Why was Chewing on Treebark a thing in the 90's?

[Blackrogue]

There’s some that will make your dikk not go down

The thing I posted does that. Its like an African ginseng

It's a common practice in Africa, and likely other parts of the world. I'd imagine the 90s trend had to be influenced by immigrants at some point.

I have a family member whose a doctor and he said he's seen some patients from Nigeria who came here and had no cavities despite never brushing traditionally. Just chewing on that shyt

Maybe the climate cut back on the virus's. that would attack you in africa.
I was sick at msu with strep and esr ache pressure.
The doctor told me to cut that shyt out.
Said the sugar lowers your glycogen in the conditions. To make you susceptible to viral attacks.
Got popped with some roids and probably penicillin/amoxcillin.
back when they could or gave shots to cure strep or laryngitis.

Plus now i have a progressively crazy tree nut allergy. That was only walnuts back then.
I would not dare to fukk with that shyt.

I was familiar with the miswak so it didn't bother me. Wearing paper towel bandanas in the early 2000s confused me tho

Perhaps. I just know I wouldn't do the stick because you can't brush your tongue with that thing. And if you can't brush your tongue/gums...

It pretty inexpensive right now. Its known locally but it comes in that form. Some people cultivate it. Some people pick it from the Forest. Its like traditional medicine. There's a lot of stuff guys know that's not modern medicine. Like if you have a fever or malaria. The people who know will tell you go boil these flowers and drink it.

I have bad eyesight. And my father had and uncles all have perfect site till old age. One of them told me my grandfather called them when they were young. Tricked them and put a drop of something in their eyes. It stung like hell but after that never had eye problems. I wish I knew what I was.

But about this root. Its about a dollar for two long ones

Has its pluses and minuses

 

[Bed$tuy]

It helps you

shyt lowers your glycogen.
that will make you susceptible.
to getting a sore throat.
Then progressing to laryngitis.
Or even worse strep.


Art Barr

Incorrect. Speak for yourself

Grape chew sticks helped me stop smoking cigarettes

 

[Ziggiy]

Talk about a blast from the past.

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

Cleans your teeth supposedly
I tried it as a kid in the 90s when my NOI stepdad tried to put me on. It doesn't taste good. If they made one that taste like sugarcane I would have been on it

First time I ever tried one I spit the shyt out like, "wtf is this nasty ass shyt?! Y'all actually like this shyt?"





Prolly a week later was addicted to 'em, lol
