last year we had a series tagged, “Diseases, foods and herbs to manage them.’’ Part of the diseases I discussed was haemorrhoids also called pile. I mentioned that the Pharmacognosy Department, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, has a herbal product for it. Many people showed interest but unfortunately, they ran out of stock. I had to wait. So, this year, I was able to get the product for those who needed them.
These people like many others felt I was marketing a libido enhancer. This is what I want to clarify now. Haemorrhoids or piles are swollen veins in the lower anus and rectum and can cause lumps in and around the anus. It causes discomfort, itchiness, swelling or bleeding. Jedijedi, on the other hand in Yorubaland, is when a man has lower back pain, does not have bowel movements and probably has a low sexual drive.
It is time to discuss vitamin B3 . Niacin as a dietary supplement is used to treat pellagra, a disease caused by niacin deficiency. Many countries mandate its addition to wheat flour or other food grains, thereby reducing the risk of pellagra.
