Atwima-Techiman (Ash), Sept 6, GNA – Sheik Ameen Bonsu, Managing Director of Ameen Scientific Herbal Clinic, has stated that herbal medicine has a bright future and big role in the country’s health care delivery.

Sheik Bonsu cautioned against sexually active men using drugs to enhance their sexual performances and said the practice could be harmful to those who practice it.
He asked people to watch their diets and also urged women to constantly examine their breasts for the early detection of any unusual nodules on their breasts for treatment.
Sheik Bonsu also asked people to report early symptoms of any sexually transmitted disease for treatment.
