Indian name: Salep misri , shala misriri

Herbal Usage: In India, the tubers of Anacamptis laxiflora were historically used for various medicinal purposes. They were believed to have expectorant properties, which means they were used to facilitate the removal of mucus from the respiratory tract, helping with coughs and respiratory issues. Additionally, the tubers were considered to be astringent, which means they had the ability to constrict body tissues, and were used for wound healing and to treat diarrhea. Furthermore, the tubers were used as nourishment, possibly as a food source in some regions.

Salep: One of the significant uses of the dried tubers of Anacamptis laxiflora was to prepare salep, a drink or beverage.

The tradition of consuming salep became particularly popular during the Ottoman Empire, and even sultans enjoyed consuming halva made with salep.

Grazing Animals and Anacamptis laxiflora: A fun fact about this orchid is that in Iran and Afghanistan, grazing goats and sheep tend to avoid it. The exact reason behind this behavior is not entirely understood, but it could be due to the presence of compounds or chemicals in the orchid that are unappealing or even harmful to these animals.
​
As with any traditional remedy or herbal usage, it's important to approach the consumption of Anacamptis laxiflora or any other plant with caution and seek advice from qualified healthcare professionals. Some wild orchid species are threatened or endangered, so it is essential to be mindful of conservation efforts and avoid unsustainable harvesting practices.
