This write-up highlights 7 health values of bitter kola and why eating it should be encouraged:
1. Bitter kola health benefit for malaria
Considerable experimental studies found that chemical constituents in bitter kola have anti-malaria properties. That aside, traditional healers have for many years prescribed bitter kola for the treatment of malaria infections.
Researchers who reported that bitter kola had anti-malaria effect in the ***0 issue of Journal of Medicinal Plants Research, from a survey of plants used by traditional healers in the Democratic Republic of Congo, attributed this to its quinones content.
Further more, kolaviron, the powerful chemical compound found in bitter kola, was reportedly tested on a malaria parasite and found to inhibit malarial activity.
2. Bitter kola improves lung functions
Bitter kola (Garcinia kola) has been used for centuries to treat chest colds in traditional medicine, but research has taken a look and found out why it is effective. A study in the ***9 issue of The Internet Journal of Pulmonary Medicine, performed on mice, reports that Garcinia kola improved respiratory function after *8 days of use of a Garcinia extract.
Written by Simon Adekunle of the Ekiti State University in Nigeria, the study shows that Garcinia kola works by dilating the alveolar ducts and sacs in the lungs by improving the strength of the fibers in the lung tissue. Bitter kolas beneficial lung properties are attributed to its high antioxidant content.
3. Reduces eye pressure (Glaucoma)
An increase in eye pressure can lead to glaucoma, according to a report from The New York Times Health Guide. Researchers at Lagos University Teaching Hospital in Nigeria tested the effectiveness of eye drops that contained 0.5 percent extract of Garcinia kola. The results of their study, published in the January ***0 issue of Middle East African Journal of Opthamology, showed that the opthamolic solution that contained the Garcinia significantly reduced eye pressure when used twice a day.
4. It helps in weight loss
Bitter Kola has been known to be a natural hunger suppressant and also increases the urge to drink more water.
5. Health benefit for HIV
Bitter kola is a potent antibiotic which could be efficacious in the treatment of HIV and AIDS. A researcher with the Nigeria Natural Medicine Development Agency (NNMDA), Mrs. Chinyere Nwokeke said that bitter kola could be used in treating opportunistic infections associated with HIV.
She said: Bitter kola is highly recommended in the treatment of
HIV and AIDS because of its antibacterial, detoxification, and
cleansing properties. She also said that the chemical, Saponin, in
bitter kola is responsible for its cleansing effect. Saponin is
mainly used as tonic for the liver, it enhances the functions of
the liver and gall bladder.
6. It improves male fertility
Garcinia kola, also called bitter kola is sometimes believed to
cure impotence. Frequent taking of bitter kola boosts a mans
performance in bed with a woman.
7. Remedy for osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, characterised
by pain, inflammation and limited movement in the joints, according
to the National Institutes of Health. Causes of osteoarthritis can
include joint injury, obesity and aging.
Since many arthritis sufferers prefer natural herbal medicines to
other pain relievers and medications, researchers at Obafemi
Awolowo University in Nigeria tested the effects of Garcinia kola
against arthritis symptoms. The results of the study, written by
Olayinka O. Adegbehingbe and published in the July ***8 issue of
the Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, conclude that
Garcinia kola significantly reduced inflammation and pain and
increased joint movement in subjects that had osteoarthritis
symptoms.Another importance of bitter kola is that its repels
snakes. It can be used to chase snakes away. For snake prevention,
spread it around the building.
It would be recalled that Nigerias world renowned Professor, Maurice Iwu during the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) said bitter kola could be used to prevent EVD.
