In the past, our forefathers used certain plants and herbs for food and to cure diseases that they suffered. Unorthodox as it may have been, it seemed to have worked for them.

Many of them attribute the knowledge to the book of Ezekiel 47 verses 12 which reads, “Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear fruit because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing.
