Bittergourd plant

P1060548 P1060550


Bittergourd 'plant'. chinese calls is bitter gourd rattan?

claimed to have antiseptic benefits so once in a while when KJ has rashes - either heat rash or eczema, i'll get them (pluck fresh organic ones from own orchard or just last week when mom was here, she bought it from Tuaran Tamu) for aunty.

aunty (babysitter) will boil it and bath kj with this 'herbal' water.

seriously, do not NOT believe. if it is heat rash, they will magically disappear rather immediately! hence we decided to get this from time to time.

it is just for external use, no harm we thought.

have been using this since kj was how-many-months-old ( i don't remember). aunty's house is warm so he'll get heat rash easily, especially when he was young, when he was chubby and have a mere non-existent neck!

like this! ----->
