Herbal ‘doctor’ ramps up production line

Herbal ‘doctor’ ramps up production line

Saengchai “Mor Saeng” Haelerttrakul, who gained fame and drew scepticism with an herbal “cure” for cancer, is ready to begin distributing his food supplements as M-herbs – both for free and for sale.
 

Saengchai, who has no training as a physician but rather works for the provincial electricity authority, told reporters at his house in Prachin Buri on Monday that a Bangkok-based firm that makes herbal products would on October 6 begin distributing the supplements in all-white capsules rather than the white-blue capsules previously used.

 

Nature Herbs International Holding chief executive Nanthawan Jitparpan said M-herbs would be available at an affordable price to ensure everyone can buy them.

 

She said the company backs Saengchai’s goal of making free herbal products on a monthly basis and would help him gain international recognition for a “body of knowledge” based on Thai wisdom about herb-based healthcare.

 

M-herbs will be available only at NatureHerbInter.com and via the firm’s phone application.

 

Some will be sold in white boxes of 12-cap blister packs, while others will be given away in a box with red mark containing 10 capsules.

 

Saengchai is widely referred to as “mor” (doctor) because of the herbal concoctions he hands out to thousands of people who queue at his home each month.

 

Recipients have reported feeling “better” after taking them.

Placebo effect !

Nothing wrong with the placebo effect. More powerful than many pharmaceutical drugs! You know Viagra is only 37% effective and it is the most effective of all pharmaceutical medications?

I’m going to go meet him before he gos international, so I can say “I know that dude”!

Is that to appeal to Spurs fans instead of Man Cityizens

My father in law was recently diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. Until recently he was being treated for free at a Government hospital. When he told them that he was also taking an alternative therapy, not that in the op I should add, his Govt treatment was withdrawn.

I have to wonder how many others find themselves in the same boat after being talked into taking controversial therapies.

The Department of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicines has been idiotic enough to certify him as a faith healer specialising in cancer curing. 

Why wouldn't he ramp up the production line to fatten his wallet?

The stupidity of the Thai bureaucracy is beyond comprehension. Either that or serious commissions are involved.

" Come one ,come all,You know that it has to be great as the medical department has not said any thing against it and the government has let me sell it in the open with no police interference" Step right up and buy this great cure all as it is only sold in Thailand."

You two need to try some real research instead of restating crap that you read or heard someplace.
