I have been fascinated by Indonesian tropical medicinal plants for a quarter of a century.
Since it is not possible to handle 8,500 kinds of tropical medicinal plants, we will study and develop products from plants whose traditional use has been clarified or evidence based on modern science.
Pontsuk ginger is a plant registered with the Indonesian government as an Indonesian traditional health supplement jamu. In addition to the traditional use and experience of jamu, Japan research has revealed the effect of improving brain function, which will help solve social problems toward aging.
