Hello!! everyone wherever you are all over the world greetings to you. Nowadays I really wonder how we've forgotten the use of medicinal/herbal plants in solving our health problems. The natural world has provided us with organic healing materials for millennia. Nowadays, research is being done to determine how much they can help with different illnesses with increasingly positive results. Here are a few species native to the African continent that are proving effective at curing diseases.
Acacia Senegal (gum arabic)
A medicinal remedy that goes back centuries, gum arabica, derived from an exudate of the bark, has been used for the treatment of numerous infections and afflictions including bronchitis, bleeding, diarrhoea and respiratory infections to name a few. A natural emulsifier, it is also used to bind various pills, as well as sweets and added to soft drinks as it has the consistency of glue, but is safe to consume. It is also used to treat ailments of the skin such as bacterial and fungal infections, burns and even leprosy.
