The Urgent Need for Herbal Regulation in Ghana

-

The discussion on health and safety practices, especially in herbal medicine, highlights a stark contrast between advanced nations and regions like Ghana. The alarming revelation of around 500,000 unlicensed herbalists operating openly raises urgent concerns about the quality and safety of their remedies. 

As a herbalist, it’s troubling to see the potential dangers posed by unsafe practices, especially in light of rising kidney disease linked to contaminated herbs. While the call for regulation is essential, there’s a sense of skepticism about whether meaningful action will be taken. .

This reflection underscores the need for responsible and ethical herbal practices, emphasizing that the safety of our communities must come first. We must advocate for better regulations and awareness to ensure that herbal medicine remains a trusted source of healing.

Debate Reflections

Watching the debate tonight, I felt a sense of reassurance. JD Vance’s calm and composed approach stood out, especially as he emphasized support for Israel while defending Trump’s foreign policy as one of peace.

Vance truly made Trump's message more relatable and palatable, and that’s something I can get behind.
