About

What is Kekereke Traditional Medicine?

We believe in herbalism. Herbalism is the study of botany and use of plants intended for medicinal purposes or for supplementing a diet and one of the main methods used to treat many illnesses in traditional African medicine. Since the continent of Africa has an abundance of herbs and plants from areas such as rain forests, healers use the indigenous flora as treatments.

Kekereke (pronounced KEY-KAR-EEKI) is traditional natural holistic herbal medicines from various parts of Africa.We offer a specialized formula of herbs, roots and plants to naturally treat several health issues. Each formula has a different purpose and heals the body in a unique way. Kekereke Traditional Medicine is a medical system based on the use of plants or plant extracts that may be eaten or applied to the skin. Our most popular variety is the Kekereke Digestion/Multipurpose which is specially designed to heal several parts of the body simultaneously.

Did You Know?

Since ancient times, herbals has been used by many different cultures throughout the world to treat illness and to assist bodily functions. Today we rely heavily on expensive prescriptions that cause more damage to the body than good. Kekereke wants to bring back good health using only the stuff made by Mother Nature herself.

There is evidence that many chronic metabolic diseases begin in the gut. It occurs when too many toxins leak into the bloodstream causing chronic inflammation. This diet-induced inflammation may trigger insulin resistance (driving type 2 diabetes), leptin resistance (causing obesity), fatty liver disease, and has been strongly linked to many of the world’s most serious diseases. Fortunately, Kekereke Traditional Medicine has something for these issues.

Plant Life

Africa is endowed with many plants that can be used for medicinal purposes to which they have taken full advantage. In fact, out of the approximated 6400 plant species used, more than 4000 are used as medicinal plants. Medicinal plants are used in the treatments of many diseases and illnesses, the uses and effects of which are of growing interest to Western societies. Not only are plants used and chosen for their healing abilities, but they also often have symbolic and spiritual significance. For example, leaves, seeds, and twigs that are white, black and red are seen as especially symbolic or magical and possess special properties.

Are there any side effects with any of the products?

None recorded with our formulas however when taking medication, you should investigate possible interactions with an herbal remedy you may be considering. Be careful about mixing herbs and drugs that have similar actions. For example, it may not be a good idea to mix anticoagulant drugs with ginkgo, a natural blood thinner; the herb valerian, a sedative, probably shouldn’t be mixed with prescription sleeping pills. Similarly, avoid mixing herbs and drugs that have opposite actions. Other agents may alter the way a medication is handled by the body.
