For the last three decades I have been engaged in the treatment of all types of diseases and rehabilitation of Alcoholics and drug addicts. My deep researches on the Prophet's Arabian medicines and the traditional Unani medicines have helped me to discover various herbs which hitherto have not been widely used by the physicians all over the world. With these discoveries I have been able to alleviate the miseries of the patients who suffer from kidney failure, diabetes, liver problems, heart problems and many other ailments, with my own medicines without any harmful side effects.
Kasini is one such discovery I have made from my researches on the Prophet's Medicines. The Prophet (sal) has specially referred to this herb as a blessed one on which heavenly drops fall on every day. My researches have proved that this holy wonder herb can be effectively used in the treatment of various ailments like kidney failure, liver failure, diabetes etc.
Kasini roots and seeds have been occasionally used by the traditional medicines but the modern use of Kasini leaves and Its efficacy on various ailments are the results of my own personal research. The Kasini leaves as such is used both as a vegetable and medicine. Besides, the powder of the dried leaves also has been found more effective in the research studies made in the various reputed institutions. Recently the research studies conducted by the Avinashilingam University, Coimbatore on the therapeutic effect of Kasini Powder Kasini Capsules, and Kasini Tablets supplied by my hospital, by administering on human volunteers proved its efficacy in reducing blood sugar and cholesterol. Earlier the researches conducted by the Dept of Bio-Chemistry of Madras University, Chennai, Ultra College of Pharmacy, Madurai, affiliated to Dr. MGR Medical University, and the University of Singapore had proved the multifarious medicinal properties of Kasini Powder on kidney failure, diabetes, drug addiction and cancer, the details of these studies are addended to this edition, besides the various aspects of the wonder herb Kasini.
The Tamil Nadu Government after realising the medicinal benefits of the Kasini has completely exempted Kasini products from sales tax.
I am grateful to my well wishers and my patients who have faith in my healing touch. My special thanks are due to late Dr. Rajammal P. Devadoss, Chancellor of Avinashilingam Women's University, Coimbatore for her unstainted support to my medical researches. I am also grateful to Mr. P. Ramachandra Aditnar, Editor Devi Tamil weekly, Mr. B.S. Mani, Editor, Dinasudar Tamil daily, Bangalore, and Mr. C. Gnanasekaran, M.L.A., for the moral supports they have extended to my efforts.
