Phyllanthus Niruri (Tamalaki)

Phyllanthus Niruri (Tamalaki) is a widespread tropical plant commonly found in coastal areas, known by the common name, gale of the wind, stonebreaker or seed-under-leaf. It is a relative of the spurges, belonging to the genus Phyllanthus of the family Phyllanthaceae. Phyllanthus niruri, also known as Bhumyamalaki, Keezhanelli (Malayalam, Tamil) has been used in Ayurveda, Siddha for problems of the stomach, genitourinary system, liver, kidney, and spleen, and to treat chronic fever. The juice of the leaves, along with the green pods, is used as a treatment for jaundice in tamil nadu.

Amazonian tribes historically used Phyllanthus niruri to treat kidney stones and gallstones, naming it Chanca piedra or Quebra-pedra, respectively, Spanish and Portuguese terms for stonebreaker. Phyllanthus niruri is nowadays marketed as an herbal remedy under the name Chanca piedra.
