Yes Tanay is right. Many years back a patient having allergy contacted me. She was much frustrated as after much investment in hospitals, the cause was still unknown. I decided to go for detailed discussion. When our discussion reached to Bengali Sweets, she informed that the taste of Gur used in the sweets is like the taste of heaven. She was taking the sweets every day without any break. I suggested her to stop its use up to one week.
Later I was informed that she was having allergy to Phoenix Gur and after stopping its consumption she was alright. It was very specific case. I am fond of Bengali Sweets and millions are also, but I never seen another patient like this. Gur is prepared from Caryota also. In Bastar, Caryota is in danger. Trees are dying due to unknown problem. Entomologists are claiming that it is due to insects, soil scientists are claiming that it is due to soil factor. Everyone is having own opinion. Thousands have been invested in the name of research with no result. Many years back I raised this issue through my articles.I tried to put the views and comments of Traditional Healers on this specific problem. regards Pankaj Oudhia http://www.pankajoudhia.com On Mon, May 24, 2010 at 6:02 PM, tanay bose <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Madhuri ji, > In our Bengal we make Jaggery (Gur) from *Phoenix sylvestris *we also > drink the fresh juice of its some people also take the fermented juice known > as "Tari" > Regards > Tanay* > * > On Mon, May 24, 2010 at 5:32 PM, Madhuri Pejaver <[email protected]>wrote: > >> About Sulfi a lot of information is exchanged . but what i read in the >> name list was one name as jaggary palm.
