@pacific_chat: Matalafi has been used in Samoa for generations for ma'i aitu (spirit sickness) and inflammation. 🌿 In 2021, Samoan scientist Dr. Seeseei Molimau Samasoni led a study with Victoria University of Wellington, published in PNAS. It found matalafi calmed inflammation in lab tests about as well as ibuprofen. #Samoa #Polytiktok #Polynesian #Traditionalmedicine #FYP
Don't tell anyone you're going for matalafi. When I worked in forestry in American Samoa I went to pick some and felt heavy like I was being watched. Every leaf had holes so I took none. I told the person who sent me and they said the bad spirits were around it and I wasn't supposed to tell. I went back and found a whole bunch of good leaves. If you tell the aitu ruin them.

There's no cure for demonic or spirits. Only Jesus, he is mightier than the creation. He created those spirits before they decided to disobey God and sent away from heaven. wake up people
