Plants have been a mainstay in traditional African medicine. Now a group of scientists has taken 16 common South African plants and discovered that eight of them have properties that reduce blood pressure. They are:

  • Spleen Amaranth (Amaranthus dubius)
  • Smooth Pigweed (Amaranthus hybridus)
  • Chinese Violet (Asystasia gangetica)
  • Gallant Soldier (Galinsoga parviflora)
  • Yellow Justica (Justica flava)
  • Common Weed (Oxygonum sinuatum)
  • Starhair Ground Cherry (Physalis viscosa)
  • Wild Garlic (Tulbaghia violacea)
  • Blood Pressure Plant
