KUBANG PASU: The Health Ministry is expected to review the findings of a probe into the supposed medical benefits of a so-called ion therapy well in Rembau, Negeri Sembilan, soon.
Health Minister Datuk Seri Dzulkefly Ahmad said the investigation into the claims made about the well was ongoing.
The Negeri Sembilan Health Department announced it was probing the case on Oct 30, after the videos about the well and its purported benefits went viral.
Numerous TikTok videos claim the well can relieve stroke symptoms among others through "special ionic treatment".
Dzulkefly said any medical claim must be backed by scientific evidence.
"It's very important for us to remain well-informed, health literacy is key," he told reporters on the sidelines of the Kedah Amanah convention here.
"Don't be easily misled by any medical claim, don't be too gullible," said Dzulkefly who is also Amanah vice-president.
