Resep Mahkota Dewa untuk penyakit kanker

Kanker Payudara
Merupakan jenis kanker kedua terbanyak yang menyerang wanita Indonesia. Utamanya menyerang wanita yang telah berumur 40 tahun ke atas. Wanita yang belum pernah melahirkan, mengalami kehamilan pertama di atas usia 35 tahun, tidak pernah menyusui anak, mengalami siklus menstruasi yang panjang (mendapat haid pertama kurang dari 12 tahun dan menopause lebih dari 50 tahun), pernah mendapat radiasi pada payudara, mengalami trauma pada payudara, mempunyai keluarga yang menderita penyakit ini, memiliki resiko tinggi untuk menderita kanker payudara.

Adanya benjolan kecil pada jaringan di sekeliling payudara, terasa keras, adanya kerutan-kerutan pada kulit payudara, keluarnya darah atau nanah dari puting susu, perubahan pada puting susu seperti gatal, terasa terbakar, dan tertarik ke dalam, dapat menjadi tanda-tanda kemungkinan terjadinya kanker payudara. Penyebabnya belum diketahui secara pasti, tetapi faktor yang memegang peranan dalam proses kejadian tumor adalah hormon estrogen.
Memeriksa perubahan yang terjadi pada payudara secara rutin perlu dilakukan, sehingga jika terdeteksi ada kelainan dapat segera diantisipasi. Untuk mendeteksi dini kanker payudara dapat melakukan pemeriksaan sendiri pada payudara setiap bulan (5-7 hari setelah haid), untuk mengetahui apakah ada kelainan atau tidak.

Kanker Leher Rahim (Serviks Uteri)
Merupakan jenis kanker yang paling banyak terjadi pada wanita Indonesia. Tingginya kasus kematian yang disebabkan oleh kanker serviks pada wanita Indonesia karena umumnya baru diketahui setelah stadium lanjut. Di negara maju, kasus kanker serviks sudah agak menurun. Hal ini karena adanya program Papsmear yang dilakukan secara teratur sebagai upaya untuk pencegahan skunder dan deteksi dini kanker serviks.
Gejala kanker serviks tergantung pada fase pertumbuhan. Pada fase dini (preinvasif) sering tidak menimbulkan gejala atau hanya sedikit sekali gejala, seperti keputihan. Pada fase invasif (lanjut) menyebabkan pendarahan vagina di luar masa haid, sakit dan pendarahan setelah bersenggama, rasa sakit pada daerah panggul, nafsu makan hilang, berat badan hilang, dan anemia karena pendarahan.
Penyebab kanker serviks belum diketahui secara pasti, namun diduga sekitar 95 % oleh sejenis virus Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), virus ini dapat menular melalui hubungan seksual. Ada beberapa faktor risiko yang dapat meningkatkan terjadinya kanker serviks, yaitu:
- Sering berganti pasangan hubungan seksual
- Berhubungan seksual di usia muda
- Kehamilan berulangkali (sering melahirkan)
- Infeksi virus pada serviks

Berikut resep tumbuhan obat yang digunakan untuk membantu pengobatan penyakit tersebut
(Kanker Payudara & Kanker Serviks)
60 gram temu putih + 5 gram buah mahkota dewa kering + 30 gram jombang kering + 30 gram rumput lidah ular kering, dicuci dan direbus dengan 1 liter air hingga tersisa 450 cc, disaring, airnya diminum 3 kali sehari.

Catatan : Lakukan secara teratur dan tetap konsultasi ke dokter.
Untuk perebusan gunakan periuk tanah, panci enamel atau kaca.

9.606 Spesies Tanaman Obat Ada di Indonesia

DENPASAR, KOMPAS.com — Indonesia memiliki sekitar 9.606 spesies tumbuhan yang mengandung khasiat tinggi untuk pengadaan obat-obatan alami guna penyembuhan berbagai jenis penyakit yang bebas dari efek samping.

"Hutan tropis yang dimiliki Indonesia sekitar 120 juta hektar. Di kawasan itu tumbuh spesies yang diketahui dan dipercaya mempunyai khasiat obat yang selama ini belum dimanfaatkan maksimal," kata Prof dr I Gusti Ngurah Nala dari Program Studi Ayurweda Fakultas Kesehatan Universitas Hindu Indonesia (UNHI) Denpasar, Minggu (24/5).

Ia mengatakan, cahaya sinar matahari yang tersedia sepanjang tahun disertai curah hujan yang mencukupi memungkinkan tumbuhnya beraneka jenis tanaman obat-obatan berkembang biak dengan baik.

"Dari ribuan jenis tanaman obat yang ada, hingga saat ini belum ada hasil penelitian secara pasti berapa persen di antaranya yang sudah dimanfaatkan untuk meningkatkan taraf kesehatan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat," ujar Ngurah Nala yang juga guru besar Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Udayana.

Prof Nala menambahkan, Indonesia yang memiliki ribuan jenis tanaman obat itu menerima permintaan dari sejumlah negara akan tumbuhan obat dalam bentuk simplisia, yakni bahan tumbuhan alami dalam keadaan kering yang belum diolah.

Permintaan tersebut setiap tahun terus meningkat dan kondisi itu mendorong para investor yang bergerak di bidang farmasi, obat tradisional dan jamu menangkap peluang tersebut dengan mengembangkan dan memproduksi obat-obatan sintetis, tanpa mengandung zat kimia dan efek sampingan.

Semakin majunya iptek, menjadikan alternatif bentuk olahan simplisia yang beredar di pasaran semakin bervariasi, antara lain dalam bentuk serbuk, tablet, pil, kapsul cairan, salep dan krim.

"Demikian pula produk olahan Indonesia menembus pasaran ekspor, antara lain Singapura, Malaysia, Hongkong, Korea, Jepang, Taiwan, India, Spanyol, dan Jerman," tutur Prof Nala.

Juvenile, Adults and Pregnancy Type Diabetes

By: Michael Green

Diabetes is a disease that when the body does not produce enough insulin to break down sugar in the blood. One can get diabetic if he does not consume correctly or does not take care of the body.

Yet, heredity play a big role in diabetes as well. Any type Diabetes can involve several parts of the body causing serious health problems. It can cause blindness, amputation of legs, or feet.

The three type Diabetes:
1. Type 1 Diabetes.
2. Type 2 Diabetes.
3. Gestational Diabetes.

The three-type-diabetes, cause blood sugar levels to become higher than regular. Yet, they cause it in different ways. Type 1 is rare than the second type.

Most of diabetics countrywide endure from type 2, which happens as the body becomes unable to handle insulin properly. Over 95% of diabetics are type 2, which is insulin-resistant.

Type 1 - Juvenile Type Diabetes
As, Type 1 diabetes mainly occurs in kids and young adults it's called also juvenile diabetes. This type diabetes affects 5% of all diabetics.

This type diabetes happens as the body's immune system hits the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas. As the body cannot turn blood sugar, or else glucose, into energy � either because it does not produce enough insulin or does not manage it correctly � diabetes will outcome. In the past, it was common that Type 1, the Juvenile Type Diabetes, only happens in children but recent research shows that it also can develop in adults.

This type-diabetes is treatable. Medicine, exercise and strict diabetes diet will be required to keep up health.

Adult-Type Diabetes - Diabetes Type 2
Some people develop a Diabetes Type � called secondary diabetes, Diabetes Type 2 This type diabetes is similar to type 1 diabetes, but adult-type diabetes - Diabetes Type 2 happens, as the body is not capable to respond to insulin normally.

The beta cells are not damaged by the immune system but by several other factors, such as cystic fibrosis or pancreatic surgery.

Unlike people with type 1 diabetes, nearly everyone people with type 2 diabetes can produce insulin, but insufficient to meet the body's needs.

Type Diabetes: Diabetes Gestational
Higher maternal women ages are to be expected to have the type diabetes-Diabetes Gestational. Additional important issues that cause diabetes: fatness and family records of Type 2 Diabetes.

A nationwide examination reveals that at the childbirth, approximately 4% of all pregnancies are usually complicated due to diabetes. Mothers diagnosed with diabetes for a long time, have fewer odds of transferring diabetes onto born babies.

Research found that the baby might develop diabetes after birth at anytime later in life.

In addition, having diabetes increases a mother's possibility of the following:

1. Preeclampsia, high blood pressure that happen while expecting.

2. Low glucose episodes, which can sometimes be deadly if not managed appropriately.

Luckily, these risks can be reduced by fine preparation and diabetes diet before the pregnancy, as well as early prenatal treatment, exercise and prompt care at the time of delivery.

Diabetic Testing Supplies info

By: Michael Green

Dealing with diabetes is more than just having to pop a pill with the wish that the drug will keep the ailment at bay. restraining blood sugar is a must for a diabetic person so anything from the list of diabetic testing supplies that can watch sugar level can be a huge help in introducing slowly protective measures. The same happens when it comes to monitoring a diabetic person�s blood pressure level at any time of the day. For people with Type I diabetes, paraphernalia for insulin shots is significant. Blood sugar strips, BP monitors and insulin shots paraphernalia are but a few samples of the diabetic testing supplies that people with this Diabetic have to subscribe to.

in case you are wondering which product you would buy, it will be best to ask your doctor for advises first. Heedlessly purchasing supplies off the Internet is not a assurance that these products may or can work for you. Most of the available diabetic testing supplies are cheap � that fact is true. But these would need each day and continuous use. SomeFew of the more expensive products can be a great investments but only if the person with diabetes actually has a need for them. Additionally, the nature of diabetes that the person has dictates what kind of diabetic testing supplies that the person have to buy. For example, Type I diabetics may need each day insulin injections and would as a result need a host of paraphernalia in this regard. There are some people with Type II diabetes who may not need these at all. Again, a lot depends on the advises of your doctor.

a number of the more wide use monitoring devices available in diabetic testing supplies shops include: glucose test strips, glucometers (glucose meters,) lancets and monitor kits. These, but, are typically inter-dependent on the actual brand of the monitor kits. This means that glucose strips must be used for specific makers of monitor kits, and not otherwise. When it comes to testing accessories, diabetic testing supplies are every so often brand-sensitive as well. These include glucose monitor electronic logbooks and data cables and software. There are also branded glucometer batteries.

Other online diabetic testing supplies stores also sell other monitoring devices like blood pressure monitors and urinalysis test strips. Though, these diabetic testing supplies stores are most likely the best place to order all the necessary paraphernalia required for insulin injections like needles and syringes; insulin pens (also works as insulin syringes); cooler; pumps; skin wipes and the actual insulin supply. A brief interlude of caution, though. There are many kinds, consistencies and brands of insulin, so a doctor�s prescription should be available when purchasing online. Try not to substitute the prescribe insulin for something cheaper or easier to purchase, because these can severely influence your metabolism. Replacing other insulin paraphernalia are acceptable though.

Other products that can be bought in the diabetic testing supplies stores may consist of diabetic foot care products; diabetic (orthopedic) shoes; nutritional supplements; cookbooks and informational books about diabetes; incontinence diapers (for elderly patients) and also supplies and paraphernalia for pets that are diabetic as well.

Pre diabetic situation

By: Michael Green

What is pre diabetic?
The sickness already exists in a person, but has not yet been diagnosed. This is the moment to prevent diabetes from developing , through physical exercises, balanced diet and weight loss.
About a third of the people who have diabetes, do not even know that the have the pre diabetic situation..


The illness is at last uncovered by high glucose levels in the blood. Though, it actually had secretly existed for many years.
Is there any one in your family who has diabetes? Are you fat? Do you dislike physical exercises? Along with you, there are many others who are built in a high risk category with the likelihood of developing diabetes in the future.
What can you do about it?
Many new studies have proved that you can delay or even stop diabetes whilst still in the pre diabetic condition.


What is pre diabetic?
That is a condition of hidden diabetes that shows up a a number of years previous to the appearance of type 2 diabetes and happens roughly always before diabetes is diagnosed.
In the pre diabetic condition the sugar level is higher than normal but not high sufficient to diagnose the illness.


How common is the pre diabetic?
About 15% of the population is in the pre diabetic condition. As the most up to date studies show, in this state long term damage takes place in the cardio-vascular system. Studies has shown that taking action whilst the high sugar level stage may stop the break out of type 2 diabetes in the future. This is the exact time to adopt a healthy diet and to exercise; the two of them are syggested for diabetics.
What are the risk factors of developing pre diabetic ?
-Family history: brother or sister or parent with diabetes.
-Being chunky
-Lack of physical activity.
-A women who gave birth to an overweight baby (over 4 kg)
-Age: the risk increases above the age of 45 and especially over 65.
How would you recognize if you are pre diabetic?
There are 2 different tests your doctor can use:
The fasting plasma glucose test (FPG) and the
Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).
If it will be found that you are pre diabetic, is it sure you will develop diabetes?
This is a grave condition, which can be dealt with , and must be under supervision.
You can in fact turn the clock back.


Studies has proves that it is probable to manage the pre diabetic and the diabetic by doing modifications in their diets and increasing their levels of physical activity.
Medications can reduce the growth of diabetes, but good diet together with physical activity are more efficient.
Thirty minutes of daily physical activity, with the correct diet and losing 5-10% of the body weight reduces the appearance of new diabetic cases by 58%.

How To Control Diabetes Naturaly-00-2167

By: M.G. Blanford

You can control diabetes. If you are diagnosed with Type II diabetes, the first thing you need to do is get a blood sugar monitor so that you can keep a record of your blood sugar. If you or a loved one has recently been diagnosed with diabetes, be aware that you can control diabetes.

Many people who are first diagnosed have a period of time where they are in denial. This is true believe me, I was for several weeks. Although Type II diabetes has become a national epidemic, many people refuse to believe that they could have this disease.

Many people who are not overweight or who do not eat a lot of sugar have also been diagnosed with Type II diabetes, like me. I was 6'2", weighed 200lbs, was celebrating my 45th birthday and had never been ill! It can strike anyone.

One of the best things you can do to control diabetes is to be aware of the Glycemic Index that is given to certain carbohydrates. Those with Type II diabetes are warned to stay away from certain carbohydrates such as;

1. Potatoes, highest ranked on the Glycemic Index
2. Corn Flakes, among highest ranked
3. White rice, among the highest ranked
4. White Bread, among the highest ranked

High glycemic foods take a long time to digest in the system of a diabetic. The glucose, or sugar, stays in the blood because the system of a diabetic is unable to process the refined sugars and flours. Being aware of which carbohydrates rank high on the Glycemic Index is just one way to monitor the glycerin, which is the amount of glucose in the blood. It is imperative for a diabetic to monitor their glycemia.

I must admit that Tony the Tiger and I were the TEAM when I was growing up. A bowl or two of Kellogg Frosted Flakes and a cup or two of milk in the morning made me feel GRRREAT!! But Who Knew? These are only two precursors to diabetes.

However, there are many Good Glycemic Index foods too!
Some of the foods that rate low on the Glycemic Index include most fruits and vegetables. Even though fruits and vegetables contain sugar, the sugars contained in these good glycerin foods digest into the system at a lower rate and also provide valuable nutrients to the diabetic.

Other good glycemic foods include wholegrain breads and pastas. If you or a loved one has Type I or Type II diabetes, you should switch to whole grain breads and pastas made from wheat flour. This can be tremendously helpful to anyone who wants to manage their glycemia as well as anyone who wants to follow such low carb diets. Basmati rice is also considered one of the good glycemic foods.

It is not a matter of eliminating carbohydrates when using diet to control diabetes, but understanding which carbohydrates rate high on the Glycemic Index. Diabetes is a disease that can be controlled by proper diet, monitoring blood sugar, and following doctors orders as far as medication.

The effect of the Glycemic Index on the body is that it allows diabetics to know which carbohydrates are the ones that can cause the most damage and those that break down easily in the system. The effect of the Glycemic Index on the body gave birth to some very popular low-carb diets such as The South Beach Diet and other diets that monitored carbohydrate ratings. The effect of the Glycemic Index on the body is crucial to anyone who wants to monitor their blood glucose level.

There are also some indications that it can be an inherited disorder. If you have a first degree relative who has diabetes, there is a very good chance that you may inherit this condition. You should bring this matter to the attention of your physician so he or she can do blood tests to determine if you are at risk for diabetes.

Exercise plays a very important role in controlling diabetes also. I was confused as are many diabetics as to the type of exercise I could do. I consulted my Doctor, who is a marathon runner, and his suggestion was to start running. Well, at 45 years old and no running experience, I didn't think that would be for me. However, I do like walks in the park with my two favorite women. What you do is up to you, just be sure to have fun!!
