The fruit is highly demulcent, digestive, diuretic, emollient, expectorant, galactagogue, nutritive, tonic and vermifuge. It is also a blood purifier and has mild laxative properties. Vitamins B1 and B2 are also found in figs. B1, Thiamine, is essential in the breakdown of carbohydrates, a process from which we derive energy. Vitamin B1 also maintains the normal function of the nervous system and heart. Vitamin B2, Riboflavin, is essential for cell growth and enzymatic reactions from which the body metabolises proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. B2 also promotes healthy skin, eyes and mucous membranes. A decoction of figs is useful as a demulcent to soothe mucous membranes of the lungs for colds.
