#cerasee

Couple months ago I went on a hike to a deserted beach in Robin’s Bay St. Mary (it needs a clean up btw...all kinda garbage from Haiti and DR) On the hike I saw so many of the healing herbs that we are blessed to have on this island. They were either brought here with us or they were waiting here for us and we should make use of them. Here are just a few of their benefits: Milk weed - treats cold, bronchitis and other respiratory tract infections. Sage - treats colds, coughs, asthma and fever....anti-malaria, anti-dengue anti-bacterial Pepper Elder - in Jamaica we use pepper elder to treat colds, flu, fever, pain and stomach problems. Vervine - immune stimulant, anti-microbial. Studies confirmed vervines effectiveness in treating respiratory problems. Cerasee - promotes immune function and increase resistance to viral and bacterial infections.

Cerasee

Balsam Apple is a Bitter Melon relative with tiny pointed fruit that are edible when young and green, but that cause vomiting when ripe and orange. The bright red seed coat is sweet and textured like tapioca. In Cameroon, Sudan, and southern Africa the young fruit and leaves are cooked as a vegetable. This plant (Momordica balsamina) has numerous medicinal uses, and in 19th century texts it is described alongside the more common bitter melon (Momordica charantia), and both listed as Cerasee, an important healing vegetable in Jamaica. This plant is from tropical Africa and was also introduced to Asia where it is used to treat wounds.

Harvesting #cerasee or asosi (in my native tongue) ... Strolling through my archives., what stood out to me is my #teatime stories... Last year this time, I was brewing cerasee., same thing I'm doing today... Now what exactly does that say🤔... I'm thinking either I'm on a PROgressive track or back tracking. ... Either way there's something to gain here... Enough bout' me though, what's in your cup? https://www.instagram.com/p/CHJa1vBhtYv/?igshid=1p5t33nhrd4k
