What is Herbal Medicine Use in South Africa about?

This study compares the prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and the use of traditional herbal medicine (THM) in urban and rural communities in South Africa. It found that urban residents had a higher prevalence of NCDs (61%) compared to rural residents (47.6%), with hypertension being the most common condition. Additionally, rural participants were significantly more likely to use THM, influenced by recommendations from family and a poorer health status.
