REMEMBER🫵! They Are No Ordinary Leaves

It is no news anymore and if you are not aware, this is a medium to enlighten you that every leaf you see here and there serves their own purpose.

Each plant, and those you would deem as useless weed around, do play their own role in men's life directly or indirectly.
A number of the popular ones you know would be talked about here

Aloe vera:

Putting aside the awfully bitter taste of the popular plant, it does its job quite well in ridding insomnia. The laxative plant could be used to enhance digestion and remove constipation, showing its usefulness to our abdominal cavity.
Being well known for its beautifying power, it is prominent in the cosmetics industries and added to some body cream, face cream or hair cream ; and domestically, it plays an effective role in dealing with acne, skin conditions and wounds.

Scent leaves:

Just as hinted in its name, scent leaf is popular for the subtle, tantalizing scent it gives out even when merely held. This attribute of it has taken part in making it useful in the kitchen as an ingredient or vegetable, giving your food a pleasant aroma!
Rich in magnesium and vitamin A, scent leaf is used to treat malaria and abdominal issues like dysentery, stomach ache, diarrhea and so on.
In some African countries, it is finely ground with some other ingredients to make soup popularly known as black soup.

Bitter leaves:

Oh yeah, bitter! Bitter leaf is that leaf that would leave a bitter sensation in your mouth even by just grazing it over your mouth.
The juice, when squeezed out, can be used to get rid of a headache. Also with the right amount of doze, the juice gotten from bitter leaf can be used for detoxification and stress reduction. Its use also goes as far as reducing diabetes and cancer.
Furthermore, it is not only prominent in the medical aspect as it plays some role in our cuisine as it could be added as vegetable to our porridges or pottages. In some instances, when sliced and mixed with the right spices and ingredients, it could be prepared as a vegetable soup. Of course, when bitter leaf is to be used in the kitchen, it is thoroughly and carefully rinsed a couple of times, to remove its bitter taste.
