| Procedure of Use |
Cowherds in Gujarat prepare a herbal tonic from mango-ginger (Curcuma amada), known locally as amba haldi, and rapeseed (Brassica campestris)to nurse emaciated livestock back to health. Add 250 millilitres of vegetable fat to 5 litres of milk and stir well. Crush 250 grams of mango-ginger rhizomes and mix with 250 grams of powdered mustard seeds. Add this mixture to the milk. Feed this solution to the animal for a week and it gets its metabolic rate back and regains strength. |
