Beware of alternative medicine .........

But just why do most people opt for alternative treatment knowing well they still have to fork out considerable sum of money and the outcome is uncertain?

ALTERNATIVE treatment, including Traditional and Complementary Medicine, is a popular option among Malaysians and other part of the region in treating various ailments.

I stumble upon this street medicine vendor and ask permission to read the medicine ingredient just to make sure the product did not contain any known ingredient that may be harmful if taken without strict supervision.As far as I'm concern such products, should not be sold unless there is proof of its efficacy and registered with the authorities.Hence, in dealing with health, seeking professional help should be the primary concern and not simply finding remedies from unreliable sources including the street medicine peddlers.

Revisited Serikin.

I have been to Serikin a couple of time but never bother to buy things.This time I went with purpose to take pictures .

I also want to see for myself about the gossip I heard from mouth to mouth about preserved seafood such as dried shrimps,dried squids and dried salted fish is believed that this product were preserved using EMBALMING chemical to keep it long lasting.My curiosity about this gossip so I stood in front of the stall selling this product for about half half an hour.To my astonishment not a single fly or insect did infest these sea foods.

There are also merchandise for sale in Serikin that many young girls love to buy such as the item in the above photo.
