#FeverRelief

With its thorn-laced stems coiling through the forests of Southeast Asia, the Khon Tha plant—known to scientists as Harrisonia perforata—has been steeped in Thai healing traditions for centuries. Revered under many local names, including กะลันทา (Kalantha) and โกทา (Kota), Khon Tha’s story exemplifies the enduring power of traditional remedies—and the renewed scientific curiosity that is bringing age-old practice into the spotlight. As health-conscious Thais seek both ancestral wisdom and clinical evidence, the bridge between local herbal folklore and modern biomedical validation becomes more vital than ever.
