title: [The health benefits of gambir].
abstract: Gambir has been known as an all-purpose anti-aging drug. While its dosage must be carefully measured, as for any drug, fortunately Gambir is virtually non-toxic for humans. Based on pharmaco-historical and biological studies, 1-36 grams of Gambir is given per person. In an empirical study conducted in 2006, a potion containing 10 grams of Gambir was given to five people of mixed sex in the evening, at midnight, and before breakfast. Four of the subjects reported feeling well in the morning. Its effectiveness is naturally enhanced by daily regimen, appropriate exercise, well balanced and discreet diet, and the elimination of excessive stress.
