Visiting South America I oftentimes get very sick from sources unknown. During one trip in particular, to Ecuador, I lost over 10 pounds of body weight within hours after having eating a little bit of ceviche,

This resulted in me having to ask my hotel to bring in a doctor who gave me an IV in my hotel room. After finishing two bags of IV fluid I was advised and immediately left the country on the first plane I could get home.

I was sure I was dying (very dramatic). At the airport on the way to the plane, I was also stopped by Ecuadorian drug enforcement who thought I looked suspicious. I was stooped over, holding my stomach. They put me on a conveyor belt x-raying me. The x-ray, which I saw, displayed a red ball in the area of my stomach. Seeing this the Ecuadorian DEA officer proclaimed to me that I had cancer.

With my history of these stomach issues, I am always very careful. I only drink bottled water, food in clean restaurants, etc etc.

On my latest trip to South America, Peru, it started happening again. As recommended by my hotel I started drinking coca tea to no effect. This is the herbal tea made from the coca plant that Peruvians use for a variety of ailments.

During this incident I was lucky enough to have a hotel maid come to my room and recommended that I take muna tea. Coca tea was not the proper cure for my travelers diarrhea.

I was lucky enough to have muna in my room as motel hotels provided this free of charge. Muna plants are prevalent all over Peru. There were plenty just outside my room growing like weeds.

I immediately drank a few cups of muna and immediately started feeling better. I slept through the night and within 1 day was back eating lightly and no longer had this travelers diarrhea.

If you have a weak stomach while in South America, you should give this a try. I will now carry this exclusively!
