Arabic gum and Garad
This is a photo of arabic gum and garad (Acacia Nilotica Pods)being burned like candles. Usually to make the house smell nice and eliminate bad odors we used other kinds of perfumed wood, however because of their strong medicinal and anti-viral properties my mom likes to burn arabic gum and garad regularly which produce a really strong and not very pleasant smell. Many people think that these are just traditional remedies, however there has been research done which shows their biochemical benefits.
