Turmeric Liver Tonic from organic farmer Gil Carandang
Mr. Gil Carandang is known as the father of Philippine Organic Farming. He used to live the big city life in New York City but found no fulfillment in just money. He migrated back to the Philippines and setup the first organic farm. Since then he has taught many and still guides the organic movement. I know this because I’ve been to his farm and I’ve talked to the man himself.
One of his products is a Turmeric Liver Tonic, a big bottle sells for P 600 in the Saturday Makati Organic Market. My mother in law bought a bottle and tried it on herself. My mother in law’s testimony is that her arthritis pain on her hands and toes were eliminated by taking a mere 1 table spoon of the Turmeric Liver Tonic each morning. And it took only 2 mornings. Wow, fast acting stuff.
I tasted the Turmeric Liver Tonic and it is not unpleasant, so it is easy to take for the finicky people. I took a photo of it. No labels. Just a little sticker that says Turmeric and 1 liter.
I remember making our own Turmeric Tea by mashing turmeric and pouring hot water on it. This sure is easier. If you have any liver related problems, which mostly everything, you may want to give Gil Carandang’s Turmeric Liver Tonic a try.
In the Philippines, turmeric is known as “luyang dilaw” / yellow ginger … but it is really orange.
