Description

Fig leaves from eastern Morocco brew into teas with reputed healing powers, and Aziz Tikent and co-authors put four local kinds through a full lab sieve, in work from twenty twenty-four. Liquid tools sorted the leaves' plant chemicals. One kind led in broad plant phenols; another in vitamin C; a third in bitter tannins.

All four extracts fought oxidation strongly, in step with their phenol loads. They also killed germs and fungi in dish tests. Against three breast cancer cell lines, the extracts showed real kill with some selectivity. Computer docking added hints on how the chemicals bind. The leaves merit drug-hunt attention.
