Kenyans Reportedly Chewing "Potency" Herb into Extinction

By John Platt | Jul 30, 2011 09:00 AM | 3

Add another species to the long list of plants and animals being eaten out of existence so men can try to get it up in the bedroom.

This time, instead of medically useless tiger penises or sea turtle eggs, it's an African plant called White's ginger (Mondia whitei ), often wrongly referred to as "white ginger." It goes by many names in Africa, most notably mukombero in Kenya, where it is said that chewing the root of the plant or drinking it in tea form can boost virility and stamina in the bedroom

"It never disappoints, my wife is one happy woman," one Kenyan man told Radio Netherlands Worldwide . "Mukombero allows me to go the extra mile and be naughty with other women as well, it has guaranteed results.

According to Radio Netherlands, mukombero is available in Kenyan markets for as little as one euro, making it much cheaper than Viagra or other pharmaceuticals, which are too expensive for most users in Kenya.

Men never fail to live up to the pig comparison.

4. this is why the "natural medicines" people are so dangerous.
There simply isn't enough natural plant sources for all the aspirin, taxol, digitalis, etc. we need.
