Abstract

Artemisia plants are known for their medical properties. In our own clinical trials we have been able to confirm that Artemisia afra, a local and legal plant in Africa, not only has therapeutical, but also prophylactic properties against malaria, schistosomiasis, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, Buruli ulcer, leishmaniasis and diabetes. A literature survey and preliminary results from Palestine indicate that sodium bicarbonate might enhance these properties. This review paper concentrates on the potential effects of sodium bicarbonate on diabetes.
