miracle leaf

 

Bryophyllum pinnatum is a plant that originated from Africa but is now found in most parts of Sri Lanka. Growing to a height of one meter, the plant has a complex arrangement of leaves. One known fact about Akkapana ( life plant leaf ) is that once leaves fall off, new roots emerge from the sides of leaves thereby allowing the growth of new plants.

Background:
Bryophyllum pinnatum, commonly known as Pattharcaṭṭa, is used traditionally in ethnomedicinal practices for the treatment of kidney stones and urinary insufficiency.


Materials and Methods:
Renal calculi were induced in rats by administration of 0.75% EG in drinking water and co-treated orally with standard drug, Cystone (750 mg/kg), or alcoholic and hydro-alcoholic extracts in doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg for 28 days. Weekly body weights were recorded. On day 29, urolithiasis was confirmed by assessing the urinary parameters (urine volume, pH, uric acid, calcium, phosphorus, oxalate, magnesium, and creatinine clearance), serum biochemical parameters (creatinine, uric acid, urea, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium), oxidative stress parameters and histology of kidney.

Results:
Treatment with extracts attenuated the EG-induced decrease in body weight and elevation in urinary parameters (uric acid, calcium, phosphorus and oxalate) and serum biochemical parameters (creatinine, uric acid, urea, calcium, phosphorus and magnesium). Extract treatment also reversed EG-induced decrease in urine volume, pH, magnesium and creatinine clearance, oxidative and histological damages in kidneys. Results were comparable to standard drug, Cystone. Results indicated that EG administration caused renal calculi formation which is prevented by treatment with extracts. The observed antilithiatic effect may be attributed to the presence of high content of phenolics, flavonoids and saponins in the extracts.

Health benefits : 

The juice of Akkapana ( life plant leaf ) leaves is known to cure kidney stones. The leaf is also used as a cure for tonsils. It is also used as a natural anesthetic in some parts of the world. Its chemical constituents also help in treating conditions such as hypertension.
