Fuction : The original usage of buchu by the natives of South Africa is somewhat unclear, as the word buchu is a general term in South Africa for aromatic plant. Some have theorized that it may have been applied topically as an insect repellant. Buchu was popular in the 1800' s as a hangover cure. English patent medicines used it in herbal combinations for treating coughs and colds. There is some conflicting information as to whether buchu leaf should be used for inflammation and infection of the kidneys and urinary tract. However many traditional herbal practitioners still recommend it to this day due to historical testimony. It has also been used for hundreds of years for bladder irritations, as a disinfectant of the urinary tract, and as a diuretic. Buchu is also often used to treat prostate infections. The primary action of the herb is antimicrobial.
