| Abstract |
Myrmecodia tea is made from 100% natural
ingredients derived from Borneo
Myrmecodia tuberosa. The herb was
traditionally used in Malaysia and
Indonesia as an alternative treatment
for cancer and tumor especially, in
breast, liver, lung, ovarian and brain
cancer. This plant is also used to
lower the glucose level in blood. This
plant is abundantly found in rural areas
but rarely found in urban areas.
Therefore, packing this plant into
teabag will help people enjoy the
benefits of this plant in a convenient
way. There is no risk of chemical
effects. Consumers can take the tea many
times in a day and would not cause any
harmful effects. Instead, the tea
contains bioactive compounds, such as
flavanoids that can act as powerful
antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-
diabetic and anti-cancer. Thus, there is
a great potential to market the
Myrmecodia tea as a health product and
as a pharmaceutical product for
medicinal purposes.
