kuppaimeni health benefits

The reason it is called “Kuppaimeni Keerai | குப்பைமேனி” in Tamil is because it is a plant that grows everywhere like weed and needs no maintenance at all. It is also called ” பூனை  வணங்கி | பூனை மயக்கி” in Tamil because the plants have a strong effect on cats.

kuppaimeni medicinal usesKuppaimeni Traditional Uses:

Traditionally kuppaimeni is used to get rid of unwanted hair growth, for treating skin problems like pimples, psoriasis and eczema, to get rid of cough and cold, to treat intestinal worms and also for treating piles.

On the first onset of rains, you will find kuppaimeni plants propping up all over the place. Since it is now raining continuously here, the whole farm is filled with kuppaimeni plants | kuppaimeni keerai.

Though in some parts of the world, kuppaimeni keerai is consumed regularly as part of the diet, here in our village we normally don’t use it in day to day cooking. We only use it in remedies, especially we use it extensively for treating skin diseases.

Kuppaimeni Side Effects & Toxicity: 

Kuppaimeni has been proven to have low toxicity, in one research done on rats, they were given different doses ranging from 100 mg per kg to 500 mg per kg for 30 days and no toxicity was observed.

But people who have glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency should not consume kuppaimeni as it can lead to hemolysis. Also kuppaimeni has anti fertility properties so if you are planning on pregnancy, don’t internally consume kuppaimeni. You can read the study that supports this claim here.

Kuppaimeni Powder:

If you can’t get fresh kuppaimeni plants you can use kuppaimeni powder instead. Kuppaimeni powder is available in all nattu marunthu kadai in Tamil Nadu. You can also order kuppaimeni powder easily through online shops.

If you have access to fresh kuppaimeni plants, you can also make your own kuppaimeni powder. To make kuppaimeni powder, sun dry kuppaimeni leaves under hot sun till crisp and then powder in a dry mixer. Sieve to get a fine powder and store it in an airtight bottle….

5 Top Medicinal Uses & Health Benefits Of Kuppaimeni:

1. Kuppaimeni Oil For Skin Diseases:

kuppaimeni powder uses

To make kuppaimeni oil, take fresh kuppaimeni leaves, wash and grind it in mixer to a smooth paste. Once it is ground, strain it using a strainer.

Now take equal quantity coconut oil and little bit of organic turmeric powder in a pan. Start heating it, it will start sizzling immediately.

Once the sizzling sound stops and a nice aroma comes, switch off, cool and strain. Pour this oil in a glass bottle and use it regularly to treat eczema, psoriasis, all minor skin infections, wounds, scrapes and cuts.

 2. Kuppaimeni For Permanent Hair Removal: 

kuppaimeni for hair removal

Kuppaimeni mixed with turmeric powder and korai kizhangu powder is amazing for hair removal. We usually apply this paste all over the face, wait for it to almost dry and then start rubbing in a circular motion.

Doing this regularly will stunt facial hair growth and with regular usage the existing facial hair also will fall off. The time it takes to remove facial hair will vary from person to person as it largely depends on how coarse the facial hair is.

 3. Kuppaimeni For Wound Healing:

kuppaimeni for skin problems

Like I mentioned above kuppaimeni has been proven to  be very effective for wound healing. We have kuppaimeni plants growing all over our place. So any time we get hurt, we just collect the leaves and wash it under running water to remove any dirt.

Now take the leaves in a mortar and pestle and pound it nicely to get a coarse paste. Apply this paste as a poultice on the affected area and tie it with a thin cloth to secure it. Leave it on for a few hours before removing it.

4. Kuppaimeni For Cold & Cough: 

kuppaimeni for cough and cold

Kuppaimeni decoction when had during cold and cough will greatly help treat it. For the remedy, take a handful of fresh kuppaimeni leaves after washing it well in a pot along with a cup of water.

Now boil the liquid till the colour of the water changes and the water reduces in half. Now take 1/4 cup of this liquid to treat cold and cough. This liquid can be also used to get rid of intestinal worms too.

But please remember that kuppaimeni has anti fertility properties so if you are trying for a baby please don’t use this remedy.

5. Kuppaimeni Face Pack For Acne:

kuppaimeni face pack for pimples

Kuppaimeni is one of the best ingredients to use for skin care as it has wonderful anti bacterial properties. It really does wonders to skin, you can use either fresh leaf paste or kuppaimeni powder available in the shops.

Both will work really well. For the face pack, take 1 tsp of kuppaimeni powder in a bowl, add in 1/4 tsp of kasturi turmeric powder to it. Now add enough rice water to form a paste and apply it as a face pack.

Both kasturi turmeric and kuppaimeni effectively treats acne and rice water is very soothing to apply on inflamed, acne prone skin. If you are suffering from acne, I would highly recommend this pack.

      I would suggest including turmeric too as the combination of these ingredients is very effective. The time it takes depends on the amount of facial hair but I would suggest continuing with the application even if it takes months of regular application as this paste also prevents skin blemishes…

      Good Morning, As far as I know, there are 2 ways to get rid of facial hair, one is alum powder + rose water mixture and the other is nagarmotha + turmeric paste recipe from the blog. Both these methods work but it takes daily application for months together to see results and the results vary depending the coarseness of the facial hair…

      July 13, 2016 / 8:55 am

      Alum is called padaikaram in Tamil, the white block that is used by men after shaving. Nagarmotha is called korai kilangu and you can find it in herb shops or you can order it online too. Kuppaimeni and turmeric will work well for removing facial hair…

      Kuppaimeni is very good for treating cold. We have never used kuppaimeni for long duration's of time but kuppaimeni has low toxicity and since you are giving only a pinch it will do no harm. But gradually reduce the usage once he gets better…

    I am not sure about using Kuppameni. You can mix Apple Cedar Vinegar with Water in equal parts and use it. It is really effective. You can use for any sort of skin infections and you will see the result in 15 days. But, be prepared to get use of the unbearable smell. You can use it in the night and wash it in the morning. Plain water is sufficient to wash. You can use it for dandruff treatment also. Apple Cedar Vinegar is available in all departmental store or in Amazon.

    It can be eaten as greens. If t can be cooked alone or mixed with other veggies. Growing up I remember the folks steaming in water and the extract thrown away then the veggies gets cooked . Today I cook it without steaming first.
