The fruit is alterative, antiseptic, aphrodisiac, a brain tonic, cholagogue, demulscent, emollient, expectorant, mildly laxative, nervine and possesses stimulant properties. Because the fruit is similar in shape and appearance to a human brain, it has traditionally been believed that eating it would help to improve concentration and memory.
