dc.description.abstract | Kigelia Africana Lam (Benth) a plant of the Bignoniaceae family, is a medicinal plant with many medicinal properties [1]. Of interest to this paper are the highlighted blood-glucose-lowering activities of the plant, which have led to its use among traditional healers in Zambia [2] and other parts of Africa [3,4,5] Traditional healers in Zambia macerate the fruit using water as a solvent which is drunk as prescribed [6] Anecdotal evidence suggests that the patient takes the fruit maceration twice daily after meals. | |
