The biochemist said that mangifera indica or mango was also an efficacious treatment for the disease.
“Our finding shows that the plants and their sap contained relevant secondary anti-diarrhoeal bioactive agents that prolonged the onset time of diarrhoea.

Yakubu reiterated that people with diarrhoea would not think of any sexual activity let alone reproduction.
