Justicia carnea is a medicinal plant that is used conventionally as blood tonic from time immemorial in Nigeria
Justicia Carnea has been proven by researchers who used animal models in a new study that it possesses blood-boosting properties more effective than blood tonics. This enables it to effectively restore blood levels to normalcy within a short period of treatment. It is commonly called “Hospital too far” or Blood of Jesus. It is known as “ogwu obara” by the Igbo. The Yoruba call it “ewe eje” (blood leaf) or “ewe ajeri”(Jehovah Witness leaf). Obviously, it is called “èwe ajeri” as a reminder of the fact that the leaf is a substitute for blood transfusion for Jehovah Witnesses.
Can be combined with other vegetables to make soup, leaves can be boiled for tea.
