Diabetes is fast emerging into a national crisis in Bolivia.
Nearly half a million Bolivians, some 4.5% of the total population, suffer from the disease & a change of diet is being held responsible.
With many diabetics also not comfortable with modern medicine, the government has teamed up with traditional healers to deal with the growing & imminent health problem.
“For me, it’s imperative to incorporate inherited teaching … [patients] can heal with plants & herbs,” said German Mamani, a specialist in conventional remedies.
