Over the years I have sometimes visited a local west coast Chinese herbal pharmacy that hosts a traditional practitioner and ones in Hong Kong and Taipei Taiwan. Results for me were all positive. Our family takes a few natural supplements and vitamins’ with our Doctors blessing.I’m curious if anyone has experience with a Filipino Herbalist? Has anyone had a Filipino friend or family member who gave you herbs for an illness?

Bump for this thread. I NEED to locate a legit natural / Holistic health practitioner. Thanks all. If no responses then I'll check with mine here in the U.S. and just bring my herbs /vitamins in carry on or pay extra bag I guess.

Just out of curiosity... When you fly in to the Philippines, do you get a lay-over where you could pick some up? I'm thinking that would be less expensive than buying in the US...

I practiced it for myself and my family members with all this assorted herbal plants depending on the situation....

These plants are common in our area so i guess, I'm bless. :-)

Sambong leaves.... http://www.medicalhealthguide.com/articles/sambong.htm#a

Abana............... http://guyabano.com/

malungggay...... http://www.malunggay.com/

tawatawa....... http://www.foodrecap.net/health/tawa-tawa-dengue-treatment/

etc...etc...etc....

But every now and then I send text to my cousin, a doctor by profession and he will answer me right away because he knew I am a herbal freak! :mocking:

Hey Bob, The herb / tintures I use are from WELL validated companys like GIAI & New Chapter. I would NOT trust any other place unless I knew the individual had a solid back ground in natural medicine ( Herbs and Vitimins )

Mrs. Daisy,

Thanks for the links. I hope to establish a connection of local Doctors in the Cebu area that know herbs as well. I the mean time....Many of the herbs / vitimins I take are on my checked bags list.
