Americans use the plants in a variety of ways. The most prominent medicinal treatment is for kidney problems. In Mexico, Cuba, Hispaniola, and the Turks and Caicos Islands the plants are considered diuretic. In Mexico the roots are used, in Cuba the leaves, and in the Turks and Caicos the seeds. Each area has its own variant of medicinal preparations, including decoctions of roots and leaves. Others use the seeds, which are parched, ground like coffee, and boiled. The preparation in each area, however, is prescribed for swelling of the legs and feet associated with kidney trouble. This same decoction is used to treat rheumatism and arthritis in Argentina. The same or similar preparations are given in Mexico as sudorifics, emetics, purgatives, diaphoretics, and rubifacients in rheum. Cubans also use it as a sudorific (Roig 1945). In Hispaniola, the same basic decoction, either boiled or not, is also considered a refreshing drink. Similarly, in Dominica, the leaves are crushed in water by Caribs to make a refreshing and cooling drink. People in Hispaniola also use the leaves and stems in emollient poultices for abscesses and sores. In Trinidad, leaves are used as an infusion for “bich” (lower intestine disease) and indigestion. [Florida Ethnobotany]

Lodhas, Mundas, Oraons use root and leaves in the treatment of some diseases. The species is ti~ed in unani and allopathic systems of medicine. [Herbal Cures: Traditional Approach]

 In Nigeria the leaves are sometimes rubbed on the skin for the treatment of skin eruptions, itch, etc. or applied as a poultice to swellings. The juice of the stem is dropped in the eye to treat ophthalmia. The leaf and root are used as a remedy for nervous diseases in many countries. After eating the seeds in quantity children may develop epileptiform convulsions. Stigmasterol, probably in the form of a glycoside, and quebrachitol have been isolated from the air-dried plant in India and proanthocyanidin and apigenin have been isolated from an alcoholic extract of the. The water-soluble fraction of a dried alcoholic extract of the seeds produced an initial depression followed by marked stimulation in the isolated frog heart preparation.

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.
