STOMACH ULCER?
🌿 Do You Know? — Parquetina Nigrescens (Locally known as Abakamo) and Ulcer Relief!
Many people struggle today with chronic peptic ulcers, stomach pain, and acidity — but nature has a gentle remedy.
🔬 Scientific Insights
Modern studies have shown that Parquetina nigrescens, a medicinal plant native to West Africa, possesses strong gastroprotective and antioxidant properties. Research on animal ulcer models (ethanol- and stress-induced) demonstrated that extracts of the leaves significantly:
· Reduce ulcer formation and severity.
· Protect the stomach lining from oxidative damage.
· Support faster tissue healing and mucosal repair.
These effects are attributed to the plant’s rich phytochemical composition.
🌿 Phytochemical Constituents
Multiple scientific reviews and screenings reveal that the leaves of Parquetina nigrescens contain:
· Flavonoids – powerful antioxidants that protect and stabilize gastric tissues.
· Tannins – astringent compounds that help reduce mucosal erosion and enhance barrier strength.
· Saponins, Alkaloids, and Phenolic Compounds – supportive of anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity.
· Terpenoids, Steroids, Cardiac Glycosides, and Anthraquinones – reported in some studies for their cytoprotective and metabolic benefits.
⚙️ Proposed Mechanisms of Action
Scientific evidence suggests several ways these compounds may contribute to ulcer healing:
1.Antioxidant and free-radical scavenging activity – Flavonoids and phenolics neutralize reactive oxygen species, protecting the gastric mucosa.
2. Mucosal protection – Tannins and related compounds strengthen the mucus barrier and enhance prostaglandin-like protective effects.
3.Antisecretory effects – Certain extracts have been shown to reduce gastric acidity and prevent ulcer formation in ethanol-induced models.
