A renowned herbal doctor, Prof Wiafe Akenteng, has advocated for people to make it a habit of undergoing thorough lab tests at least once in a year so that they are able to confirm or not if they have any forms of illnesses in them or not.

He explained that this is particularly important because there are many times that people get surprised with sicknesses that they never imagined they had. "There are many people who are sick and do not even know it.

So, in order for doctors to diagnose them and ensure that these do not spread or become worse, that is why people must have regular checkups. "And there are various drugs that the FDA has approved that we can give out to them to help them get better.

Today, our hope is that people conduct lab tests at least once a year so that we can check for sicknesses like prostate, syphilis, typhoid, malaria, HIV, Hepatitis B, among others," he stated.
