Re: Food for the brain

Setahu kami Kunyit yang bahasa Inggrisnya Turmeric, kalau dalam jamu bisanya 
disukai wanita untuk Membersihkan darah. ( Blood Purifier ). Sekarang sudah 
banyak dijual dalam bentuk Kapsul dengan merek dagang Cucurmin. Disampaing itu 
Sangat baik untuk Hati dengan Fungsi menjaga kesehatan Hati sehingga Tidak 
cepat lelah, disamping itu juga bisa menaikan nafsu makan. 

Menurut kami bagi yang mau mencoba silakan saja, tidak ada effect sampingannya 
kok. Cuma biasanya kalau jamu2 / Herb cara kerjanya agak pelan dan bersifat 
Long Term .

Sebetulnya kalau mau digali dan diteliti, masih banyak Jamu2 an yang 
bermanfaat. Mudah2 yang asli Indonesia ini tidak keburu dipatentin oleh orang 
Lain. 

Salam

Budiman
