Experimental analysis demonstrates aflatoxins damage liver and kidney in rats, suggesting Asparagus africanus may protect organs.

Significant damage to liver, kidney, and lung tissues observed in aflatoxin-exposed albino rats, indicating severe health risks.
Aflatoxins reached up to 88.22 ppb in food samples, exceeding international safety limits and highlighting exposure risks.
Analysis used ELISA for identifying fungal contamination and assessing toxic effects on vital organs in a controlled setting.
Asparagus africanus extract offers therapeutic potential, restoring organ health and reducing inflammation after aflatoxin exposure.
