A plant that gets the blessing of Lord Shiva's tears

The fruit with the Latin name Elaeocarpus sphaericus Schum has an upright and round brown tree trunk. In Indonesian this fruit is called jenitri fruit or also known as ganitri. However, it has not been widely used by the Indonesian people for herbal health. In fact, the fruit produced from seed plants whose trees can reach 25-30 meters has many properties or benefits. Jenitri fruit in Indonesia has not been widely used for the medicinal or herbal medicine industry. Most people in Indonesia use the wood of the jenitri tree as a raw material for musical instruments, such as guitars and pianos. Meanwhile, the seeds of the jenitri fruit are used to make bracelets, necklaces and prayer beads.

Jenitri fruit is now becoming a new trend in jewelry, especially the seeds of the jenitri fruit are processed into a handicraft product or made into jewelry for bracelets, necklaces or prayer beads. In India, the jenitri tree, which is also called the rudraksha plant, is believed to be a plant that receives the blessings of Lord Shiva's tears. However, India is not a country that produces this fruit. Jenitri fruit is actually produced in Indonesia, especially in Central Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan and Bali.

Seeing this potential, Jenitri can be said to have an increasingly promising export potential. What's more, if the jenitri has a lot of mukhi, the price will be even more expensive and can be a big opportunity for local and foreign business people.

Jenitri fruit from Indonesia has been known to have a unique pattern that has become a bone of contention for local and foreign markets, such as India, China, and Nepal. The current trend of jenitri that is currently popular is the grooved and plain model.

Quoted from various media in India, jenitri seeds are often used as one of the offerings in cremation ceremonies. Several studies have also stated that jenitri fruit skin contains antioxidant substances of the anthocyanin type, and secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, carbohydrates, proteins, tannins, phytosterols, fats, and alkaloids. So if based on these ingredients, it is certain that there are benefits of jenitri fruit for health, as long as it is used properly and correctly.

Some of the health benefits of the efficacy of jenitri fruit are reducing diarrhea symptoms and normalizing organ function. Maybe from this point of view the Indian people believe that the jenitri tree is one of the plants that has received the blessings of Lord Shiva's tears where it is also believed that the jenitri can relieve stress and anxiety, prevent inflammation in the body. In addition, other benefits are also able to relieve pain and lower blood sugar levels.
