Clemzy16: Agbo is very safe. Mind you, it has a limit to wish you can take at a particular time. It cures alot of sicknesses and It's cheap. It has put alot of hospitals out of business no wonder medical expert go against it. It has been used by our fore-fathers for ages that's why they lived long and strong.

sherry lo: What kind of agbo? Agunmu or egboigi or elewe?

afam4eva: If it cures everything then i wonder why the poor people who buy them die faster than rich people. You don't just mix ngwo-ngwwo and give peoplee to drink.

Kamanda: An Agbo a day keeps the Doctor away and makes you strong the African way.

Decapo: Pls lets ask ifa

Yomieluv: Agbo is good,if it isn't tested to be gOod,it would've gone into extinction since. There are some ailment that we believe cures faster,and better with herbs,than conventional medications.I.e measles,chicken pox etc.
Before the advent of white man's medicine,what was our fore father taking when ill?
Most of us,like forming unnecessary,whereas they take this things.
Nigeria,and inferiority complex. Most white man's medication are made from herbs,so what's the big deal about Herbs,or Agbo?

afam4eva: If it cures everything then i wonder why the poor people who buy them die faster than rich people. You don't just mix ngwo-ngwwo and give peoplee to drink.

Redmosquito: Minion:Ur Painfulness! Is Agbo really that powerful?
Hades:Hmph! Something you cant trace?! Something without NAFDAC number?! I have even seen it in powdered form
Minion:Powdered form?!

true2god: Can u tell me wen NAFDAC was established and when our fore-fathers started using herbs?

If u dnt like agbo dnt use it, dnt bring NAFDAC into dis matter. Agbo is the natural remedy for diseases. God created agbo but man created NAFDAC to protect some conglomerate like smithkilme Beschamp, Glaxo, pfizer and other multinational pharmaceutical co.

The agbo my grand-mother has been using sine 1927 do not hav NAFDAC approval and she is hail and hearty dan most women in the city.

Agbo is the best remedy for any ailment if used as prescribed by the trado-medical doctors. It fits in with our (african) body system.

Saintsquare: #GBAM#.Not all de road side agbo is good but u can prepare it urself,some the de agbo sellers use dirty water and other stuffs which mite lead to another thing.But agbo is really good for waist pain.Even pregnant women do take it.

Picomon: There are different kinds of Agbo. Buh Agbo Iya Ashabi na number one. All in one and e dey work like craze!!

Long live Agbo, Long live Iya Ashabi.

Redmosquito: I am a Luth Student, I have seen uncountable cases of people who have fallen sick and at worse died because they used one agbo that could not be traced

butpro: I am a witness of herbal user, in 2010, I hit my toe on a stone which, after 2 months the nail removed and started growing after 3 months while I thought its bn healed, meanwhile, there was also in-growing which was bringing pus out. I went to see a doctor who said I was going to need 33k naira to remove the in-growing. Which I cudnt afford then, I cudnt wear shoe, like 3 doctors said I was going to remove it, that no AMT of drug wud cure it. Then came the miraculous day, the herbal hawker saw my toe bringing out pus and said, " bro I fit give u medicine to cure dis thing o" I said its only operation that "shall" do it, he laffed like nollywood doctor, seriously, he accepted his offer and he charged me 1200 naira, gave me black soap and a liquid; believe you me, after four days, it was like a magic o, the pus stopped, I started wearing shoe after 6 days! I paid only 800 naira and the guy was happy, thinking he has even cheated me or so. Though, I am a clinical scientist, yet, I prefer herbal prescription to some "chalk". Samething after I left abuja camp this July.................. Another testimony entirely nairalander.tell them,all these wannabes

Justosaus:

u've got it all wong, man. First there's no single medication that cures everything.
Second, i agree with u that these ''white man's medications'' are made from herbs. But then they are made from herbs only after rigorous laboratory analyses to determine the actual chemicals in these herbs that are desired for the particular ailment in question, i.e the active ingredient which they then extract and package as medications. Even after this rigorous processing, these drugs are still known to have side effects, at times very harmful effects. What then do you think of these herbal concotions being sold on the streets? Mind you, as there are sweet mushrooms, so also are there toxic/ poisonous ones.

mallorca:
Abeg how i go fit get Iya Ashabi contact?

phineas: It is said science has proven a known plant in africa and the amazon cures cancer in the lab at least 8-10 times faster than any known anticancer drug.problem is in excessive dosses causes parkinsons.So who defines the safe dose.

Most medical drugs are from herbs.the difference is a lot of research has gone into ensuring the side effects and doses to ensure they are safe.for every medical drug administered all possible effects and doses can be defended,thats why companies spend millions of dollars on research.

so someone by the roadside or some unknown company offers u unverified herbs to cure all.....and you buy for yourself and ur child?
I'll say "choose ur poison",but choose wisely.

true2god: I hav seen modern drugs kill as well. That is y there is prescription both for modern medicine and herbal.

The point is that u dnt abuse dem (drugs) and u keep it out of reach of children.

Above all its not ok to condemn our traditional medicine, its our culture and our heritage. Even the whites use herbs, some of dem dat go to india for treatment.

Yomieluv: I have also seen people die,because they use a drug that an origin. Cut that crap,agbo works,white man's drugs works too. They go side by side.

Idi-Amin:
Dont know much about agbo or the types they sell. One thing I can say is that, when I was in Naija in 2009, and was hammered with fever and body ache when I visited Abeokuta. My mum's friend went and got some agbo (dont know where from). I'm not exaggerating, they boiled it, I drank 1 cup of that bitter stuff, slept for like 6 hours, when I woke up my clothes were soaked in sweat, I sweat out all that fever in 6 hours and felt like a new born baby!
