Title :  THE HYPOTENSIVE EFFECTS OF GREEN BEAN (PHASEOLUS AUREUS), COMMON RUE (RUTA GRAVEOLENS) AND KELP (LAMINARJA JAPONICA) IN RATS.
Abstract :      Aqueous extracts of green bean (Kalaya) common rue (Sadapa) and kelp were found to be hypotensive, contained bioactive proteinaceous substanes and stimulated urine flow.  A combination of two of three plant extracts showed subtractive or additive effects, suggesting important bearing on their use  therapeutically.
