Tephrosia villosa, also known as Tephrosia Purpurea or Cracca villosa, belongs to the legume family and is considered to be a plant with significant medicinal properties. It is highly valued in traditional Indian, African and other systems of alternative medicine. This plant, which has characteristic lilac flowers and hairy leaves, has its origin in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, Africa and North America. However, today this plant can be found almost anywhere where there is plenty of sun and a humid climate.
Every part of Tephrosia villosa is used in medicinal preparations, including the roots, leaves and flowers. For example, the root is used in liver and kidney treatments, while the leaves are used to treat scars, ulcers and other skin diseases. The plant is also included in some cosmetic products, including skin creams and soaps, due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, some cultures use Tephrosia villosa as a natural pesticide and insecticide in organic farming. The plant has the advantage in this respect that it does not damage crops and is environmentally friendly.
