Leaf of life is a medicinal herb from Madagascar, fairly common in Jamaica, a plant to have at home and became naturalized in tropical and subtropical areas.

It is often used as a home remedy for many different types of diseases, especially bronchial conditions and other health conditions.

There is a lot to learn about this plant, and there are recipes for her. Does anybody know anything about this subject?

Never heard of it. Can you buy it in the U.S.?
 
Sounds like a marketing scam to me. No reputable herbalist in North America, Europe or China that I could find reference to or that I know personally use this plant. It’s not listed in any pharmacopeia I could find. Also, none of the US websites that try to give accurate herbal information make any mention of this plant… Bryophyllum pinnatum.

The most positive information I found that could be fact checked said… It’s a popular houseplant. How’s that for a recommendation?

Funny thing, almost every article I could find on the plant had links like the following…

Don't think I'll waste any of my time clicking on such links... Imho

Every few months one of these "Miracle Plants" hit the news, a year later no one has ever heard of it. If anyone is interested, I recommend following in the news for a year, that will tell everything in the end. :)
