Traditional Medicine


Traditional healers are part of the culture of Zambia, particularly in the rural areas. However, because people have moved to the urban center, some enterprising healers have set up practice and advertize in the newspapers.

Traditional medicine at work Problem! Problem! Manhood extension, marital, impotence, fibroids, infertility, employment, court cases, low sperm count, sport, stomach pains, hiccups, prolonged periods or no periods, backaches, swelling of the testicles, miscarriages, swelling stomach or legs, promotions, skin diseases, protection of properties, treated lucky jewelry and protection, no sexual feelings, runaway husbands or wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, stolen or lost properties and many more. Contact the Specialist Doctor Cholembedwa.

They promise nearly the same cures that one gets from the spam producers on the internet.
But it is interesting to note that some of the traditional medicine healers have an awareness of the herbs and materials that do prove to be helpful in treating disease. In this way we can learn from the traditions. I am using a Colombian recommendation regarding B12 to deter mosquitoes, and thus far I have not been bitten.
