The Content and Properties
The research on treatment efficacy of red fruit was first performed by university faculty researchers in Jayapura namely Drs. I Made Budi M.S. as a nutritionist and university lecturers had carefully observed the traditional habit of people in Wamena, Timika and villages of Jayawijaya mountainous areas that consume Red Fruit. Observations on the local community entities, more robust and high stamina, and daily life in traditional native-paced and open restricted in dressing in the harsh natural conditions and sometimes quite cold weather at altitude mountains. Physical Privileges population that is rarely affected by other degenerative diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
By examining the content of nutritional composition, it was the intention of the Red Fruit juices contain lots of antioxidants (average content):
* Carotene (12,000 ppm)
* Beta-carotene (700 ppm)
* Tocopherol (11,000 ppm)
In addition to several other substances that increase endurance, among others: oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, dekanoat, Omega 3 and Omega 9 which are all active compounds antidote to the formation of free radicals in the body.
Beta-carotene serves to slow the ongoing buildup of plaque in arteries. Thus blood flow to the heart and brain take place without obstruction. Interactions with proteins increase the production of antibodies. This increases the number of natural killer cells and increase T cell activity and lymphocyte Helpers. An excerpt studies prove beta-carotene consumption 30-60 mg / day for 2 months to make the body can reproduce natural cells exterminator disease. The increase in natural cells that suppress the presence of cancer cells because it can neutralize free radical compounds carcinogens cause cancer.
In some limited research conducted by I Made Budi direct treatment methods with Red Fruit, researchers revealed a very high success in treatment efforts carried out against several diseases.
Which diseases can be cured by the proven efficacy of red fruit? The following are some of them
1. AIDS
Although the experts have many years of trying to make a cure for AIDS remains the cure is not found. Perhaps you yourself feeling insecure about the efficacy of red fruit on this one.

Agustina Sawery had dropped his weight from 50 kg to 27 kg. He had anal infection, impaired liver function, mouth bercendawan and lung infections. Agustina seemingly just waiting for the hour of his death. So he came to the Drs I Made Budi MS.Saat it Made is well known in Papua because often treat diseases such as cancer with an extract of red fruit. Then Agustina given red fruit extract taken three times daily.
Since the consumption of red fruit situation began to improve. Weight that had dropped to a 27 kg began to increase to 46 kg. Her skin is all busik be smooth again. Her hair was falling out began to grow again. Agustina become much fitter.
It is reported that the ability to cure AIDS red fruit is due to the red fruit containing tocopherol and beta-carotene are very high. Both content serves as an antioxidant and may enhance the immune system. Tocopherol and beta-carotene eventually combine to break down the amino acids needed by the virus that causes AIDS, HIV, so the virus can not establish his life.
2. Cancer and Tumors
Other efficacy of red fruit is the treating of cancer and tumors. Cancer and tumors without a doubt is one of the biggest causes of death. What is caused by cancer and the tumor? The disease is caused by hormones in the body that causes the growth of meat in the normal tissues.
Red fruit can cure cancer because of its tokoferol very high, reaching 11,000 ppm and 7000 ppm betakaroten achieve. Both compounds act as antioxidants and enhance immune system and prevent the propagation of cancer cells.
3. Stroke and Blood Pressure
Stroke is caused by a blood clot and the constriction of blood vessels. One cause of this disease are high blood pressure. High blood pressure causes blood clots so that blood vessels constrict, resulting in reduced blood supply. Moreover, blood vessels can rupture.

Red fruit contains tocopherols which can thin the blood and improving blood circulation so that the content of oxygen in the blood became normal.
4. Uric Acid
Gout is caused by disruption of liver function so that the liver produces excess uric acid. Finally uric acid deposited in the kidneys to stone and taken to the ends of fingers and toes and collect there.
Tocopherol in red fruit thin the blood and improve the work system from liver. Working system of the liver, after repair, to produce normal levels of uric acid.
5. Diabetes Mellitus (Diabetes)
The disease is caused by the pancreas gland is unable to produce insulin in sufficient quantities. As a result, the content of sugar in the blood increases.
