Filipino folklore would not be complete without its many traditional, and oftentimes herbal medications, remedies, and healing methods. In fact, different regions of the country have methods and treatments that are unique to them. The bottom line is, the healing power of herbs – whether culled from the people of yore learned in a 21st century lab – has an effectivity all its own, that cannot be denied.
Among the world’s earliest civilizations, food and medicine were inextricably linked, and many plants were eaten for their health-giving properties. Take, for example, armies of slave workers who laboured to build the Egyptian pyramids. They survived on meal which included a daily ration of garlic in order to ward off pestilence and fevers.
Consider too, the dark age of Europe, well into the medieval period, when herbs were painstakingly grown in monasteries. Each monastery in face, had its own “Physics” garden, abounding in herbs that were used to treat the ailments of both the monks and the local folk who dwelled in the surrounding areas.
Ramon Tan, president of Carica Products offer a gift of health to correct various ailments, to improve immune system, take care of health and restore vigor. It has been around since 1995, and is distributed in both Japan and the Philippines.
The combination of extracts come from indigenous local fruits and vegetables, largely papaya, which are organically grown. The mode of extraction follows a traditional Japanese fruit fermentation process.
The fruits and vegetables come from the mountains of the Bondoc peninsula, to Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte, Mindoro, Batangas, Negros Oriental, Bataan, and La Union. From these areas, wild tropical fruits are gathered – naturally growing plants which have not been touched by pesticides and fertilizers.
Extracts from these fruits are extraordinarily healthy, marking the Philippines natural resources as lush and enhancing the well being.
