[MPWG] Researchers Blend Folk Treatment, High Tech for Promising Anti ...

[pankaj oudhia]

I have suggested many magazines and journals including Natural Product Radiance from India , publishing the results of new research to add few lines about its ethnobotanical roots. They have their own problems and main constraint is the lack of knowledge. In this regard the ethnobotanists can play vital role. 
 
While preparation of any paper we genrally give much emphasis on review of literatures.I feel more excercise is required before making such claims by modern researchers.
 
Thanks Ray for this wonderful information.

(medical doctor based)frequently when treating many
types of cancer. It is produced by a fairly well-known
United States company, Allergy Research, Inc.

This is only one of many "alternative medicine"
products we use for cancer treatment.
