This plant is also a good source of Vitamin C.
Indian Sorrel is antimicrobial and antifungal, and has wound healing properties. It is also used to reduce heart rate, for stomach, liver, skin and eye disorders. Crushed leaves are used as antidote for scorpion stings. The sour leaves kindle digestion and therefore helpful in loss of appetite.
