Testing the non-random hypothesis of medicinal plant selection using the woody flora of the Mpumalanga Province, South Africa

Isidore Muleba et al.

Summary: The study tested the non-random hypothesis of medicinal plant selection by collecting ethnobotanical data on 811 woody plant species in South Africa, confirming the hypothesis and identifying over-utilised plant families. The results suggest that the relative medicinal value of some families may have been over-estimated, highlighting the need to apply appropriate models when testing ethnobotanical hypotheses for drug discovery priority setting.

Okra (Abelmoschus Esculentus) as a Potential Dietary Medicine with Nutraceutical Importance for Sustainable Health Applications

Abd Elmoneim O. Elkhalifa et al.

Summary: There has been a shift towards safer phytotherapies for managing chronic diseases, with okra being a popular vegetable crop with potential therapeutic properties. Different parts of the okra fruit contain important bioactive components with medicinal properties, yet research on the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of okra is lacking. Despite its low-cost availability and potential health benefits, further studies are needed to enhance the understanding of okra's nutraceutical significance for commercial production against chronic diseases.
