About Arasam Pattai (Sacred Fig Bark):
Ficus religiosa, known as the Sacred Fig, is a large dry-season deciduous or semi-evergreen tree that can grow up to 30 meters (98 feet) tall with a trunk diameter of up to 3 meters. The bark is found in flat or slightly curved pieces, varying from 1.0-2.5 cm or more in thickness. The outer surface is brown or ash-colored, uneven due to exfoliation of cork, while the inner surface is smooth and somewhat brownish, fractured, and fibrous. The bark mainly contains tannins. According to Ayurveda, every part of the peepal tree – the leaf, bark, shoot, seeds, and fruit – has several medicinal benefits and has been used since ancient times for curing many diseases.
