Sarah · Answer

I also hear some seriously ill person bath with the water. I want to give a big warning about plucking the leaves PLEASE USE GLOVES OR NYLON BECAUSE IT SCRATCHES THE SKIN but the itch does not last for long but it's uncomfortable. Once it's used as vegetable for your soups and sauces, or once it's squeezed like bitterleaf for drinking it does not scratch at those points.The edible part is its leaves.

Sarah · Answer

@chida, If you stay in Abuja I could give you some. If you see it around you can ask for a branch and replant it will still grow and it grows fast when watered daily. I'm not sure if it is sold at the herb stores.

Sarah · Answer

It cures thrush as well I used it on my cousin who complained of her vagina itching her and the edges causing her pains I gave her the juice come and see the magic. It's either eaten as a vegetable or the juice is taken on its own. I neglected it when I saw it in my garden but today henceforth it plays an important part in the health of my family.

Sarah · Answer

Yes oo let me break down a bit of what it does. 1) It is beneficial in the treatment of DIABETES MELLITUS and this is due to its confirmed HYPOGLYCEMIC action. 2) This vegetable is useful in the treatment of MALARIA. 3) Many patients have benefited in using this plant to manage their HYPERTENSION health challenges. 4) Jatropha tajorensis is an excellent BLOOD BUILDING herb and as such can be recommended to treat ANEMIA in young and old. 5) It supports SPERMATOGENESIS (formation of sperm cells)
