Herbal Remedy | Red Wine Kill Cancer Cells

Red Wine Kill Cancer Cells
Rochester researchers from the UK for the first time that a similar natural antioxidants found in grape skins and red wine can help destroy cancer cells.

Research published in journal Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology March edition revealed that antioxidants is able to kill the cancer cells to the pancreas is the main source of energy penetrate the cell called mitochondria and weaken its function

Research also revealed that when the pancreas cancer cells is attacked, by the method of antioxidants, resveratol and radiation, the combination of these cells die is called apoptosis. The existence of cancer cells die, according to researchers this indicates that the goal of cancer therapy.

“This research has many implication to the patients. The challenge now is to find the right concentration and how these antioxidants work in the cells. We have found an important part of its parity,” Paul Okunieff said, MD, director of Radiation Oncology Cancer Center James P. Wilmot at the University of Rochester Medical Center.

Although red wine consumption during chemotherapy or radiation treatment has not been examined further, two types of treatment do not cause the contraindication. In other words, if a patient has done unintentionally drinking red wine in a medium dose, most doctors will not recommend to stop during treatment.

“Resveratrol seems to have therapeutic benefit by making tumor cells become more sensitive to radiation and make the network more sensitive to normal”, Okunieff firm.

Suggestions from a top young scientists in his lab, Okunieff initiated research with resveratrol as a tumor stimulus test to become more sensitive. He then found a connection with the mitochondria provide continuous supply of energy to the cells. Theoretically, with a flow stop of energy that will stop the flow of cancer growth.

Some doctors fear, experts have revealed that antioxidants will provide protection against the effects of cancer cells is tumor cells. But this research indicates that resveratrol not only makes the malignant tumor cells tends to be dead, but also to protect normal cells from damage, Okunieff said.

Herbal Remedy | Cure Cancer With Keladi Tikus/Rodent Tuber

Cure Cancer With Keladi Tikus/Rodent Tuber
Recognized the disease of cancer is a disease difficult to kill and be cured. The cancer patients in India can have a hope of living longer with finding plants "keladi tikus / Rodent Tuber" (Typhonium Flagelliforme / Rodent Tuber) as a medicinal plant that can stop the disease and treat various cancers and other serious diseases.

A kind of taro plants with high maximum of 25 to 30 cm is only grown in the bush that is not exposed to direct sunlight. "This plant is usually found on the island of Java," said Drs.Patoppoi Pasau, the first person who found the plants in Indonesia.

Medicinal plants have been examined since 1995 by Prof. Dr. Chris KHTeo, Dip Agric (M), BSc Agric (Hons) (M), MS, PhD from the Universiti Sains Malaysia and also the founder of Cancer Care Penang, Malaysia. Cancer treatment institutions established in 1995 that has helped thousands of patients from Malaysia, the United States, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and various countries in the world.

In Indonesia, the plant is first found by Patoppoi in Pekalongan, Central Java. When his wife contract breast cancer stages III and should be operated 14 January 1998. After the cancer is malignant raised through the operation, Patoppoi’s wife must undergo chemotherapy (chemical injection to kill the cells) to stop the spread of cancer cells are.

"Before the chemotherapy, the doctor said that we set up wig because the chemotherapy will cause hair fall out, in addition to skin damage and loss of appetite," said Patoppoi.

Accompany his wife during the chemotherapy, Patoppoi continuously tried to find alternative treatment until he finally get the information about the use of the Lin Qi in Malaysia to treat cancer. "At that time I also fly directly to Malaysia to buy tea," say the Patoppoi also biologist. While in a drug took in Malaysia, he accidentally saw and read books about cancer treatment, entitled Cancer, Yet They Live essay Dr Chris KH Teo publication in 1996.

So find the book, so I do not even buy tea Lin Qi, but immediately return to Indonesia. In the book that was read Patoppoi found the benefit of typhonium flagelliforme to cure cancer.

Based on the knowledge in the field of biology, retired Department of Agriculture officials immediately investigate this and search for the plant. After contacting several colleagues in different places, his family in Pekalongan Central Java, reply his call. In fact, they found the plant there. After getting the plant and learn more, Patoppoi contact Dr. Teo in Malaysia to ask for the truth that the plant was found.

Every few days, Dr Teo contact Patoppoi and explain that plants are indeed correct Rodent Tuber. "Dr Teo said that does not hesitate to use it as medicine," continued Patoppoi. Finally, with a determination and prayed for healing, Patoppoi begin processing plant in accordance with the steps in the book to be drunk as medicine. Then Patoppoi contact her son, Boni Patoppoi in Buduran, Sidoarjo to join to find plants.

During consume pollen plants, Patoppoi’s wife get decrease of chemotherapy side effects that she carried out. Stop hair fall out, skin is not damaged, and the nauseous is disappear. After three months on the drug, the Patoppoi’s wife get a cancer examination. "The examination result is negative, and that it is indeed surprising us, and doctors in Jakarta," said Patoppoi. The doctor then ask to Patoppoi, what is given to his wife. "Instead they hesitate, if they have given wrong dose of chemotherapy to us," continued Patoppoi.

After the stories are about Rodent Tuber plant, the doctors also supports Medicine and suggested that developed. Moreover, the view that his wife did not experience side effects of chemotherapy is very hard. And examination of three months should be delayed to six months. But as something that, the doctors did not want to support the overt use of plants as a treatment alternative.

After a while not related, based on the increase in his wife, in April 1998, Patoppoi then contact Dr.Teo via fax to inform you that there are many plants in Java and invite Dr. Teo to spread the use of this plant in Indonesia. Then Dr. Teo direct reply to fax us, but they do not know what they should do, because a far distance, " said Patoppoi.

Then, in late January 2000 when the Jawa Pos review out of the death Wing Wiryanto, one of the reliable journalist Jawa Pos, Patoppoi was dumbfounded. Detailed data about the symptoms, pain, treatment is reviewed in the Jawa Pos, the same experience with one of the treatment of bowel cancer is described in the book. "Then I write a column in the Readers Writing in the Post," said Boni.

And the responses it receives are really outside the allegations. In a day, can be about 30 phone messages. "Until now, there are already about 300 people who come here," Boni live at Jl. KH. Khamdani, Buduran Sidoarjo, Indonesia.

The first patient is a patient who has early stadium of ovarian cancer. After review, the doctor should be operated. But because it has not been charged and have the house pending the sale to conduct the surgery cost, they come after reading the Jawa Pos. Once the plants are given and being drunk, not long after the patient is coming lag and reported that he does not need an surgery, because the negative results of the examination.

From their discussion, Dr. Teo recommend in order to establish representative Patoppoi Cancer Care in Jakarta and Surabaya. So officially, Patoppoi and her son was appointed as representatives of social institutions Cancer Care Indonesia, which is also mentioned in the monthly bulletin Cancer Care, which is on Jl. Kayu Putih No. 4. 5, Jakarta, tel. 021-4894745, and in Buduran, Sidoarjo.

According to Cancer Care Malaysia, various diseases have been cured of various cancers is a disease and breast cancer such as weight, lung, colon-rectum, liver, prostate, kidney, uterus neck, throat, bone, brain, spleen, leukemia, bile , pancreas, and hepatitis. So the research results are expected to spend the billions of Ringgit Malaysia for 5 years can be really useful to the health of the world.

For friends who need more information in relation to the article "Cancer Medicine" can contact the representatives of social institutions "Cancer Care Indonesia" indicate in Jl. Kayu Putih 4 No. 5 Jakarta, tel: 021-4894745

God bless you

Herbal Remedy | Cure Cancer and Tumor with Papaya latex

papaya to cure wormyAlmost any part of the papaya plants have a benefit. In fact, the papaya latex is available in the entire plant, from the fruit, leaf, stem, and root, has usefulness as an anti tumor and anti cancer. This is because more than 50 amino acids within it.

Gynecology Papain

From some of the research described, the stem and leaves on the papaya plant contain a lot of white latex like a milk (milky white latex), which has developed as an anti cancer. Benefits of papaya latex for health Bouchut proved scientifically, as quoted Society Journal of Biology, papain that are anti tumor or cancer.

Possible role of the uterus by karpain compound, alkaloid with lactose ring contains seven groups of metilen chain. With that configuration, not only tumor and a skin disease cured, karpain was also hindered the effective performance of some of the microorganisms as possible digestive function, so effective for the cause of typhus.

More than 50 amino acids in the papaya latex, tamarind, among others aspartat, treonin, Serin, glutamate acid, prolin, glisin, alanin, valine, isoleusin, leusin, tirosin, fenilalanin, histidin, lysin, arginin, tritophan, and sistein. Together they become the raw materials for the cosmetics industry refine the skin, strengthen the network to be more elastic, and maintaining dental plaque from the heap.

All this time, latex of the papaya leaves are used for tenderize meat, by wrapped up the raw meat with the leaves for several hours in room temperature. In addition, papaya leaves can be rubbed directly on the meat surface. Scrubbing the meat using the papaya leaves is meant to put out the latex (lateks) that are on the leaves, and then the latex will enter in the flesh. In some areas, the meat is cooked directly with the leaves and unripe papaya fruit to get the meat soft and easily digested. Currently, there is the latex in the leaves and unripe papaya fruits extracted to be used as a mixture of commercial meat tenderizer.

Use of the latex can be injected directly on livestock half hour before being butchered, the meat is so soft. Enzyme papain will hydrolysis the collagen in meat, so it forms a loose and the meat will be more mellow. This is the enzyme papain that remodel protein (collagen) into several parts.

Park in the third edition of Family Medicine Department of Health mentioned, including papaya plants that grow quickly and bear much fruit. In the tropics, the first conception can take less than one year and bear fruit throughout the year. Number of fruit can reach 50-150 per tree per year.

If you like papaya fruit, of course agree that the benefits and its nutrition value for health is very good. Not only have high-fiber, papaya also contains different types of enzyme, vitamins, and minerals. Even the womb to its vitamin A than carrots, and vitamin C is higher than the orange. Also rich with vitamin B complex and vitamin E.

More terrible, the actual papain enzyme in papaya fruit work to expedite the process of protein digestion. Protein content in the papaya fruit is not too high, only 4-6 grams per kilogram weight of fruit, but almost all can be digested and absorbed the body. This is due to papain enzyme in papaya fruit capable to digest substance 35 times greater than its own size.

Due to easy and not kept the season, the price of papaya is much cheaper compared with other fruit. Although the price cheap, It has so many benefits. In fact, every part of the plant, from seed, fruit, leaves, to it’s latex, can be used for various complaints. Not surprisingly, can be referred to as the papaya fruit idol throughout the season.

Nutrition and Herbal Therapy for Cancer

Herbal Therapy for Cancer
Cancer disease still become a threat until now day, while a specific drug to stop the growth of cancer cells also has not been found. By the way, some prevention efforts continue to grown. The two most popular therapists are using radiation therapy and sitostatica.

However, some people prefer an alternative therapy like using herbal to cure cancer. But using that way is very much needed understanding of how to work an alternative therapy, including the use of food supplements (vitamins and antioxidants compound mineral) and herbal preparation that can work against cancer. So that we can measure the size of its benefits and risks.

About herbal for cancer, there are various types of food was the best containing an anti cancer substances. Broccoli, mustard greens, cabbage flowers, carrots, tomatoes, meat and fish is very rich with antioxidants elements.

Various compound such as alil sulfide in garlic, turmeric in kurkumin, isoflavon in soybean, likofen in tomatoes, polifenol in green tea, revesratrol in red grape skin, and sulforafan inside broccoli, are the cancer prevention food. Some vitamins and minerals are also antioxidants, which are often promoted for the prevention of cancer: beta-karoten, vitamin C, E, and selenium.

For herbal therapy, there are a variety of plants, based on empirical experience, can fight cancer. Among parasite (Dendrophtoe petandra), virgin palm (Catharanthus roseus), meniran (Phyllanthus niruri L), white turmeric (Kaempferia rotunda L), respite (Pettiveria alliacea) and maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa).

Cancer appears when normal cell DNA were damaged causing genetic mutation. If this is not immediately corrected, the cell multiplication of damaged DNA to its potential to produce cancer cells. When the cells are intended to increase the recovery of cells damaged or worn.

From the science of nutrition, the two elements that can damage DNA cells is normal and free radical carcinogens. Free radicals can be produced through the metabolism of the body or the environment around us (gas-out factories and vehicles, cigarette smoke, chemical substances, substances such as insecticides, chemical substances or ingredients in food additive). Fortunately free radicals and can be bound and neutralized by some compound, vitamins and minerals that are antioxidants.

The compound antioxidants that neutralize free radicals is polifenol (green tea), likofen (tomatoes), beta-carotene (carrots), and some other compound in the vegetable or fruit.

Special likofen in the tomato, this compound bound with a strong fiber fruit is. To membebaskannya, tomatoes must be cooked with a little oil first, considering the nature likofen that easy dissolved in oil.

Research of Harvard University on 48,000 people in 1995 showed, people who eat 10 times dishes containing tomatoes per week will decrease the risk of prostate cancer exposed to almost half. Vitamin C, E, and selenium are found in many fruits, vegetables, sprout, and the seeds are also antioxidants that neutralize free radicals.

Second element is a carcinogen substance in food. Substance is derived from procarcinogen by the phase I enzyme in the liver changed into carcinogen. Meanwhile, phase II enzyme will remove the product residue phase I enzyme, which can prevent the formation of cancer cells. If the enzyme phase I that can be called evil enzyme, then the phase II enzyme is the good enzyme.

In fact, Phase I enzyme can being blocked by alil sulfide compound in garlic. So that procarcinogen mutation to carcinogen can be reduced. For example the one of famous carcinogen is nitrosamine compound from roasted meat / fish (eg a kabob meat dish) and cooking oil that has been used many times. Vitamin C act as antioxidants that prevent the formation of dissolved nitrosamine in the channel.

While the phase II enzyme production can be enhanced by the many sulforafan found in broccoli, cabbage flowers, and mustard greens. Therefore, the menu consists of vegetables broccoli, mustard greens, cabbage flowers, carrots, tomatoes, and pan-fish oil and a little garlic is one of the options menu that is rich in antioxidants elements.

Pressing Cancer Cell Growth



If the DNA damage of normal cells is not also successfully prevented by compound or vitamin / minerals that are antioxidants, or when the form is already cancer cells, the action that we can do is to press the growth of cancer cells. Cancer cell growth takes place quickly after the cells are getting omega-6 fatty acid. To reduce the influence of fatty acid and chase away it from cancer cells, omega-3 fatty acid that included within many fish from the cold water, have an important role. omega-3 fatty acid, also known as EPA (eicosapentanoic acid) or gama-lenolenat, is one of the essential fat.

Some types of cancer cells can also grow quickly when triggered by the human estrogen hormone, such as in breast cancer cells. In this case isoflavon which is a soybean fitoestrogen in fact competitive with the human estrogen. So that the consumption of soybean isoflavon will help prevent the growth of cancer triggered by estrogen in humans. From here we can understand the role of Sorbian cake, soy milk and in food as the growth of cancer prevention.

To prevent cells cancer metastases, we need to know how the cells are spread out. There are two ways cancer cells pro-metastase: through angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessel) and collagen, which is crushing the normal cells. Thus metastase will be blocked if angiogenesis can be prevented, while the collagen is damaged can be repaired by the body itself by using a certain food.

For angiogenesis, cancer cells release growth factors. Production of growth factors that can be hampered by inhibitor preparation Cox-2 that includes resveratrol in the skin of red wine, turmeric and kurkumin in genestein in soybean.

The collagen renovation by cancer cells occurs with the help of collagenase enzyme that is produced by cancer cells themselves.

Preparation of nutrition that can hamper the process of renovation is vitamin C and shark cartilage. In addition to joining Interferon stimulates the formation of the fight against cancer cells, vitamin C can improve the damage appeared to collagen with new collagen created through hidroksilasi prolin. Perhaps this is the role that use as a basis of controversial statements from a nobel prize winner in chemistry and peace, Linus Carl Pauling, of the nutrition therapy of cancer with mega doses of vitamin C.

Other forms of nutrition that can help repair cartilage collagen is a shark that many have been used as a cancer drug. Indeed, shark cartilage is a source of collagen that can provide natural products for body cells to synthetic collagen.

Herbal Therapy



Flavonoid compound kuersetin in the parasite is estimated to work as isomerase enzyme inhibitor of cancer cell DNA (a role in the process of multiplication and increased violence cancer). Tapak dara known compound also has two classes of alkaloid vinka a nutritious preventing multiplication and spread of cancer cells. The second compound is vinkristine and vinblastine.

Besides tapak dara also contain catharanthin alkaloid, which is similar to the compound in the cancer cell plasma. Absorption of this compound in cancer cells is predicted be urgent and dissolve the core of cancer cells.

Meniran plant and white turmeric also have an anti cancer benefit through its imunomodulator works. Both plant extracts in the experiment using mouse, in fact can increase the number of limfosit, increasing toxicities of cancer cells killer (natural killer) and the specific synthetic antibody. Attributes above will strengthen the body's defense mechanism against viruses and cancer cells.

The leaves are also alleged to have strong healing property because of suspected cancer comes from Interferon-like compound that is a natural antibody against the virus and cancer cells. How to combat the cancer with the virus that causes cancer cells to normal cells DNA damage into cancer. This said leaf respited more nutritious for the type of prostat cancer, rectum, and channel the breath.

Maitake mushroom as any cancer drug has been examined through a combination of mushroom extract with the preparation sitostatica to a number of people with cancer. According to Dr. Iwan T. Budiarso, researchers at the Balitbang MOH RI, maitake not only alleviate the symptoms of breast cancer, lung and liver, but also due to the side caused by sitostatica. Plosakarida compound 1-6 glukans B maitake believed to play a role in preventing the growth and spread of cancer cells through the increased effectiveness of all the cells in the body's defense system in addition to increasing sensitivity of cancer cells to radiation and sitostatika.

Link to the same post in the new blog: Herbal for Breast Cancer, Cure It with Tapak Dara (Catharanthus roseus)

Herbal for Breast Cancer, Cure It with Tapak Dara (Catharanthus roseus)

Causal factor of breast cancer still unclear until now. According to Walter H. Lewis on Medical Botany, there are some factors that playing role on breast cancer growth: hormonal breakdown (especially estrogen on woman), seriously injured, post birthing treatment failure, fibrocystic tumor infection, and virus trouble on mammary gland.

Preventing and Treatments to breast cancer trough tumor lifting, chemotherapy or radiotherapy are restrained. Not long, cancer will show up again. It not surprise if patients then trying to alternative treatment using herbal therapy. The last way is really helping patients and push some etnobotany and pharmacology research.

Research started in 1938, using COLCHIUM AUTUMNALE that contain of alkaloid colchicines as object. But etnobotany study done in some places, Tapak Dara (Catharanthus roseus), showed good result. For example, Eli Lilly, Svoboda, Noble, and Beer from one of Western University laboratory, Ontario, that has done test for several times with positive result. From it research, Tapak Dara plant can be used as cancer cell demolisher.

According to that Canadian analyst, some alkaloid compound from Tapak dara (Catharanthus roseus), extract can reduce white corpuscle/phabocy – especially inside protoplasm (granule) . That extract also pressed spinal cord/bone marrow activity of leukemia patient.

Tapak Dara, why its good to demolish breast cancer

According to in vitro observation, active compound influence of Tapak Dara (Catharanthus roseus), to against white corpuscle/phabocy is an extraordinary thing. That compound are also good to block growth of tumor circulation system. By tecnologi development, tapak Dara(Catharanthus roseus), has significant role on vinblastine and vincristine product commercialization, as an anti-cancer chemotherapy compound.

Tapak Dara (Catharanthus roseus) belonging to Apocynaceae family. In Medicinal and Poisonous Plants I reported by H. Sutarno and Radjiman (1999), beside vinblastine and vincristine, Tapak Dara also contain of alkaloid derivative like vindesine and vinorelbine. That two first compound are antimitotics compound that its activity depend to gland and nerve by block spiral cell to multiple. This both cells experience normal cell nucleus splitting that multiply becoming a cancer cells. By inducsion process, that cancer cell multiply and spread to the system around it, as a bump (metaphase). So it good to be used to cure breast cancer too.

Vinblastine used as a leukemia medical material. Vincristine as an medical material for acute leukemia, bubonic, bronchial cancer, nephroblastomas, intraductal carcinoma, and rhabdomysarcoma.

Vindesine is a semi synthetic compound derived from vinblastine used in acute lymphatic leukemia treatment, especially on child. Also used in lymphomas treatment that usually difficult to be recovered. Used by patient with skin pigment tumor (melanomas).

Vinorelbine (noranhydrovinblastine) produced by anhydrovinblastine as a medicine to block glad and nerve splitting.

Reported, total alkaloid contents in Tapak Dara leaf about 0.70 – 0.82%. to get 50 mg of
Vincristine and 2 g of vinblastine, it need 1 ton of dried leaves. While in whole of tapak Dara plant contains 0.2 – 1%.

Some several main compounds can be used to cure other diseases, like leurisine and vindoline that used as insulin substitute, because these reduce hypoglycemia on diabetic patient. Ajmalicine is a medical material of blood stream stimulant to brain and whole body system.

Materials

22 Tapak Dara leaves
1 Fennel (Feoniculum vulgare)
Wood skin of pulasari plant (Alyxia reinwardti)

How to make it

Wash finely whole materials, then boil them with 3 glasses of water. Add palm sugar as much as needed, let it until boiled, and the water left over a half. After it cool off, filter it and drink it tree times a day (morning, noon, and at night) each a haft of glass.

Evenly, patient will recover after consumed this ingredient for a month.

Fennel and pulasari are herbs that are contains of anethol and kumarin compound. Both alkaloid compounds be used to improve taste and as a scented substance in medicine, jamu, spice, toothpaste industry etc. while kumarin compound has benefit as mouth sores medicine, gastric strengthener and gastric cramped (K. Heyne, 1987)

In chemotherapy, the usage of vinblastine medicine has impact in white corpuscle/phabocy reduction (leucoenia) with various grades and will be normal in 1 – 2 weeks after medicine usage has stopped. Effect to red cell and platelet is very small. There for in normal body condition, you must be careful with some dosages. The side effect of vinblastine poisonous is corpuscle/phabocy reduction (leucoenia) that being produced by backbone marrow.

If nerve is being poisoned, you must restrict in vincristine medicine usage. But after using vindesine medicine, nerve poisoning and marrow pressure are not harder then if you use both vincristine and vinblastine medicines. If that four medicines being used, will effect to blood coagulant forces reduction (thrombocytopaenia) and baldness (alopecia). It is better if you consult it with your doctor before.

Comersial product of vinblastine and vincristine in medical trade, popular with name vincaleukoblastine sulfate (vinblastine sulfate, VBL, Velban) and leurocristine sulfate (vincristine sulfate, VCR, Oncovin).

Breast cancer can infect to both woman or man. But don't worry, tapak dara will be its natural solution.

Herbal Remedies | Allay Cancer with White Turmeric (Cucrcuma zedoaria)

Although it need further research, people sure that white turmeric (curcuma zeodaria/Zedoariae Rhizoma) able to block cancer cell growth. In some cases, and some literature have approved it. If you interest to consume it, don't be deceived from other turmeric variant that is look like cucrcuma zedoaria, which its power is not afficacious as white turmeric to against cancer disease.

People can be deceived, think that curcuma (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roburgh) as turmeric. Because in some places curcuma plant has been named as white tumeric (cucrcuma zedoaria). In indonesia its named temu-lawak. Its rhizome like of turmeric (curcuma domestica or curcuma longa), but little bigger. If tumeric having a saffron color, curcuma being colored yellow and tending to whitish after it being chopped and dried up. The other curcuma that being called wrongly as white tumeric is temu mangga (curcuma mangga). usually many people use it for fever condition (antipiretika), weight loose, irritancy or asphyxia. And also frequently being used to to tighten woman vagina after puerperal/childbirth.

There are greater galingale (kaempferia galanga) species that is thought as turmeric, its name is temu-kunci (kaempferia angustifolia), that able to being used for anti-diarhea and anti-dysentery. And kunci-pepet tulen (Kaempheria rotunda) that usually being used as anti-inflammation, antipiretika and to arouse appetite.

So let us correct these terminology problems, that is complicated wrongly. The herb that we being discussed is temu-mangga (curcuma mangga) and its variant, white turmeric (Curcuma zedoaria). In herbal society it being used to treat several stomach problem. It turmeric has a whitish skin but you can find a pimple like a small potato around its root. ciri white tumeric that is usefull to against cancer desease are: it has a whitish skin, its flesh colour is cream with manggo aromatic. Fragrance and it taste is not bitter.

Accordion to Dr. Retno S. Sudibyo, a researcher of PAU Bio tecnology UGM, we can eat its fresh root to get its expedience to against cancer. But don't eat to much, because it can causes diarhea if you're not resistant.

Composition :

Both temu-mangga (curcuma mangga) and white turmeric(curcuma zeodaria) contain of colorant yellow kurkumin (diarilheptanoid). The Encilopedia of Medical Plands book said that kurkumin has special quality as antioxidant and anti-inflammation. their antioxidant contain is stronger than vitamin E while their anti-inflammation contain is sronger than chemical hidrocortison/synthetic. The volatile oil component from cucrcuma zedoaria rimpangcontain of: Guaian derifatives (Kurkumol, Kurkumenol, Isokurkumenol, Prokurkumenol, Kurkurnadiol), Germakran derivatives (Kurdion, Dehidrokurdion); Seskuiterpen furanoid with eudesman skeleton (Kurkolon). Germakran skeleton (Furanodienon, Isofuranodienon, Zederon, Furanodien, Furanogermenon); Eleman skeleton(Kurserenon identical with edoaron, Epikurserenon, Isofurano germakren); Asam-4-metoksi sinamat (having the character of fungiStatic). From other research, there are kurkumanolid A, kurleumanolid B, and kurkumenon found in cucrcuma zedoaria.

American Institute of cancer report that cancer can be prevented using turmeric. the antioxidant inside cucrcuma zedoaria be functioning to prevent deoksiribonuklead acid (gene composer) from damage. The gene damage is one of a cancer appearance factors.

Kurkumin with feruloyl and 4-hydroxycinnmoyl are a anti inflammation composite that is contained in turmeric rhizome. kurkumin component very beneficial to against cancer, protect gene from damage and anti-inflammation contemporaneously. Because in cancer disease case inflammation is always happen.

Dr. Retno S. Sudibyo research (published by Tempo 30 mey 1999), give some results that curcuma mangga content of protein toxin, sejenis Ribosome in Activating protein (R.I.P). This is a sejenis that has ability to deactivated ribosom, so that protein synthesis inside cell being hampered. Its easily for this protein to penetrate cancer cell then to penetrate the healthy cell. It causes cancer cell can not proliferate because cancer cell has age limit. At last it will be vanished automatically.

So the conclutions are:
R.I.P - block cancer growth, and will vanished automatically.
The antioxidant content of kurkumin protects fom cell damage. Where gene damage is one of a cancer appearance factors.
Their anti-inflammation content is usefull to prevent inflammation that always tag along cancer disease.
