Calamus is an aromatic stimulant and mild tonic. On account of the
volatile oil which is present, it also acts as a carminative, removing
the discomfort caused by flatulence and checking the growth of the
bacteria which give rise to it. It is used to increase the appetite and
benefit digestion. It has a brownish-yellow colour and a pungent, spicy
taste and is used as a stomachic and flavouring agent.
