| Original plant name | Abelmoschus manihot Medik. syn. Hibiscus manihot Linn. | |||
| Family name | Malvaceae | |||
| Used part | Leaves | |||
| Distribution area | It was introduced from China and cultivated in North and Central Celebes (Indonesia). It is also cultivated in Java [201, 222]. | |||
| Description | Leaves 10-60 cm x 5-60 cm,usually palmate. The plant is a perennial malvaceous shrub, 1.5-7.5 m high, extensively cultivated for its edible leaves. It has a single central stem and short sparse branches, stem hairy. The large, up to 15 cm hibiscus-like flowers are a brilliant lemon with deep purple centres borne on long pedicels at the apex of the plant [222]. | |||
| Frequency in use | Moderate. | |||
| Common uses | It is cultivated for its highly nutritious leaves and shoot tips. The leaves, together with leaves of certain ferns are the most popular vegetable in Minahasa (North Celebes) [201]. | |||
| Pharmacological effect | Study to investigate the ability of Abelmoschus manihot to prevent bone loss in ovariectomised rats gave a result that consumption at the dose of 15% in the diet provided bone-sparing effects by improving bone mineral density and bone mineral content [PMID: 15848020]. The flavone content of Abelmoschus manihot rapidly and reversibly inhibited the NMDA-activated current (I(NMDA) in a concentration-dependent manner and the inhibition of the NMDA receptor response by total flavone of Abelmoschus manihot could be one of the mechanisms for total flavone-mediated neuroprotective actions [PMID: 16616791]. | |||
