This is such a good reminder because “it’s natural” is something people use to justify almost anything.But Natural doesn’t automatically mean safe. I like that Wura didn’t attack traditional medicine; she simply made Fara understand that she should know what she’s putting into her body, especially when the contents and dosage aren’t clear.I also love the lines “since when did bitterness become a laboratory test?”Great episode! Keep it up

You are right. We have to be careful with the intake, because I learnt that the "Agbo" do affect kidney, but I count it as another stereotype

I'm glad you liked it.

True traditional medicines are great,but these people making them don't know the right dose themselves. They just tell you "oh just mix half a portion in pap or you can take it four times with water"

One could be taking an overdose...or under dose.
