Other unusual remedies

Being interested in unusual remedies in natural therapy, herbal remedies in particular, I am always looking for new ideas in the natural world of health, that could be used for people suffering from illness and disease.

I found one such herb that I did not know about, Andrograhphis(Acanthaceae), which grows in the plains of India. It is regarded as a holistic cure for many complaints. In India it is used as a household remedy for fever, the juice of the leaves are mixed with Cuminum to make a remedy known as Alui.

In Malaysia where it is known as Hempedu bumi it is regarded as a remedy for cardiovascular disease, skin problems and snake bite.

Internally it has been used to treat malaria, syphilis, liver and digestive problems, and dysentery.

I would be very interested to hear from people who may have used this remedy, or any other unusual remedies.
