Sabah Snake Grass Update
According to the wife of my holistic doctor in Ipoh, Sabah Snake Grass (SSG) is a very cooling herb. She specialises in local herbs and have been using SSG for treatment of cancer patients for the past decade, long before the current SSG craze. She said the current usage of SSG, especially by cancer patients is not right. While she don't deny some cancer patients may have recovered or benefited from the SSG use, many of those who suffered from severe side effects of SSG were not published. My holistic doctor then said a few days ago, he took in a patient who consumed 300 SSG leaves each time. She became so weak and was admitted to the hospital.
My holistic doctor then said to me that my present problems (which started in May 2011) was due to my consumption of too much SSG (I took 160 leaves + 1 apple twice a day for one month). When I was taking SSG, the side effects I was having includes restless legs, weak knees, back pain, insomnia and coughing profusely. A SSG grower then suggested that I take in some ginger tea while another suggested that I take sleeping pills to counteract the insomnia. But unknown to me, my body has severely weakened in the process. My present pain on my thighs and knees are a result of SSG. I also know of a cancer patient that continued to take SSG in massive quantities despite experiencing more than 10 side effects including insomnia.
This is not to say SSG is of no use. On the contrary, it is very beneficial but if taken in excessive quantities, then it may do more harm to the body than good. It appears that the current thinking is that it is better to suffer the side effects than dying of cancer. Then I would like to ask, what is the difference between SSG and chemotherapy? Both have effects on the tumors but leave the body severely weakened.
The recommended dosage for SSG should not be more than 30 leaves, added with a slice of apple before blending. After blending, it is advisable to warm the SSG blend before drinking.
