PLEASE NOTE:

 

I'm not posting this as Scientific fact, or with any hidden agenda......  just "FYI" to the forum to make of what you will.

 

Thailand inmates are taking green chiretta to fight mild COVID – here’s what we know about this herbal drug

andrographis paniculata ฟ้าทะลายโจร has been touted as a covid treatment since early in the pandemic.  Lots of Thais take use that herb for a variety of ills, and I know of several who have taken the herb on a daily basis in hopes of keeping the virus at bay.  Capsules of the herb are available in 7-11.  I've lived here for 25 years and I take 3-4 capsules whenever I'm feeling a bit off or a cold coming on.    Many people have the herb growing in their yards.

If it were a panacea, I doubt the government would be spending gazillions in vaccinations.

Will I continue to use it?  Yes, indeed.  Does it cure/prevent covid........I doubt it.

suppoosed to be taken when already not well.

Not as prevention.

The last time I read about this herb that inmates were making and packing it for commercial use
