I bought cool coconut due to the summer heat from a nice old lady and we were chatting while I drank and ate my coconut.  Found out she’s the sister of our coconut man in our village.  We were talking about the axe I ordered from her home town, then we talked about herbs, healing and healers.  She related an interesting story of her grand daughter who at 3 years old had all sorts skin afflictions all over her body.  Sounded like psoriasis from her description, whatever it was, they saw a healer, a “manggagamot” a few blocks away from where we were talking and he recommended boling kamias leaves and stems.

The result of course, was her 3 year old grand daughter was cured in 2 weeks.  All she did was drink the tea of kamias leaves as her water the whole day.  She peed and peed. To make tea, just get a handful of kamias leaves with the stem, tie them together and boil in pot until the color of the tea is apparent.  I really don’t know how long.  15 minutes?  Then drink the whole day as your water.

I have never tried this treatment so I can’t comment on it.  I wonder what it really does.  Maybe I will experiment on it some time.
