Acorus calamus is a semiaquatic, perennial, aromatic herb with creeping rhizomes, native to northern temperate and subtropical regions of Asia, North America, and Europe. The plant prefers swampy or marshy habitats. It has grass-like or sword-shaped, long slender leaves that fan out from a pinkish base and grow up to 1.5 m in length. The slightly curved spadix is crowded with small yellowish-green to brown flowers. In the Ayurvedic system of medicine, the rhizomes are considered to possess aromatic, stimulant, bitter tonic, emetic, expectorant, emmenagogue, aphrodisiac, laxative, diuretic, antispasmodic, carminative, and anthelmintic properties. The tribals in the Garhwal region of the Himalayas take a decoction of the rhizome as a non-alcoholic beverage. The fresh rhizomes are chewed to prevent intoxication from alcohol. Since antiquity, AC rhizome has been used for medicinal baths, in incense, and for tea.
