I think most people use traditional medicine but they don’t know they are i.e lemon and tumeric honey , and ginger tea we can’t avoid them in life only to trust in and believe that our medicine are treating .

Medicine works when used well. We can not put aside science because of an emotional attachment to tradition.

Traditional medicine is used a lot. Each time you get a headache and take juice or mix up hot lemon ginger and honey, you are taking traditional medicine!
We often think traditional medicine is some bitter herbs that are hard to find and must only be administered by an old medicine-man in a small hut with weird stuff hanging on his neck and smoke coming from some incense in a corner.
It is our understanding that has changed and we need more traditional and herbal supplements to maintain health and avoid the chemicals stuffed in todays drugs.

We have a western education, we watch western movies, since childhood we have gone to western hospitals… I understand the sudden need to look at traditional medicines especially after the whole Madagascar cure fiasco.
However, we can not blame youth for not embracing traditional medicines because of how most of us have been brought up. We wouldn’t survive one month in the bush: our death will probably come after eating something poisonous and not even because of hunger or wild animal attacks.
