Bitter Kola (Garcinia kola), belonging to the Clusiaceae family, is renowned not only as a traditional remedy but also as a cornerstone of natural medicine. Bitter Kola is a tropical plant that thrives in warm, humid climates with well-drained soil. The tree grows up to about 15-30 meters in height and features green elliptical leaves arranged in whorls. The fruit, a sizable pod with a tough shell, houses edible seeds known as bitter kola. These seeds are creamy white, oval nuts encased in brown skin and are typically harvested when the fruits mature.
