Abstract

Gongura (Hibiscus sabdariffa) is an annual herbaceous plant widely used in folklore practice for its leafy vegetable, belonging to the family Malvaceae. Over the past decade, various pharmaceutical and phytochemical studies of this plant has shown significant outcome, which are currently accepted and used in therapeutics. The presence of organic acids in higher quantity enhances the medicinal value of this plant. Activities observed in the deferent parts of the plant, such as diuretic, antihypertensive, antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, antiobesity, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, antianemic, and anti-pyreticactivity. Based on the mentioned medicinal significance of H. sabdariffa plant, we planned to review the recent studies of all parts of the plant, their nutritional value, and phytoconstituents.
