Application/Function: Bamboo is used in Chinese medicine for
treating infections. It is also a low calorie source of potassium.
It has also been known for its sweet taste and good source of
nutrients. In Ayurveda, the Indian system of traditional medicine,
the silicious concretion found in the culms of the bamboo stem is
called banslochan. It is known as tabashir or tawashir in
Unani-Tibb the Indo-Persian system of Medicine. In English this
concretion is called "bamboo manna". This concretion is said to be
a tonic for the respiratory diseases. This concretion, which was
earlier obtained from Melocanna bambusoides is very hard to get now
and has been largely replaced by synthetic silcic acid. In most
Indian literature, Bambusa arundinacea is described as the source
of bamboo manna. (Puri, ***3).
