"Dahyabhai of village Raiyali uses the powder of the seeds of Tamarindus indica to cure cattle of diarrhoea. A fine powder of 500 g of tamarind seeds is mixed with half the quantity of water and fed to the cattle. The mixture is administered for five or six days. This practice has been followed for generations in this village and, according to Dahyabhai, yields very good results. (NAPDB: The dry fruit pulp of Tamarindus indica is used in the human adult for treating diarrhoea and blood dysentery.
