PEEPAL TREE AND PREGNANCY

According to our scriptures, ancestors, and some Vedas. Peepal tree is linked with Pregnancy and baby formation. How can a tree enhance baby formation?? 

So we'll have a deep dig on this... 

PEEPAL TREE: 

Peepal tree is commonly found in a normal Indian locality like streets temples etc. We guess it be a commonly grown tree but the fact is that it is completely different from its growth to its functions. So before getting on to the scientific concepts let us see how special was this peepal tree in the aspect of our ancestors.

ANCESTORS VIEW:

According to our ancestors, the peepal tree was so sacred. They have made so many medicinal formulations with peepal trees. And the most important point to be noticed is that our ancestors have instructed newly married couples to tie cradles onto the branches of peepal trees for the baby formation and advised pregnant ladies to walk around neem and peepal tree together for healthy baby birth.

So these were the thoughts of our ancestors but don't they look weird. How come?? walking around a tree result in pregnancy?? It is unbelievable. But this peepal tree has some unique specialty let's peek onto it. 

WHY SO SPECIAL?? 

So basically all the trees will release oxygen in the morning and release out carbon dioxide at night times. Peepal trees can uptake CO² always, during the night as well as morning. This is because of photosynthesis called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) that happens in them. Photosynthesis occurs in 3 ways: Cam, c3, and c4 pathways. Cam is common in desert plants. C3 and C4 are found in land plants. 

CRASSULACEAN ACID METABOLISM:

Peepal trees can uptake CO² during the night as well as they perform a type of photosynthesis called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism. CAM is one of the three types of photosynthesis pathways occurring commonly in plants. 

HEMI - EPIPHYTE:

The peepal tree is a hemi-epiphyte. The seeds germinate and grow as an epiphyte on other trees and then when the host tree dies, they establish on the soil.  

OXYGEN:

Peepal tree produces Oxygen all the time i.e. 24x7 and it is the most oxygen-producing tree in India, thus planting a peepal tree in your house can be good for cleaning the air around. Oxygen plays an important role in body functioning. It acts as fuel for our bodies. And good oxygen supplement is more important for improved brain function which will result in proper hormonal secretions. So hormonal secretions are very much important to control various functions.

PREGNANCY:

Some hormones also facilitate pregnancy.   Proper oxygen flow can enhance hormonal secretion which also facilitates pregnancy. And similarly, pregnant ladies require 20% extra oxygen because the baby inside the womb takes oxygen only through the mother. This improves the expectant mother's health and will also be very beneficial for the baby's health. Some countries even provide oxygen cylinders for pregnant women for increasing oxygen supplements.  During pregnancy, oxygen helps in Improving mental and physical health. Avoid pregnancy complications. Helps in relaxing and rejuvenating.  Helps in enhancing immunity. So it would be better to stay aside peepal tree which provides uninterrupted oxygen supply. 

PEEPAL TREE AND NEEM TREE:

A new article states that the Peepal tree and neem tree together create a magnetic field that influences the body tissues and organs which could stimulate Follicle Stimulating Hormone and Luteinizing Hormones that help in the reproductive process. But there isn't any experimental evidence yet and scientists are still working on it.
