Ezindaweni eziwudedangendlale zama-savannah ase-Afrika, lapho ilanga lishisa phansi ezinhlobonhlobo zezitshalo nezilwane, kukhona imbewu encane enemfihlo enkulu. Lezi yiziimbewu ye-griffonia, ithathwe esithelweni sesihlahla i-Griffonia simplicifolia, uhlobo olutholakala eNtshonalanga ne-Afrika Ephakathi. Zake zalahlwa nje njengemikhiqizo, lezi zimbewu ezincane manje zihamba phambili ekuphumeleleni kwemvelo kwezempilo.

Isihlahla se-Griffonia simplicifolia siyisihlahla esihlala siluhlaza esiphakathi nendawo esikhula kahle esimweni sezulu esishisayo sezindawo zaso zomdabu. Ngamaqabunga aluhlaza acwebezelayo namaqoqo ezimbali eziphuzi, ithela izithelo ezivuthwa kusukela kokuluhlaza kuya kokubomvu okusawolintshi. Kufihlwe ngaphakathi kwalezi zitheloimbewu ye-griffonia, ngamunye ugcwele amandla.

Sekungamakhulu eminyaka abelaphi bendabuko bebona amandla embewu ye-griffonia. Baziwa ngokuba nezinto zokwelapha ezibalulekile, okuhlanganisa ukulwa nokuvuvukala, ukulwa nesifo sikashukela, kanye nemiphumela ye-cardioprotective. Lezi zinhlamvu ziqukethe namazinga aphezulu e-5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan, isandulela se-serotonin ye-neurotransmitter, edlala indima ebalulekile ekulawuleni imizwa nezindlela zokulala.

Eminyakeni yamuva, ucwaningo lwesayensi luye lwabamba ukuhlakanipha kwendabuko, okuveza lokhoi-griffonia extractingaba nomthelela omkhulu ekulawuleni isisindo ngenxa yekhono layo lokucindezela ukudla nokukhuthaza ukusutha. Lokhu kutholwa kuye kwaholela ekufakweni kwe-griffonia ekhishwe kumafomula ahlukahlukene okulahlekelwa isisindo kanye nezithako zokudla.

Ngaphandle kokusetshenziswa kwazo ekwelapheni, imbewu ye-griffonia nayo inomthelela emnothweni wamazwe amaningana ase-Afrika. Njengoba isidingo salokhu kudla okunamandla sikhula, abalimi abaningi bayakhuthazwa ukuthi balime isihlahla se-Griffonia simplicifolia, esihlinzeka ngomthombo oqhubekayo wemali engenayo futhi sibe negalelo ekongiweni kwemvelo yendawo.

Amandla embewu ye-griffonia adlulela ngalé kwempilo yomuntu futhi adlulele endaweni yokondleka kwezilwane. Ucwaningo luphakamisa ukuthi bangathuthukisa amazinga okukhula kanye nokusabela komzimba emfuyweni, banikeze enye indlela yemvelo kubagqugquzeli bokukhula bokwenziwa.

Njengoba umhlaba ugxila kakhulu emakhambi emvelo nasezinkambisweni zezempilo ezisimeme, imbewu ye-griffonia isilungele ukuba umdlali obalulekile emakethe yomhlaba. Ngohlu olubanzi lwezinzuzo zazo, lezi zindlu ezincane ezinamandla zingase zibambe ukhiye wokuvula izinselele eziningi zezempilo emhlabeni wanamuhla.

Ekuphetheni,imbewu ye-griffoniaziwubufakazi bamandla amangalisayo atholakala kumaphakheji amancane wendalo. Kusukela emsuka wazo ophansi kuma-savannah ase-Afrika kuya esimweni sawo samanje njengekhambi lemvelo elishintshashintshayo, lezi zimbewu ziyaqhubeka nokuheha abacwaningi kanye nabathengi ngokufanayo. Njengoba siqhubeka nokuhlola ukujula kwamakhono azo, sikhunjuzwa ngenani elikhulu imvelo enalo, elilindele ukuvulelwa ukuze kuthuthukiswe impilo yabantu nenhlalakahle.
