Botanical Name - Hibiscus sabdariffa Category - Medicinal Form - Dry Part Used - Flower General Information - Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (roselle) belongs to the family Malvaceae. It exists as herbs or shrubs, often with fibrous stems, (Eno, 2000). The leaves are deeply three- to five-lobed, 8-15 cm long, arranged alternately on the stems. Vernacular names, in addition to roselle, in English-speaking regions are rozelle, sorrel, red sorrel, and Florida cranberry. In North Africa and the Near East Hibiscus sabdariffa is called karkad or carcad. Hibiscus sabdariffa is believed to have originated from India and Malaysia, where it is commonly cultivated, and must have been carried at an early date to Africa. Two main types of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. exist. The more important economically is Hibiscus sabdariffa variety altissima Wester, an erect, sparsely branched annual plant which is cultivated for its jute-like fiber in India, the East Indies, Nigeria and to some extent in tropical America. The other distinct type of roselle, Hibiscus sabdariffa variety sabdariffa. Phytochemicals- Citric and malic acids are the major organic acids in aqueous extracts of the flowers of Hibiscus sabdariffa. Most of the chemical investigations of the flower constituents have been directed towards characterization of their pigments. Isolated an anthocyanin, to which they assigned the structure, cyanidin-3-glucoside this was later changed to delphinidin-pentoside-glucoside. Delphinidin and cyanidin were reported as major constituents of plants grown in Trinidad. Pigment also isolated delphinidin-3-sambubioside (major component), delphinidin-3-monoglucoside and cyanidin-3-monoglucoside

In the traditional system of medicine, amla is used to treat a variety of ailments such as anemia, hyperacidity, diarrhea, eye inflammation, leucorrhea, jaundice, nervine debility, liver complaints, cough, and anomalies of urine. Scientific studies have shown that amla possesses antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antidiabetic, hypolipidemic, antiulcerogenic, free radical scavenging, antioxidant, antimutagenic, antiinflammatory, immunomodulatory, antipyretic, analgesic, antitussive, antiatherogenic, adaptogenic, snake venom neutralizing, gastroprotective, antianemia, antihypercholesterolemia, wound healing, antidiarrheal, antiatherosclerotic, nephroprotective, neuroprotective, and hepatoprotective properties. In this update, we emphasize on the hepatoprotective effects of amla by emphasizing on the scientific studies that have validated the property. Phytochemicals - "Emblica officinalis primarily contains tannins, alkaloids, phenolic, amino acids and carbohydrates. Its fruit juice contains the highest amount of vitamin C (478.56 mg/100 mL). The fruit when blended with other fruits boosted their nutritional quality in terms of vitamin C content. Compounds isolated from Emblica officinalis were galic acid, ellagic acid, 1-O galloyl-beta-D-glucose, 3,6-di-Ogalloyl- Dglucose, chebulinic acid, quercetin, chebulagic acid, corilagin, 1,6- di-O -galloyl beta D glucose, 3 Ethylgallic acid (3 ethoxy 4,5 dihydroxy benzoic acid) and isostrictiniin. Phyllanthusemblica also contains flavonoids, kaempferol 3 O alpha L (6'' methyl) rhamnopyranoside and kaempferol 3 O alpha L (6''ethyl) rhamnopyranoside. A new acylatedapigenin glucoside (apigenin 7 O (6'' butyryl beta glucopyranoside) was isolated from the methanolic extract of the leaves of Phyllanthus emblicatogether with the known compounds; gallic acid, methyl gallate, 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloylglucose and luteolin-4'-Oneohesperiodoside were also reported"
