The soursop tree grows in Africa, America and Asia. All its parts - leaves, roots and fruit - can be used. In addition to the health benefits of the fruit, several scientific studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of the leaves on the body, hence their use in traditional medicine.

Studies on the phytochemical composition of the soursop's various parts, leaves, fruits and roots have demonstrated the presence of a variety of compounds. These include minerals, alkaloids, megastigmanes, flavonol triglycosides, phenolic acids, cyclopeptides and essential oils.

Treating urinary incontinence

Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine through the urethra.Urinary leakage is a frequent problem, and increases with age.Urinary incontinence can have many causes. Many lifestyle factors also contribute to incontinence.Many people are victims of urinary incontinence. They are powerless to endure its daily torments, for want of the colossal resources required to treat it. Soursop leaves can be used as soon as the warning signs of urinary incontinence appear. Thanks to the presence of more alkaloids in the leaves than in other parts of the plant, soursop helps treat urinary diseases, especially urinary incontinence. 

In the study « Soursop (Annona muricata L.) and its therapeutic properties: an overview » by scientist Salima Zine, the effect of alcoholic extracts of the leaves on urinary diseases is effective via the streptozotocin contained in the leaf for two weeks. In addition, the extract significantly reduced total serum cholesterol, thanks to low-density lipoproteins and triglycerides.

Recipe: You'll need 8 soursop leaves, 1 lime, 2 organic garlic cloves and 1 liter of drinking water. Boil the soursop leaves in a liter of water with the lemon cut in half and the peeled garlic cloves at the bottom of the pot.  Take 1 glass medium bamboo morning on an empty stomach and evening before bedtime for two (02) weeks.
