MEDICINAL PLANTS



Do you know that I plucked the herbs in the first and third picture from the roadside? Yup, many people would assume that these are just plants that grow wild but actually they are herbs. I bought the plant in the second picture from the market. It is supposed to reduce the cholesterol level and is also good for blood circulation. The plant with the big leaf is called Dragon's tail and is supposed to help treat cancer and the plant in the last picture is called Bird's Nest Grass (literally translated from Chinese). It is supposed to be the poor man's Bird's Nest Soup and is good for health.
