Polish researchers investigated the ability of five medicinal plants from the Rosaceae family to neutralize the cholera toxin. Their findings were published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that infusions made with Rosaceae plants can treat cholera by slowing the growth of the cholera bacterium, inhibiting the binding of the cholera toxin to receptors and preventing the internalization of cholera toxin by cells.
