Drosera rotundifolia is the botanical name of the plant, left, photographed by my father, who was a botanist, horticulturist and soil scientist. Photography was his one great passion. His specialty was "macro" and "micro" photography. Many of these kinds of photographs were part of his exhibit at the University of Guelph, in 1996. I didn't get to see the exhibit, since at the time I was living in California. He at least got to see it before he passed away. Drosera was his favorite subject. He photographed it whenever he had the opportunity, in different parts of the world, from the Czech countryside, to the lakes in Nova Scotia and marshlands of Ontario.
It turns out Drosera rotundifolia [Sundew], top left, is a truly Hermetic, rare western herb. In old medieval literature it is said this herb reduces "carbon debris" in the system. So this exquisite, insect eating plant Tonifies and Circulates Lung Qi (Qi implies flow of energy); Tonifies Reproductive and Kidney Qi; Relieves Impotence; and Reduces Lymph Congestion (HIV). This herb is extremely rare; it's the "tiger bone" of western herbs. And before you go searching for it in the wild or poison yourself, let us introduce you to some more accessible herbs that will emulate the action of Drosera.
Let us prepare a decoction/ Chinese Herbal Tea that will tonify your lungs, adrenal, hormonal and sexual energy. A variety of TCM classic formulas will be on hand to choose from. Also, custom-designed herbal tinctures and brandy will be available to sample.

The Oriental herbal formula, right, is called Central Qi. As you might have guessed, it tonifies the middle, solar plexus area, including stomach, liver, and intestinal energy. It's pretty balanced and can be taken over long periods of time. It's especially good for those who consume alcohol, caffeine, and dairy products. It helps with candida conditions, varicose veins, hernia, and prolapses of all kinds. Most of all, it heals liver, stomach, and spleen/ intestinal irregularities and disorders. Consequently, it frees up a lot of energy and improves stamina. Preparable by long decoctions / bradies, or tinctures.

PLEASE NOTE THAT MY WEBSITE HAD BEEN HACKED ON OCT 4/2021 The https://gbpohoral.ca/ URL showed as "scrambled Chinese"! The hackers then posted/attached to some of my webpages - on Google search that Cialis and Viagra were the subject of my website, and that my website was selling these drugs online! - NONE OF THIS IS TRUE! All the references to Cialis and Viagra with respect to my website are currently showing in Google searches. My website DOES NOT SELL ANY PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS! Google indicated that it will take up to 5 weeks to clear/delete it.

My site had been checked for viruses & malware, none were found by GoDaddy's IT Support people. As I'm the only developer/designer/webmaster of my website, I didn’t know how to remove the scrambled pages and needed help. It was actually GoDaddy who instructed me to download that particular FileZilla that scrambled my site, after I was unable to re-upload a number of files/pages through GoDaddy's File Manager, which was not allowing me to upload files for a few days.
Oct 8/2021 - All is well now! GoDaddy stepped up and fixed my URL problem and quarantined the scrambled files! THANKS MUCH, GoDaddy! Also, my website had been moved to a C-Panel Hosting. Not a seamless production. Experienced glitches trying to upload files to the new C-Panel location. All is well now!
