Abstract:

Most vegetables, including Vernonia amygdalina (bitter leaf) and Ocimum gratissimum (scent leaf), play a vital role in supporting the healthy development of human organs. This study compared the nutritional values of these two vegetables through mineral and proximate analyses. Fresh samples of bitter leaf (Vernonia amygdalina) and scent leaf (Ocimum gratissimum) were obtained from a personal farm in Edjeba, located in the Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State. The vegetables were air-dried at room temperature, ground, and sieved using a 2mm sieve, then stored in sterile Ziploc bags

Abstract:

Introduction: Hypertension is a non-communicable disease caused by genetics, stress, and lack of physical activity. So far, no effective drugs have been found to cure high blood pressure. Vernonia amygdalina contains substances that can lower blood pressure, namely flavonoids and potassium. Purpose: The systematic review aims to assess the potential of vernonia amygdalina in lowering blood pressure in hypertensive people. Methods: Articles are obtained from electronic databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar published from 2011 to 2021. Keywords used: ("African leaf" OR "bit

Abstract:

The experiment evaluated the response of Yankasa rams fed graded levels of propagated Bitter Leaf (Vernonia amygdalina) on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, rumen ecology, and blood profile. Twenty (20) rams were randomly allocated into four dietary treatments consisting of 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% inclusion levels of dry bitter leaf. Growth performance, nutrient digestibility trail and rumen fluid were collected and analyzed accordingly. Data obtained were analyzed using statistical analysis system (SAS,2002). Growth performance results showed that T3(15%) had an outstanding (P<0.05)

Abstract:

Vernonia amygdalina Delile, commonly known as “bitter leaf,” is a shrub in the Asteraceae family, widely seen in tropical regions of Africa. Vernonia amygdalina is found to be traditionally used in African medicine. Various parts of this plant, especially the leaves, are utilized to treat ailments such as fever, diabetes, and gastrointestinal issues. Research from multiple researchers has shown a wide range of phytochemical and bioactive compounds present in Vernonia amygdalina; examples are terpenoids, tannins, alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, steroids, glycosides, etc., which have contribute

Abstract:

Vernonia amygdalina is tropical shrub with high biomass yield which is used to prepare several dishes, it is also utilized as herb for health improvement. This study was carried out to determine, the proximate, mineral and phytochemicals composition of fresh and dry bitter leaf (Vernonia amygdalina) leaves in Bida metropolis. The Vernonia amygdalina leaf samples were evaluated using standard procedures. The result of the proximate analysis show that percentage dry matter and moisture content shows significant (p<0.05) difference between the samples. The percentage ash content and the crude

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibition potential of extracts from Vernonia amygdalina on α-amylase and α-glucosidase activity, and its useful mechanisms in the treatment of diabetes specifically Type 2. The searchlight is beamed on the potential of the plant extract to inhibit the activity of α-amylase and thereby determining its mechanism or mode on inhibition as well as its IC50 value. The inhibition of alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase enzymes is a key strategy in managing diabetes. Vernonia amygdalina is a natural plant extract that has been used traditionally to manage
