Sida acuta: An unknown plant (ENG - SPN)

Greetings on this occasion, wishing you a month of health, happiness, prosperity and abundance. Observing our environment involves paying attention to what is usually there. This is especially important when we identify plant and animal species, because this way we can discover treasures that would otherwise go unnoticed. For years now, some plants have been growing on my plot, to which I really did not pay attention until now, I only saw some members of Mr. Morrocoy's tribe, eating their long branches, and I say some, because each Morrocoy has its own tastes. gastronomic. The truth is that I set out to identify this little plant, which is interesting, because it produces pale yellow flowers, which are beautiful to see.

Saludos en esta ocasión, deseando que tengan un mes con salud, felicidad, prosperidad y abundancia. Observar nuestro entorno implica prestar atención a lo que usualmente está allí. Esto es especialmente importante cuando identificamos especies vegetales y animales, porque así podemos descubrir tesoros que de otra forma pasarían desapercibidos. Desde hace años en mi solar nacen unas plantas, a las cuales realmente no presté atención hasta ahora, solamente veía algún que otro miembro de la tribu del Sr. Morrocoy, comiendo sus largas ramas, y digo algunos, porque cada morrocoy tiene sus propios gustos gastronómicos. Lo cierto es que me dispuse a identificar esta plantita, que resulta interesante, porque da unas florecillas de color amarillo pálido, que son bonitas de ver.

When doing the comparison with Google Lens, I found that this little plant has the scientific name Sida acuta, (it was the closest correspondence I found), but I could not find almost any material or studies that have been done regarding it. I also did not find oral sources that told me if the plant has any use as a natural medicine, so the information I offer here is brief.

Al hacer la contrastación con Google Lens, encontré que esta plantita tiene como nombre científico Sida acuta, (fue la correspondencia más cercana que encontré), pero no pude hallar casi material o estudios que se hayan hecho con respecto a ella. Tampoco encontré fuentes orales que me dijeran si la planta tiene alguna utilidad como medicina natural, por lo que la información que aquí ofrezco es breve.

The information I obtained tells me that it is a silver native to Central America, although it is currently distributed throughout all tropical areas of the planet, which is why I can see it on my plot. They are bushes up to a meter high, with toothed leaves, and small flowers in which I rarely see any melipona bee approaching to drink, so I think it has no value as a honey plant. The underside of the leaves is a matte green, which contrasts with the brighter green of the front part of the leaves.

La información que conseguí me indica que es una plata nativa de Centroamérica, aunque actualmente se distribuye por todas las zonas tropicales del planeta, de allí que pueda verla en mi solar. Son arbustos de máximo un metro de alto, con hojas dentadas, y pequeñas florecillas en las que rara vez veo alguna abejita melipona acercarse para libar, por lo que creo que carece de valor como planta melífera. El envés de las hojas es un verde mate, que contrasta con el verde más vivo de la parte anterior de las hojas.

Another interesting information that I got is that the plant has alkaloids, specifically quindoline and cryptoleptin. Quindoline is active against gran-positive bacteria, and cryptoleptin, which is derived from quindoline, is an alkaloid with antibacterial, antiherpetic, antimalarial and antihyperglycemic capabilities, it also inhibits platelet aggregation, making it ideal in the treatment of certain cardiovascular diseases, and like quindoline, it is active against gram-positive bacteria. All this indicates to me that it could be an important natural medicine for the treatment of infections caused by gram-positive bacteria, against malaria, herpes, and also for the treatment of diabetes. And even though it has action on herpes, I have not heard that it is used for the natural treatment of Herpes zoster or shingles.

Otra información interesante que conseguí, es que la planta posee alcaloides, específicamente quindolina y criptoleptina. La quindolina es activa en contra de bacterias gran-positivas, y la criptoleptina, que es derivada de la quindolina, es un alcaloide con capacidades antibacterianas, antiherpética, antimalárica y antihiperglicémica, de igual modo inhibe la agregación plaquetaria, por lo que es ideal en el tratamiento de ciertas enfermedades cardiovasculares., y al igual que la quindolina, es activo contra bacterias gram-positivas. Todo esto me indica que podría ser una medicina natural importante para el tratamiento de infecciones por bacterias gram-positivas, contra la malaria, el herpes, y también para el tratamiento de la diabetes. Y aún cuando tiene acción sobre el herpes, no he oído que se use para el tratamiento natural del Herpes zóster o culebrilla.

Here I end my post today, in which I have shared the images of a plant that in any case serves as food for some of the morrocoyes, and surely for some insects, and obviously, has its ecological niche in the small ecosystem of my solar. I say goodbye to you, wishing you good health and well-being and remember: Not all days are the same, and even more important: Everything you give, everything you do, will inexorably return to you. Hugs!

Aquí termino mi post de hoy, en el que les he compartido las imágenes de una planta que en todo caso sirve de comida para algunos de los morrocoyes, y de seguro para algunos insectos, y obviamente, tiene su nicho ecológico en el pequeño ecosistema de mi solar. Me despido de ustedes, deseándoles mucha salud y bienestar y recuerden: No todos los días son iguales y más importante aún: Todo lo que das, todo lo que haces, inexorablemente volverá a ti. ¡Abrazos!

Son plantas muy positiva para la curación, pero cuando su uso es desmedido. Se convierte en una droga muy poderosa.

Ciertamente, la medicina natural y las plantas en general, deben ser utilizadas con mesura, porque son muy potentes. Muchas gracias por su visita y comentario señor @omarrojas

Thank you @sirenahippie for the very interesting post, I've seen a similar looking plant here in South Africa, not sure if it's the same species. Well...next time I see it, I'll take a closer look. Thank you for sharing, will stop by your next post.
Have an amazing day.

Hi @artywink

It is possible that that plant you see there, in South Africa, is a variety of this one.

Thank you very much for your visit and kind comment, sorry for my delay in responding to you. Have a great week!

No problem @sirenahippie I think you are correct, it could very well be a variety of the same plant, I'll definitely look out for it next time.
Have an awesome day.

hello @sirenahippie mam
How are you

This combination of green leaves with the wonderful nature and environment is really wonderful to see. Which is highly commendable. But we have to be more creative in the care and proper maintenance of these plants. But your garden plants look great in the form of small flowers. Thank you very much for presenting to us the beautiful story of the wonderful nature and environment. But I have seen such nature and green leaves in our city too. Which grows in size. I hope God bless you always with all abilities. I pray for forgiveness for you and your family and those who have become grave dwellers.

Have a lovely time.
Regards @mdakash62
