Thank you for the Info.

(/mykmth)
Repeated surgeries led me to become an Asthmatic.After trying every medicine,finally got
cured with Black (Krishna Tulsi),that is Indian basil.Boil a fist full in 100 ml of water
preferably with a few pieces of sugar crystals (Khadi Sakkher),for 5 minutes,strain it and
drink hot 2 times,once on empty stomach once at bed time.In 7 days you'll get rid of
Asthma for ever.But be sure drink only for 7 days.Then if it reappears,take once more.This
Tulsi Tea is very good for BP problem too.So people with low BP,adjust your dosage.
