Stereospermum is a large tree that grows in India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. Most research about stereospermum has focused on the bark and its potential effects.
People take stereospermum by mouth for indigestion, hiccups, vomiting, diarrhea, pain, fever, diabetes, liver disorders, and asthma.
People apply stereospermum to the skin to heal wounds.
How does work?
Stereospermum might lower blood sugar and cholesterol, reduce pain, reduce swelling, lower fevers, and protect the liver from toxins. It might also protect the brain from damage caused by reduced blood flow or conditions such as Parkinson's disease. Stereospermum seems to have antioxidant effects.

QUESTION
Next to red peppers, you can get the most vitamin C from ________________. See AnswerThere isn't enough reliable information about stereospermum to know if it is safe.
Pregnancy and breast-feeding: There is not enough reliable information about the safety of taking stereospermum if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.The appropriate dose of stereospermum depends on several factors such as the user's age, health, and several other conditions. At this time there is not enough scientific information to determine an appropriate range of doses for stereospermum (in children/in adults). Keep in mind that natural products are not always necessarily safe and dosages can be important. Be sure to follow relevant directions on product labels and consult your pharmacist or physician or other healthcare professional before using.
Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database rates effectiveness based on scientific evidence according to the following scale: Effective, Likely Effective, Possibly Effective, Possibly Ineffective, Likely Ineffective, and Insufficient Evidence to Rate (detailed description of each of the ratings).
