Mishimi teeta is so named because it grows on Mishimi hills and bitter in taste. Its root is highly medicinal and with various combinations it can cure almost any disease. Folk Doctors of North Eastern India uses it in many form. Botanically known as Coptis teeta, it grows wild and can not be grown. It grows only where thers is snow fall. After its virtues are known it is over harvested. It is now being exported too. We must try to save and find way to grow. My article on this her is attached.
