I often have once-a-month-migraine since so long ago that I have forgotten!
Written by Miss Yellow
Like kids, I also love fried fish or french fries, I love something crunchy, and I become quite an expert now to fry real crunchy fried fish and ikan bilies, actually the little secret is using glutinous rice powder not the corn starch or the flour.
Fried foods? People who always have migraine will think twice before think of eating it!
If you experience migraine bad enough that every month you have to go see doctor, the doctor will give you yellow and blue mirgaine tablets. These few months however no doctor can earn my money, because when I felt a bit "bloating" over my head, I would immediately prepare my "Kacama" tea. (Leonurus heterophyllus tea)
'What Kacama? Is it "Hot" too heaty for your body and will sure make your headache gets worst!'
This is a very common warning given by Chinese old "China-women", kacama is not heaty if you don't use a kilogram of ginger to cook along with it dudes............*&^$#$**
'What? Kacama is bitter, how to make it into tea, using tea leaves?'
Dudes.. kacama tea is not TEA leaves, chrysanthemum tea is made from chrysanthemun flowers, kacama tea is made from kacama leaves (either fresh or dried one).
CAUTION: DON'T LET CHILDREN EAT KACAMA!!!!
I used my dad (prostate problem) as a guinea pig last month, initially I tried to prepare different version of kacama concoctions, eventually my dad said this version tasted the best! I mixed the kacama leaves with red dates (smashed the red dates), rinse the dried kacama leaves once, boil the handful of smashed red dates, a handful of kacama leaves and 2 litres of water for a while only, then simmer for 30 minutes, sieve before drink.
Do it at least three times in a month, recommended for old ladies who have migraine and insomnia, old women if you want nice complexion and old men who have prostrate problem.
Note: Always see doctors when your headache persists and please read the precautions from the website attached
Kuching people are very lucky, you can buy a package of dried kacama leaves less than RM5.00 (US$1.5)
This is one of the kacama seedlings in my garden.
