I bought a little packet of pills (or peppercorns) from this woman. They have a funny English/Thai label and are said to cure all kinds of things--from beri beri to baldness. I haven't tried them yet.
I have no idea if this woman is a master herbalist or a total fake. But given the nature of her little shop, I'd lay odds on her being a master herbalist.
