Acacia arabica commonly known as Babool, Gum arabic tree is a medicinal tree which is found throughout the dry and sandy parts of India. 

Babool is also known as the “Healing tree” as all of its parts (bark, root, gum, leaves, pods, seeds) are used for various medicinal purposes.

According to Ayurveda, chewing small pieces of fresh Babool bark is good for managing oral health problems as it strengthens gums and teeth due to its astringent property. Babool also helps in the management of diarrhea by decreasing intestinal motility due to its Keshya property. It also provides relief from cold and cough symptoms as well as sore throat by promoting the removal of sputum from the air passages and eases breathing. Consuming Babool gum powder along with water once a day helps in relieving joint pain due to its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.

Applying a paste of Babool phali powder and coconut oil helps manage oral problems such as plaque formation and gingivitis due to its antibacterial property.
 

An important precaution with Babool is that it should always be used with coconut oil on skin in case you have a hypersensitive skin. Also, excessive intake of Babul powder might cause hyperacidity.
