Many Do Not Know What Herbs and Food are For

Effective Cures Can be Cheap

    There are two healing plants here:   Chili at the left, and Asi Tava (Leaves of God from Malaysia)

Chili as we know reduces weight, increases metabolic rate even better than exercise, increases mucus flow for respiratory diseases:   good for asthma, colds, and coughs.  Chili does not make you hot:   it heals.


"My people are nearly destroyed by lack of knowledge"  Hosea 4:24

I passed by the yard of the husband of my cousin this morning who was washing his car.  I recognized right away that he has plenty of Asi tava in  the planting strip in front of his house.  And I asked him what it is.  He just knows it is good for something.

What is it good for?  I said for hypertension and diabetes.  It comes from Malaysisa and is considered leaves of God.  How I wish he grows more of this and grows this knowledge.  So that people will not get sick and spend zillions of statins, cholesterol lowering drugs, BP lowering drugs, be operated with heart bypass, which are all debilitating.

Camote, for its rich beta carotene contents, made it to Livestrong website (Lance Armstrong's initiative) because of its value in cancer prevention and strengthening of immune system.
