Vernacular Names & Parts Used
Gunja Leaves, botanically classified as Abrus Precatorius Linn., are commonly known as Gunja Patta, Chanoti Leaves, and Chrimitti Patti across different regions of India. The mature green leaves (Patra) are the primary part used and are carefully dried to retain their natural characteristics for traditional and Ayurvedic applications.
Ayurvedic Properties & Common Uses
According to classical Ayurvedic texts, Gunja is described as a potent and controlled-use herb, possessing Tikta (bitter) and Kashaya (astringent) rasa, with Ushna (heating) virya. The leaves are traditionally used externally in Ayurvedic practices for localized applications, herbal pastes, and oil preparations, always under expert supervision.
Ayurvedic literature emphasizes Shodhana (purification) and precise processing before any therapeutic use. Gunja Leaves are mainly incorporated into classical formulations, lepa (herbal pastes), and medicated oils, highlighting the importance of traditional knowledge, controlled dosage, and practitioner guidance.
