White Turmeric (Curcuma zedoaria) has long been known for its efficacy as an effective anti-cancer and tumor.

The benefits of White Turmeric are numerous, studies have done outside and inside country with pharmacology tests, toxicology in animals, and clinical trials of the benefit White Turmeric extract for cancer therapy. White turmeric can be used to reduce fever and sweats and treat bloody cough and food poisoning. White turmeric can also be chewed as a reduction of bad smell from the breath. Stew can cure toothache, digestion and colds.

Regarding the active ingredients of White Turmeric, the research results of the American Institute Cancer Report (New York Time) June 1, 1999 and also by experts of the Faculty of Pharmacy or PAU Biotechnology and PPOT UGM Yogyakarta stated that White Turmeric Contains:

• RIP (Ribosome Inacting Protein): Function of deactivating the development of cancer cells, destroying cancer cells without damaging surrounding tissue, blocking the growth of cancer cells.
• Antioxidant substances: To prevent gene damage.
• Anti-curcumin Substance: As an anti-inflammatory (anti-inflammatory).

With its active ingredients, White Turmeric can cure cancer and tumor, ulcers, hemorrhoid, sore throat, inflammation of the liver, bronchitis, tonsils, menstrual pain, vaginal discharge, acne, ulcers, diabetes and asthma, high blood pressure, stroke, Uric acid, as well as lowering cholesterol.


White turmeric should be combined with its use with other medicinal plants to obtain synergistic value in the treatment of cancer and to reduce the side effects it causes, for example, with a Semarang-Herbal nest of Papua-which has similar properties in the treatment of disease.

But, this plant have a deficiency. Such as:

• White turmeric can be obtained with various forms either liquid or capsule. Consuming too much turmeric can cause damage to white blood cells and red blood cells. this if it happens continuously can damage red blood cells such as anemia.

• One possibility when consuming white turmeric is a decrease in blood sugar. But this should be wary because if consumed in excess, sugar inside can drop dramatically. This condition can happen, called hypoglycemia or body condition of blood sugar deficiency.

• In addition to the herbal plant treatment is often used for beauty treatments, as well as with white turmeric. However, white turmeric is slightly harmful for those who have sensitive skin because the use of the skin on a continuous basis can irritate the skin.

• Although white turmeric is often used as an alternative treatment, it can decrease the effectiveness of medical drugs if used simultaneously. So it takes the supervision of a doctor if you want to consume it.

I apologize if there are many mistakes.
