‘But it's also to do with, people like us, you know, people of colour here, um, then there is a stigma also there. Thinking, you know, why are they trying to, you know, get us to do this and not go and ask somebody else. There's that type of feeling, you know, because there's a mistrust.’ |
| Lack of understanding |
‘We live, you see, I was born in Jamaica. Jamaica is in me. That's where my roots and everything are. As soon as you come out of that and enter into a different environment, the climate is different, the food is different, the air is different, the structure. So our body becomes changed.’ |
| Tendency to favour herbal medicine |
‘Well I'm looking at, because basically, we you see, in the West Indies, have lots of herbs and things like that what we boil when we have colds, when we're sick in our stomach and all those kind of things...Take Aloe Vera for one. Take pineapple for one. Take Chocho, Ladyfingers and Moringa and Guinea Hen weed. And all these things.’ |
