Accra, May 19, GNA – Mr Ben Kofi Ekuban, Chief Executive Officer of Ekubanco Herbal Clinic, on Wednesday called on the government to support traditional herbal medicine.
He said this would help the nation to save and earn more foreign exchange from the export of herbal products. Mr Ekuban, who was speaking at the launch of Ekubanco Herbal Products at Madina in Accra, said the support would also promote Ghanaian herbal medicine and enhance tourism. Some of the products, which are mainly food supplements, are Ekubanco Health Booster, Ekubanco Dandelion, Ekubanco Cinnamon, Ekubanco Immune Booster and Ekubanco Prostate, Ekubanco Cancer Care and Ekubanco Garden of Eden.
