Palm wine and Measles

Measles is a respiratory disease that is highly communicable. It is transmitted by the mucus or saliva of an infected patent. It is airborne and could be transmitted when an affected persons sneezes or cough to the air. It is common among children but on a rare case adult contact it also. It's a very big cause of child mortality. World health organization (WHO) had recorded more than 100,000 children less than the ages of 5 whose life had been claimed by measles in 2016.

One traditional way of treating measles is through Palm wine especial among adult. They drink and sometimes pour a little in their bucket of water when having their bath. Children uses coconut water instead of palm wine because of the alcoholic content of Palm wine. I like us to examine these practice to be sure if Palm wine really helps to solve measles or it's just a myth.

Vaccine is usually given to children against measles called measles vaccine. No particular chemotherapy against measles but supportive care like giving them healthy food and other medicine to suppress the symptoms like fever, diarrhea, and the rest of them.

Palm wine is a drink got from wounded palm tree. It is popular among West Africa and the process of get palm wine is called palm wine tapping. Why I'll like to believe the use of Palm wine for measles treatment is that, palm wine could be viewed as a food drink. Because it's rich in Amino acid, vitamin C, B1, B2, B3 and B6; it also contains carbohydrate, potassium, magnesium, Iron and others.

It is also good for improving eye sight because of the vitamin C antioxidant (ascorbic acid) and vitamin B1 (Thiamine) which is very good for good eye sight. This is what prevent one of the adverse effect of measles which is blindness. Other benefit is that it helps to reduce cardiovascular disease because of it's potassium constituent, it contains vitamin B2 which helps to prevent cancer. It helps to maintain good hair and skin and also promotes lactation.

Palm wine also contain it's adverse effect because it is alcoholic. We know the effect of excess use of alcohol. Some palm wine contains preservative this makes it not a good palm wine. Good palm wine always taste sweet but after the next day, it ferments and become sour and strong in it's alcoholic content.

Ear Barotrauma (Airplane ears).

The ear is one of the most important sense organs of the human body and could be very inconvenient if one gets really troubled with it. The ear is divided into three parts: the outer part, middle and the inner part. The pressure between the out and the inner ears must be balance to cause inconveniences. Ear Barotrauma is a disturbance experience especially when one boards the airplane. It might not be that common but to a certain percentage, it disturbs the ear drum. It occur when there is a change in pressure when one is in the air or water.

TCM Nigeria

TCM Nigeria according to this blog simply means traditional Chinese medicine, practiced in Nigeria. Unlike other websites which focus on cables and cable connectors like RJ45, RJ11 cable connectors. These are connectors that help computers and telephones communicate. The RJ45 connector can be crimped in two ways, we have the straight through crimping which allow computer network devices to communicate along a network and a crossover cable crimp which only allows two computers to communicate with one another. Networking is a big feed of ICT and tcmnigeria.net have tons of details on it. But this website focuses on traditional or alternative Nigerian practice to getting well and preventing illness. We explore  Phytotherapy  and the way it is administered in Nigeria for healthier living. One of the most common tree found in Nigeria is the  moringa oleifera  tree which is a very good remedy for crashing blood sugar and it is very nutritious. It helps prevent  noma disease  which is on

Phytotherapy and myth

Writing this post close to Christmas tempts me to remind us about the Black Friday promotion of Jumia online store. The TCM app is linked to Jumia and konga store and many people from our app corner had been complaining about how expensive some of the product we recommend on our blog and app is. Jumia's Black Friday is long and it would be discounting 80% off all the product you buy from  the 13th of this month till the 13th of next month. So looking for an opportunity to get traditional products at rock bottom price, now is the time. There is a popular believe among trado-medicine that there is no ailment which nature haven't provided a solution for; it's just for man to research. Phytotherapy also called herbalism is a natural way of treating ailment by using herbs. If you are a good reader of our post, you would notice we had been discussing African traditional medicine. We had discussed bitter kola, moringa, dogonyaro, bitter leaf. I wanted to talk about ginger toda
