Description From Herbal Descriptions by Truman Berst: #3279 CALAMUS ROOT (Acorus calamus) Helpful with most diseases of the stomach, liver, and intestines. Beneficial for hyperacidity associated with the stomach/intestines. Use for hypoglycemia, flatulence, and indigestion. Helpful with quitting smoking because it produces a mild nausea when one tries to smoke after chewing the dried root. The Northwestern Indians kept a piece of the root in their mouth to give endurance when running long distances. Internally, Calamus Root should only be taken in small amounts. Externally, the tincture is used in the treatment of scabies, lice, and crabs. Also, a bath herb to induce tranquility.
