Tail. It is originally from Central Asia and Southeastern Europe and now can

Motherwort has a long history as traditional medicine in Central Europe, Asia
and North America has been used most widely for women’s health including
childbirth, afterbirth care, irregular menstrual cycles and premenstrual anxiety
due to its various phytohormones. Motherwort is an exclusive local medicinal
plant in Sarawak, Malaysia which also known as Ka ciam ma. During
confinement period, women usually having hard time to prepare their own
dishes. Due to this reason, we have invented cracker made from Ka ciam ma
which can be consumed in an instant way. This is very helpful for those who
are seeking nutritional dishes without the need to prepare it. Thus, Ka ciam
ma’s cracker is the best option for women around the world especially during
confinement period. |
