore eyes. The leaf decoction also serves as a diuretic and expectorant and treatment for rheumatism. An infusion of the leaves is given for fever in Cambodia. Powdered leaves have been rubbed on the bodies of smallpox patients for the cooling effect. A conserve of the fl owers is considered cooling. A sweetened preparation of the fl owers is believed to reduce fever. The seeds are employed against diarrhoea, dysentery and catarrh. In El Salvador and Nicaragua, an infusion of roasted, powdered seeds is employed as a remedy for diabetics. In Colombian folk medicine, the seeds are believed to have an anaesthetic property. The bark contains 7–12.4% tannin and has emetic and cathartic properties. The decoction of the bark is administered to relieve asthma, bronchitis and hoarseness. Cuban people believe that the root is an effective remedy for epilepsy. [T.K. Lim, Edible Medicinal And Non-Medicinal Plants: Volume 3, Fruits]

Fruit—used in liver complaints. Bark—astringent, antidiarrhoeal, antidysenteric. Leaves—astringent, anti-inflammatory. The juice of fresh fruit contains alanine, aspartic acid, cystine or cysteine, glutamine, threonine and tyrosine.The essential oil, obtained from leaves, is a good source of dl-alpha-pinene In Brazil, a decoction of dry leaves is given in diabetes. Aerial parts exhibit diuretic activity  [Indian Medicinal Plants An Illustrated Dictionary]
