During two campaigns (2016 and 2018), ethnobotanical surveys of medicinal plants were carried out among the Wongo of the Kipuku Sector Idiofa Territory. They consisted in identifying medicinal plants used in traditional medicine in the treatment of diabetes.
Thirty species have been identified. They are grouped in 29 genera and 21 families among which the Fabaceae, Apocynaceae, Rubiaceae and Clusiaceae are predominant. They all belong to the phylum Spermatophyta.
The predominant methods of preparation are decoction, pounding, maceration and sieving.
The information collected could constitute a database for subsequent research. Indeed, the extraction and identification of new natural active ingredients against diabetes constitute the next stage of the study.
