What plants help with malaria?

Several plants have shown potential in helping with malaria treatment, particularly those containing active compounds that can inhibit the malaria parasite. Notably, the bark of the cinchona tree is the original source of quinine, a key antimalarial drug. Other plants, such as Artemisia annua (sweet wormwood), are used to produce artemisinin, a widely used and effective treatment for malaria. Additionally, neem and certain other herbs have been studied for their antimalarial properties, although more research is needed to fully understand their efficacy.
