This morning (around 5 am) when I woke up I felt bloated and nauseous in my stomach, my feet felt cold, my head felt heavy and my body shivered, it seemed like I caught a cold. I just remembered last night I drank two large glasses of passion fruit syrup and it seems my stomach can't tolerate passion fruit syrup ice at night.
I just lay in pain because I couldn't take the manufacturer's medicine to treat flatulence, since I was a teenager I was used to herbal medicine and my body felt comfortable with herbal medicine.
around 7 am, I immediately went to the garden to take the curcuma and turmeric rhizome. I will make a herbal concoction with curcuma rhizome and turmeric to treat my flatulence.
Curcuma plant
curcuma rhizome
Before making the concoction, I will share the data I obtained about the nutrients contained in Curcuma and turmeric.Based on data sourced from https://hellosehat.com/herbal-alternatif/herbal/manfaat-temulawak/?amp=1

Turmeric plant
Turmeric rhizome also contains curcumin compounds which function as antioxidants and anti-inflammatory.
Turmeric rhizome
Based on the nutritional content and chemical compounds contained in the rhizome of curcuma and turmeric, the two herbs can be used to treat flatulence. Based on some literature that I read, curcuma rhizome and turmeric have also gone through a series of laboratory tests and passed clinical trials to treat various inflammation problems and treat flatulence.
PREPARATION
After getting the rhizome of curcuma and turmeric rhizome from the garden, I immediately cleaned both of them from the soil, the hardest part to clean the soil is the segment, the soil will hide in the folds of the tubers.
Turmeric
Curcuma
Now I have the rhizome of curcuma and turmeric that have been cleaned of, the ingredients that I use to treat flatulence are:
2 segments of curcuma
3 segments of turmeric
100 grams of palm sugar/brown sugar
1 liter of water
This herb has a slightly bitter taste and I don't like the bitter taste, that's why I added palm sugar, if you don't have palm sugar, you can replace it with brown sugar.
How to make the concoction, namely:
1.Wash the curcuma rhizome with running water, then put it in a blender.
2.Wash the turmeric rhizome with running water, then put it in a blender.
3.Add 200 mL of water into the blender, then puree all the ingredients.
4.Put all the ingredients that have been finely blended into the pan.
5.Add 800 mL of water to the pot.
6.Add palm sugar to the pot, then boil over low heat until it boils.
7.Turn off the stove after boiling
8.Strain the potion and drink while it's warm.
After drinking the concoction of curcuma and turmeric, sweat immediately came out of the pores of the skin, my stomach that was originally cold began to feel warm and my head which was feeling heavy immediately felt light, I could immediately feel the efficacy of this traditional herb after drinking it.
This herb is also effective for treating stomach ulcers and ulcer symptoms, drink it in the morning and evening, to treat flatulence caused by colds, menstruation and other gastric disorders caused by food factors.
that's the herbal recipe that I can share with hive lovers, hopefully it will be useful to increase our knowledge about herbs.
