HsLBroker:Hibiscus (Sobo) The botanical name of this herb is Hibiscus sabdariffa. It is popularly called Zobo and it is usually prepared as a local drink. Some of the health benefits include: Lowering of blood pressure Reduces blood cholesterol Research has linked it with preventing prostate cancer. The leaf extract has been discovered to inhibit the growth of human prostate cancer cell. The hibiscus leaves have also been linked with inhibiting the growth of skin cancer cells due to the polyphenols it contains. |

HsLBroker: the leaf that turns red when boiled? I don't know it's English name but my dad and his friend do call it "Hospital too far" because of its medicinal purposes. |
Re: What Is The Name Of This Leaf Please? by Nobody: 1:29am On Feb 04, 2019 |
HsLBroker: The picture looks like a hibiscus plant. If the locals are sure it’s the same specie boiled and used as beverage, then the name is Roselle which is also a specie of hibiscus used to make the popular Zobo drink. |

This is not Roselle ... Does this look like zobo to you ? That's definitely something else .. |
Re: What Is The Name Of This Leaf Please? by Nobody: 6:59am On Feb 04, 2019 |
Came4apost: (Roselle) sabdariffa has long and narrow leaves. The leaves are somewhat arranged and shaped like (igbo) cannabis leaves, some species have serrated leaf margins. I concur with you. The leaves in the photo look different but with the ‘Ijebu’ man’s confirmation that the particular plant could be used to make coloured drink...btw, sabdariffa popularly called zobo in Nigeria isn’t the only hibiscus specie used to make red coloured beverage. The photo is definitely a specie of hibiscus, probably not roselle but you can’t say it can’t be used to make drinks similar to zobo. |

femi4: The claim is that it contains anthocyanin which has antihypertensive properties but this is not evidence based. The problem with some of these herbal plants is that once a claim of its super health benefits are made, we forget or neglect that they can also have hepatotoxic effects ie they can be harmful to your liver. Locals gather and collect them in large amounts, boil and extract the coloured liquid without minding how much of the so called active ingredients that should be consumed. We do not really know if the claims work and if they do, what about the side effects? Are we sure that zobo doesn’t contribute to the liver problems people present with in the hospitals? |
Re: What Is The Name Of This Leaf Please? by femi4: 8:02am On Feb 04, 2019 |
gbosaa:Zobo is widely used across the World. From India to China to Brazil. Your claims that it contributes to liver problem is unfounded |
