Eminyakeni yamuva nje, umhlaba ubone isithakazelo esikhulayo kweminye imithi kanye namakhambi emvelo. Phakathi kwezitshalo eziningi ezihlolwayo ngezinzuzo zazo zezempilo ezingaba khona, amaqabunga e-boldo avele njengendlela entsha endaweni yokwelapha yemvelo.

I-Boldo, ngokwesayensi eyaziwa ngokuthi i-Peumus boldus, isihlahla esihlala siluhlaza esidabuka eChile futhi sivame ukutholakala ezindaweni ezipholile eNingizimu Melika. Amaqabunga awo aluhlaza okotshani kudala esetshenziswa imiphakathi yendabuko ezindaweni zayo zokwelapha futhi manje athola ukuqashelwa emakethe yomhlaba wonke ngezinzuzo zawo zezempilo eziningi.

"Isidingo semikhiqizo yemvelo kanye nemvelo siyaqhubeka sikhuphuka, futhi amaqabunga e-boldo ahamba phambili kulo mkhuba," kusho uDkt. Maria Serrano, isazi sezitshalo esidumile esizinze eSantiago, eChile. “Ngezici zokulwa nokuvuvukala, okokukhipha isisu, nokugaya ukudla, amaqabunga e-boldo anikeza izinzuzo eziningi zezempilo okunzima ukuzithola kwamanye amakhambi emvelo.”

Enye yezinzuzo ezibaluleke kakhulu zamaqabunga e-boldo ukusebenza kwawo ekwelapheni izifo zomgudu womchamo (UTIs). Ucwaningo luye lwabonisa ukuthi izinhlanganisela ezisebenzayo emaqabunga e-boldo zingasiza ukulwa nama-bacterium anesibopho se-UTIs, okwenza kube ikhambi lemvelo elidumile kulabo abafuna ezinye izindlela zokwelapha izimo ezinjalo.

Ukwengeza, izakhiwo ze-diuretic zamaqabunga ziwenza abe yisinqumo esihle kubantu abafuna ukugcina uketshezi olunempilo emzimbeni noma behlise izimpawu ezihlobene nokugcinwa kwamanzi, njengokuqunjelwa nokuvuvukala.

"Amaqabunga e-Boldo abe yingxenye yemithi yethu yendabuko amakhulu eminyaka," kuchaza uDkt. Gabriela Sanchez, uMqondisi weChilean Centre for Ethnobotanical Research. "Manje, sijabule ukubona amandla abo eqashelwa ezingeni lomhlaba jikelele."

Njengoba abantu beqaphela kakhulu impilo nempilo yabo, amaqabunga e-boldo kulindeleke ukuthi akhule ekudumeni njengenye indlela yemvelo yemithi yemithi. Ngenhlanganisela yabo eyingqayizivele yezinzuzo zezempilo kanye nemiphumela engemihle emincane, banikeza indlela ephephile neqhubekayo yokuphatha izifo ezivamile.

Kubathengi abanentshisekelo yokufaka amaqabunga e-boldo ohlelweni lwabo lwansuku zonke noma ukufunda okwengeziwe ngalesi sitshalo esihehayo, abathengisi be-inthanethi abambalwa abahlonishwayo manje banikela ngezimpushana zeqabunga le-boldo, amatiye, nezithasiselo zekhwalithi ephezulu.

Njengoba ucwaningo luqhubeka nokwembula izinhlelo zokusebenza ezintsha kanye nezinzuzo zamaqabunga e-boldo, into eyodwa icacile - lesi sitshalo esiphawulekayo silungele ukuba ngumdlali ohamba phambili emhlabeni wemithi yemvelo kanye nemithi ehlukile.

Uma ufuna ukwazi okwengeziwe ngalo mkhiqizo, sicela uxhumane nenkampani yethu ngokuqondile.
