Intolwane and Umgugudu are two traditional remedies widely used in Southern Africa to treat various ailments and human diseases. Growing up, uMagriza (my grandmother) introduced us to these herbs as a way of improving our health and vitality. The purpose of this video is to show you how the two herbs are prepared; from the extraction of the roots right up to the consumption stage.

[@Njabuloism]

I recently visited home and prepared myself intolwani to take with me. I carried intolwani crushed but not in powder form. Used a blender to crush it into powder form in an enclosed area. I got the powder l wanted, but in the evening l was not well at all. My body temperature increased. I was sneezing and coughing with flue like symptoms. All this was caused by intolwani powder I inhaled during the preparation process. So to those interested to prepare this stuff, prepare it outdoors.

[@MagrizaMadeMeCook]

Yes it has to be prepared outside

[@MakedahSheba]

I watched & liked your video so off I went and found some on eBay here in UK. I put one teaspoon in black tea first thing in the morning I don’t eat breakfast. After two sips it opened my bowels. Oh here we go I thought happy days it’s doing something. An hour later I was throwing up fortunately I don’t eat breakfast otherwise what a mess that would have been. Lots of water came up ndorani (reddish) coloured water. Is it supposed to do that? Where did I go wrong?

[@MagrizaMadeMeCook]

Try to reduce the quantity to a pinch.

[@JM888-m1q]

😂😂😂😂 how are you feeling now?

[@silibazisomoyo2499]

Siyabonga, now how do we make them sustainable so they are preserved for years to come.

[@MagrizaMadeMeCook]

The preservation method with African cultures has always been there like that the trees should not be cut down. What we need to do is preserve the knowledge and systems of utilising these herbs.
