Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi- I'm a type 2 diabetic trying to locate a supplier of Ivy Gourd for medicinal purposes. I have already done an exhaustive search on the net to no avail. Any information concerning this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks- Karen in Chicago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Seems that it is considered a weed that overtakes natural plants and smothers them. You should be able to buy it at Asian markets, but here is one plave I found by searching on Webferret: http://www.simply-thai.com/Thai-Market_Fresh_Vegetables_eng.htm --- xl3381 <XL3381 wrote: > Hi- I'm a type 2 diabetic trying to locate a > supplier of Ivy Gourd for > medicinal > > purposes.
