Euphorbia tirucalli or stick plant contains a latex which can be used for warts. The latex is corrosive and poisonous and a drop on the latex on warts for about 3 consecutive days can “cauterize†the warts. The latex material contains hydrocarbons (terpenic alcohol) which is also a good source of biofuel or biodiesel. Since the sap is poisonous be careful in handling the plant because any contamination with the eyes can cause blindness. Similar sap from trees such as pili or cashew works the same way on warts and moles.

magandang gabi po.
ano po kaya gamot sa anemic?kasi ung anak ko 4yrs old anemic. sa health center ko lang napa-check up at ang sabi nya painumin ko daw ng incremin once a day for 3months at ung may ascorbic acid n vits. maliban po jan, ano po herbal pwede ko ipainom sa anak ko or pwede food na kainin nya para maging normal dugo nya?sobra pihikan po kasi nya sa pagkain even solid food..
sana matulungan nyo ko.salamat po.
From Dr. Aligui: Iron supplementation ang kailangan nya mula sa vitamins katulad ng incremin with iron. Dapat ding bigyan ng vitamin C para maganda ang absorption ng iron. Pa-check up mo rin baka may intestinal parasites na nakakabawas ang iron sa katawan. Kung pihikang kumain, bigyan mo ng food na gusto nya at gaganahan din yan sa ibang pagkain. Dapat malaman din ng doctor kung sya ay undernourished.

Dr. Aligui, ask ko lang po kung ano naman ang pwede sa tulad kong me syringoma. and also ask ko na rin po kung ano bang dapat kong kainin kase mukha pong nagiging malimutin na ako. 3 beses po ako ma ceasarian. me kaso po ba talaga un? or there’s a possibility na pagtanda ko eh magkaka alzheimers ako.
From Dr. Aligui: It is hard to say kung may effect yan sa brain na magiging Alzheimers. Hindi pa natin lubos na naiintindihan ang sakit na Alzheimer. Hindi naman dahil malilimutin ka maghahantong yan sa Alzheimer disease. Walang sapat na batayan and pagiging malilimutin at ang anaesthesia.

Dr. Aliqui,
Can you give me a herbal medicine that can cure/alleviate pain for menstrual cramps (ENDOMETTRIOSIS).
thank you very much
From Dr. Aligui: Try Chamomile herbal tea. 1 cup daily during periods of cramps or 1 cup 2x daily. There are commercial chamomile teas in supermarkets but it is not always found, so you may ask the customer service in supermarkets to help you find the tea. You can also prepare Sage tea. Sage can be bought from supermarkets herbs/spices section.

Good Afternoon po Doc,
Doc, tanong ko lang po kung paano mae-extract yung latex sa stick plant ?? Ang dami ko po kasing warts sa mukha, leeg, dibdib at especially around eye areas..
Saka ok lang po bang mag take ako ng ENDURANZ kahit hindi ako sexually active..??
From Doc Emil: Mahirap mag-extract ng latex, kalimitan and latex mula sa stem ang ilalagay mo sa warts. Tungkol naman sa Enduranz, recommended yan sa mga kalalakakihan 40 year old pataas, pwede rin 30 pataas kung meron nang signs of erectile dysfunction.

Apply the latex directly on the wart. More effective is the resin from kasuy or from pili. It’s extracted directly from the bark like taking latex rubber from rubber trees. If you are successful in getting this latex, leave only on the wart for 15 min and neutralize immediately with 70% alcohol. The wart will eventually dry and fall off in a few days or 1 week.
