  1. INTRODUCTION

 

Cola Nitida has been used in folk medicine as an aphrodisiac,

 

an appetite suppressant, to treat morning sickness, migraine headache, and indigestion (Esimone et al., 2007). It has also been applied directly to the skin to treat wounds and inflammation (Newall et al.,

 

1996)on the teeth and gums. There has also been speculations as to its use in the treatment of peptic ulcer, however, in Nigeria there is no record of the incidence of peptic ulcer.

 

According to Esimone (2007), cola nitida tree is native to West Africa. Cola nuts are obtained from cola trees. Cola nitida belongs to the genus cola and family steriliaceae. They are commonly used to counteract hunger and thirst; in some cases it is used to control vomiting in pregnant woman and also as a principal stimulant to keep awake and withstand fatigue by students, drivers, and other menial workers.

 

Lipoproteins are found in the liver and cells. The liver is the largest organ inside the body. The liver is dark reddish-brown and

 

consists of two main lobes. There are over 300 billion specialized cells in the liver that are connected by a well organized system of

 

“bile” ducts and blood vessels called the biliary system.
