Psoralea corylifolia, commonly known as Babchi or Bakuchi, is an annual herb growing in the Indian Plains. The oil is derived from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia and has long been used in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for its magical effects in the treatment of various skin diseases. Babchi is awarded in Ayurveda as "Kustanashini", meaning "the destroyer of leprosy."
Psoralea corylifolia is one of the most popular traditional Chinese medicines and is officially listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The plant is of immense biological importance and has been widely used since its age for its magical action against several skin diseases such as leukoderma and leprosy.
This plant is also pharmacologically studied in terms of its chemoprotective, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Bakuchi oil is also widely used in sunscreen and hair products, especially those that promote the regrowth of hair loss as a result of alopecia.
