It is important part of Traditional Healing in Baitul region. Few years back Traditional Healer from Baitul visited to me with serious patient of cancer. He was using Hemigraphis based formulations but not getting the desirable effects. Someone from Forest department informed him about my work on cancer herbs. We discussed a lot on its different aspects and based on it he added more ingredients in his formulation.
It is not in trade from Baitul but collected by the Traditional experts.
