asafoetida (Kaayam) -benefits
Asafoetida is a plant. It has a bad smell and tastes bitter. That probably explains why it is sometimes called “devil’s dung.”
Asafoetida is said to be useful to treat women problems such as sterility, leucorrhoea, difficult and painful menstruation, premature labor, unwanted abortion and sterility.
According to Ayurveda this herb can show amazing results when one suffers with tooth ache. Take small cotton dipped in asafoetida and apply to the aching tooth. Keep the swab for some time and see the results.
