Benefits of mombin
Peru, again. We wonder if there is a tree growing there that has no benefits for our bodies. Ubos is yet another of these wonders, and we are glad it is becoming known in our country.
The Spanish plum, as the Ubos is sometimes called, loves dry places in tropical regions. Therefore, it is not a problem to find it in the Caribbean or the Philippines, for example. However, it is mainly found in South America - in Peru and Brazil.
It is a relatively tall tree that produces the oval-shaped fruit that gave it its plum nickname. The fruit can be eaten fresh, but it is necessary to leave it until it is ripe - otherwise, you will not be too impressed by the taste. The seeds are also toxic, so be careful.
In addition to the fruit, the leaves and bark of the Ubos can also be processed. The bark (in particular) has been popular lately, and you can find it in dried and chopped form here. However, the bark should be removed gently so as not to damage the tree. We recommend that you buy only from verified producers.
It is safe to use, and you can drink the prepared infusion or use it as a compress. However, pregnant and breastfeeding women should avoid Ubos.
