My mum used to take a lot of those "grasses" or herbs said to have different medicinal values. There are plenty of these along Gaya Street. The picture below shows two types, the front one is labeled as good for kidney, the other one was not labeled!
Incidentally I also these sour sop. Someone told me that sour sop is a miraculous natural cancer cell killer. How true it is, I don't know!
Incidentally, I read this article on "Skin Food" that I lifted from Malaysia Airlines' inflight magazine -Skin Food
