Here I am sharing below what I found in google. These days people are more and more trusting google than these self-serving doctors.
Hematologic Health: The Philippine Department Of Science and Technology is currently conducting research on the anti-viral, anti-inflammatory properties of the Tawa-Tawa plant, which are hypothesized to stimulate platelet production by the bone marrow in dengue patients. This discovery could potentially lead to the eventual development of treatments for dengue fever and tuberculosis.
Bone Health: Tawa-Tawa has anti-arthritic properties as an effect of its tissue inhibitor constituents called metalloproteinase that prevents cartilage degeneration.
Cardiovascular Health: To counteract high blood pressure, Tawa-Tawa inhibits the activity of angiotensin converting enzyme that is supposed to produce vasoconstrictive effects on the blood vessels. Result is a lowering of blood pressure, decrease in heart rate and increase in cardiac output.
Skin Health: The latex (milky substance) found within the stem of the Tawa-Tawa plant is a good treatment for sores, boils, warts, and fungal infections. When dried and crushed, Tawa-Tawa can be used as a wound dressing. The ethanol present in Tawa-Tawa extracts has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties effective against these skin infections.
Digestive Health: With an active flavonoid constituent, E. hirta is known to have anti-diarrheal properties. It is also known as a potent anti-helminthic or deworming agent.
Respiratory Health: This herb is good for asthmatics. When combined with beta 2 blockers like salbutamol and terbutaline sulfate, Tawa-Tawa dissolves sticky mucus and relaxes the bronchial muscles resulting in the relief of asthmatic symptoms. Take 3 to 4 cups of boiled Tawa Tawa leaves daily, or burn and inhale smoke of Tawa-Tawa leaves like a cigarette.
Immunity: Constituents of Tawa-Tawa like tannins, hexane, flavenoids, triterpene, andsterols among others, make it effective in boosting the body’s immune system and protecting it against infections, malignancies and oxidative damage.
