  • Description

    Temuluwak known as Java ginger, Javanese ginger, or Javanese turmeric is a plant species belonging to the ginger family. It is known in Javanese as temulawak, in Sundanese as koneng gede and in Madurese as temu labak. The rhizome is rich in nutrients such as curcumin, essential oils, phleandren, protein, camphor, fiber, glucoside, antioxidants, turmerol, borneol, calcium, iron, potassium and sodium.

    It is believed to streamline the digestive process, increase immunity and appetite, have antibacterial, anti fungal and anti inflammatory properties, prevent cancer, heart attacks and arthritis, lower cholesterol and also prevent premature aging.

    Unsurprisingly, the efficacy of temulawak has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine. Engaging personally with the growers, at GVI we hand pick the highest grade to meet your requirements.
