Community cancer and HIV / AIDS are suggested not to replace conventional treatments for this have been executed with the fruits of the camera. Because, until now there has been no clinical trials that prove the fruit from Papua contain anticancer substances as well as HIV / AIDS.
Said former Head of Hematology-Oncology Division, Department of Medical Science in FKUI / RSUPN Prof. dr Zubairi Djoerban
Zubairi who daily deal with cases of cancer and HIV / AIDS said he saw many patients with both diseases were very quickly died after stopping conventional medical treatment and switching to alternative medicine wore red fruit.
”Many people who have HIV / AIDS who died after stop taking antiretroviral drugs (ARVs), and shifted to the red fruit that cost hundreds of thousands,”said Zubairi.
The high interest of the people on the red fruit, according to specialists in this disease, driven by the desperation of the patient. Given the many parties who currently identify with the death of cancer. In fact, nowadays many drugs have been shown to treat cancer.
Plus, many parties who have business interests deliberately promoting red fruit as a cure for cancer, AIDS, hepatitis, lower cholesterol, uric acid, etc. In fact, so far the research says that red fruit called latin pandanus conoideus it has the potential for new prevention of cancer, not treatment.
Fruit red”potentially prevent cancer, rich in antioxidants and beneficial fatty acids. Antioxidants is to prevent the emergence of free radicals (unstable molecules) that can damage body cells.”
Antioxidants
Zubairi that the seminar will discuss the ‘Complementary and Alternative Medicine in Cancer’ said substance to obtain antioxidants, the red fruit is not the only source. Fruits and vegetables that we encounter everyday like tomato, mango, spinach, beans also are rich in antioxidants.
However, Zubairi word again, that should also note, not always positive effect of antioxidant substances. For example, take supplements containing beta carotene, which is one type of antioxidant substances, actually increase the incidence of lung cancer incidence and mortality in smokers. It is stipulated in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, Vol 95, No. 1, January 1, 2003.
So, still needed a very long process and costly to come to the conclusion that the red fruit can cure cancer. Required circuit test and verification phases in order for a drug substance can be classed as an illness.
”Some of the steps that must be passed, among others, test the existence of specific active substances have an effect on the disease, clinical trials on animals and humans to test against. All steps must be conducted through either method.
Concerning the efficacy of red fruit as medicine, some time ago Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) also said the juice has not been able to categorize the red as a traditional medicine, food supplements, functional foods, natural medicine, or modern medicine. For the determination of these categories to go through a scientific and empirical evidence (Media 28 / 3).
Director of Original, at the national seminar ‘Pro Contra Red Fruit’ some time in Jakarta said the categorization process of a product to be seen whether the claim has met the requirements and capabilities. ”When all was done, BPOM will decide what category of product entry.”
Regarding the red fruit, Ritiasa recognize existing five people who filed claims for the efficacy of Papua’s indigenous plants. But none was decided. Responding to doubts BPOM, the inventor of the properties of the red fruit I Made Budi remain with the belief that red fruit can cure various diseases.
