In the Maadentezerrubad, it is thus mentioned: ThewÈr. In the opinion
of the people of India, it removes costiveness, cures affections of
the spleen and spasms of the stomach, and evacuates the bowels and
Fetuek; if its leaves are boiled in water or Dhaie with a little
salt, strained and drank with a little cow's ghee, it will cure all
disorders of wind and vitiated bile, and relax the bowels. The milk
of the Thewer is procured as follows:
Pierce the plant close to the root, and fill the wound during a night
with asafoetida, in the morning remove the gum, and attach a vessel to
receive the exuding milk, and should the juice be required very thin,
a little salt may be added to the asafoetida.
