Garcinia kola

Garcinia kola is a tree native to West and Central Africa. Traditionally, its uses are not well-documented in any specific medical practices. Scientific evidence suggests that bioactive compounds from Garcinia kola may have potential in mitigating atrazine-induced neurotoxicity; however, more research is required to confirm these findings. Kolaviron, a compound derived from Garcinia kola, showed significant hepatoprotective and genoprotective effects against PHZ-induced toxicity in Wistar rats by modulating oxidative stress parameters. NaPherbs, another extract, demonstrated a generally safe profile across different doses and sexes, with some sex-specific effects noted. Curcumin treatment did not significantly differ from Garcinia kola in preserving certain cerebellar structures in diabetic rats with sciatic nerve transection; however, caspase-3 activation varied between the two compounds. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Garcinia kola.
