polystachia is mainly used for treating venereal disease. An inch
of it is peeled and grated and put in a quart of cold water. A
wine glass full is given three times a day. Sometimes an inch of
bark from gayak (Guaiacum officinale) is included. Another
treatment uses kod-a-vyelon (Desmodium incanum), pistach mawon
(Desmodium barbatum), ti patat (Ruellia tuberosa) and lyenn chasen
(Pinzona coriacea) with the mayok chapel. To improve your
appetite, grate a piece of root into a glass of water and drink it. Verna Slane 1987 |
