Chironia krebsii
Small pink-flowered plant from Lesotho highlands used in Sotho folk medicine as a digestive bitter and fever treatment.
Chironia krebsii, known as Lesotho Bitter Root, is a small pink-flowered plant from the Lesotho highlands traditionally used in Sotho folk medicine as a digestive bitter and fever treatment. Modern research suggests potential hepatoprotective and antipyretic activities, attributed to its content of xanthones, mangiferin, isomangiferin, and flavonoids.
The bitter principles, including xanthones and mangiferin, stimulate bitter taste receptors (TAS2Rs) on the tongue and in the gut, triggering vagal reflexes that increase gastric acid secretion and bile flow, enhancing digestion. Mangiferin and isomangiferin exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting NF-κB and COX-2 pathways, contributing to hepatoprotective and antipyretic actions. Flavonoids further support liver function by modulating phase I and II detoxification enzymes.
