Health & Nutrition
Non-conventional healthcare also known in Africa as traditional or alternative medicine has played a supplementing role to conventional medicine. This has been very remarkable during the COVID-19 health crisis that did not record high death tolls in African countries. Most patients had recourse to traditional medicine which offered them quick relief and fast recovery. Many also took traditional medicines for prevention. This medicine, which is based on roots and leaves and focuses on food supplements and good nutrition, is well known by a few and is seldom taught and documented. This Academy in addition to conventional medicine and nutrition, aims at teaching techniques, practices and ingredients of Africans traditional medicine as alternative or supplement to conventional medicine, especially for the treatment of tropical diseases. It also teaches virtues of food grown in Africa and their contribution to good nutrition and health. Instructors are invited to publish courses and develop program in this respect.
