Dapat dari email untuk dikongsi bersama..

Saya dapat tahu daripada doktor pusat kesihatan USM bahawa Bunga Lawang
digunakan untuk membuat ubat Tamilflu iaitu anti-virus untuk H1N1.
Jadi saya buat sedikit kajian dan mendapati bahawa ia adalah benar - sila
rujuk kepada Lampiran pdf.

Isteri saya terus beli bunga lawang (50sen sepeket), rebus dan paksa semua
orang minum - rasa payau.

Satu keajaiban adalah antara kesemua mangsa maut H1N1 di Malaysia, tiada
satu pun dari kalangan kaum India..... Ini mungkin kerana kaum India
mengamalkan penggunaan bunga lawang secara meluas dalam masakan mereka.

Semoga boleh kita amalkan
(Nanti harga bunga lawang melambung)

Usages

Culinary

Star anise contains anethole, the same ingredient which gives the unrelated anise its flavor.
Recently, star anise has come into use in the West as a less expensive substitute for anise in
baking as well as in liquor production, most distinctively in the production of the liquor
Galliano.

Medicinal
Star anise has been used in a tea as a remedy for rheumatism, and the seeds are sometimes
chewed after meals to aid digestion. As a warm and moving herb, Ba Jiao is used to assist in
relieving cold‐stagnation in the middle jiao, according to TCM.
Shikimic acid, a primary feedstock used to create the anti‐flu drug Tamiflu, is produced
by most autotrophic organisms, but star anise is the industrial source. In 2005, there
was a temporary shortage of star anise due to its use in making Tamiflu. Late in that
year, a way was found of making shikimic acid artificially. Roche now derives some of
the raw material it needs from fermenting E. coli bacteria. The 2009 swine flu (H1N1)
outbreak led to another series of shortages as stocks of Tamiflu were built up around
the world, sending prices soaring.[1]
Star anise is grown in four provinces in China and harvested between March and May. Its also
found in the south of New South Wales. The shikimic acid is extracted from the seeds in a ten‐
stage manufacturing process which takes a year. Reports say 90% of the harvest is already used
by the Swiss pharmaceutical manufacturer Roche in making Tamiflu, but other reports say
there is an abundance of the spice in the main regions ‐ Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and
Yunnan.
Japanese star anise (Illicium anisatum), a similar tree, is not edible because it is highly toxic
(due to containing sikimitoxin); instead, it has been burned as incense in Japan. Cases of illness,
including may inflammation.
