MALACHRA

Domain	Definition
Botanical	This highly regarded medicinal plant is made into a tea for stomachache among the Bayano Cuna and for fever among the Tupisa Choco. One enterprising Negro witch doctor among the Maje Choco follows an injection of antibiotic with leaves of malva and epsom salts for venereal disease. If his injections faile to cure bronchitis, he resorts again to the malva leaves mixed with those of cepa de caballo, siempreviva, balsa, and guarumo blanco, accompanied by a message of vaporrub, alcohol, and children's urine. Western Panamanians in Darien use a Malva tea and aspirin to treat colds. Malva leaves are often used in baths for pregnant women. La Nueva Negroes use the leaf infusion for bilious afflictions.
