The Sidr tree is medium-sized deciduous with a distinct golden yellow color from the Jujube family.
Sidr tree is a sturdy and deep-rooted tree which has withstood the devastating floods of Eram at Ma’arib Yemen with two other trees: the Tamarisk and the Mustard Tree. The Sidr tree belongs to the “Ziziphus” family of plants. The average tree size is normally between 7-8 meters high. Its branches are soft and gray-yellowish. The flowers of the plant are yellow as well as the round Sidr fruits which turn reddish when ripe.
The bark on young trees is smooth and light grey but becomes rough with age. Using Phytochemical screening to the bark of the Sidr tree, a team from Albaha university and the University of Saskatchewan studied its antibacterial, antifungal activities. The team found that the bark’s ethanolic, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and Alkaloids extracts showed a potential resistance in facing germs attacks.

Nutritional Value:
The fruits of the Sidr tree, whose seeds are rich in protein, have a high nutritional value that boosts energy and strengthens the immunity. The leaves, on the other hand, are rich in calcium, iron, and magnesium.
The powdered leaves have been used for centuries as a gentle and healing shampoo and scalp conditioner and also as a skin revitalizer. Dry hair and scalp irritation will benefit greatly from treatments with sidr. It encourages hair growth, makes hair shiny and feel thicker and fuller and repairs damaged ends and follicles. It is effective in treating dandruff and getting rid of head lice, and has proven helpful in cases of eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis.
The leaves contain saponins which not only cleanse the hair and scalp, but are also very beneficial for facial skin, evening out skin tone, moisturizing the skin and soothing and calming irritated, inflamed skin. The powder balances out sebum production, making it a must for ageing skin.
It contains phyto-compounds which may help to reduce wrinkles, have a soothing and nurturing effect on the skin around the eyes and help to prevent the breakdown of collagen
When taken internally, the saponins, alkaloids, tannins and other phytochemicals work together to create an anti-microbial effect in the body. Research has shown that the powder strengthens the immune system, lowers glucagon levels (thereby helping to regulate blood sugar), and reduces inflammation. It has been used to treat headaches, as an analgesic and as a wound dressing.
