And she is very crazy-funny and very lovely at her age...on the l8th of Nov.2007, she will turn 85 yrs young and got the same life motto by way of saying "Maayo pay inyo kong ingnong ug bu**** kay sa Tigulang".

Did you know that many of the Philippines “indigenous vegetables” like malunggay, sambong, banaba and lagundi are sources of antioxidants, healthy oils and other useful substances.

Alice G. Ilaga, head of the Department of Agriculture's Biotechnology Program Office says most of these plants are already being used as herbal medicines in the past centuries.

“We have the advantage as a tropical country, because we can find a lot of these useful plants right in our own backyard,” she said.

Ilaga said the DA-BPO is currently eyeing several plants and vegetables, seen currently as among the most promising of the lot.

“First on the list, of course, is malunggay. Then you have sambong, banaba and lagundi,” she said. “These have been found to contain active pharmaceutical ingredients.”

The DA-BPO's list goes even further to include mangosteen, chichirica, luyang dilaw, saluyot, bawang and atswete.

Despite the abundance of these plants in the country, there is however, no widescale propagation nor are there any efforts to extract substances due to the absence of facilities and standards.

So far, only a few private firms have put their money on these indigenous veggies.

“Unfortunately, the Philippines has yet to tap the $1-billion world market for natural ingredients. As of now, our market share is probably very insignificant, at less than one percent,” she explained.

To show how small the local industry is, Ilaga noted that the current supply of these veggies, such as the malunggay, could not even satisfy the needs of its own domestic market yet.

For the Philippines to take a share of the billion-dollar market, Ilaga said the government should first identify which plants, veggies or fruits it would focus on.

“We have already commissioned a study to assess and validate the world market and identify the 10 most in demand commodities, which the country can potentially supply,” she said.

The DA-BPO expects to receive the results of the study by end-November, after which it would revise its own list of potential plants.

After identifying which plants it would focus on, the Philippines must also prepare and ensure an ample supply of the necessary planting materials for a particular crop, such as seeds and inoculants, Ilaga said.

In this case, biotechnology is critical for the mass propagation of planting materials through tissue culture, for instance.

“But what is even more critical is to formulate standards from the farming practices, down to the extraction of the oils and substances needed from a plant or vegetable,” she stressed.

Ilaga explained that benchmarks are needed to ensure that all raw materials that would be exported by the country would have quality at par with world standards.

For this reason, Ilaga said they have been lobbying for funds, which will be used for the clinical trials, facilities and further studies.

Next step, she said, was to open world export markets through trade missions and participation in exhibits and fairs, as what the DA and the Department of Trade and Industry has been doing for quite some time.


Sambong
But despite the fact that the Philippines already has much of these much-coveted resources and their respective scientific researches, a lot of hard work has yet to be done.

Ilaga even admits that it may take three to five years before the country could fully develop its own natural ingredients industry.

In the meantime, the DA-BPO has focused much of its efforts in preparing the Philippine market to grab a bigger share of the lucrative billion-dollar industry.

As such, the researches and clinical trials continue, particularly for the 10 promising indigenous plants, four of which had been described briefly by Ilaga.

Malunggay

Dubbed as the “miracle vegetable,” the lowly malunggay has been proven to provide numerous benefits, using its pods, flowers, leaves, oil, roots and seeds.

Malunggay, or horseradish tree (scientific name, Moringa oleifera L.), has been found by biochemists and molecular anthropologists to be rich in vitamin C and A, iron and high density lipoprotein (HDL) or good cholesterol.

It can also hike male potency and be used as feedstock for biofuels.

Ilaga said that according to private sector projections, some 500,000 hectares of land are needed to meet the domestic requirement for malunggay.

For now, there are only several malunggay nurseries nationwide, each covering some one to 10 hectares of land.

Sambong

According to Ilaga, sambong contains essential oils, such as camphor, which can be used to treat colds; Borneol, which can be used for anticancer medicines; and powder, which can reportedly dissolve kidney stones.

Meanwhile, published researches indicate that sambong (Blumea Balsamifera) have “antidiarrhetic and antigastralgic properties.”

Sambong can also be used as an expectorant and can be given for worms and dysentery.

Known as one of the most commonly used medicinal herbs, sambong is a “diuretic, and is used in cases of hypertension and mild to moderate congestive heart failure.”

Sambong is also one of 10 herbs that have been approved by the Department of Health. (Additional source: www.philippineherbs.com/sambong)

Banaba

Ilaga explained that Banaba has long been popularized by the Japanese in the form of a tea, and has been believed to contain antiobesity substances.

She added that they are currently studying the corosolic acid found in banaba, which is believed to help cure diabetes.

According to published researches, Banaba can indeed help cure diabetes, fight obesity, regulate blood pressure, aid the digestive system and ease urination.

Findings have shown that for centuries, banaba has been used in Filipino folkloric herbal medicine for the treatment of diabetes.

Also known as Queen's Flower, Crepe Myrtle and the Pride of India, banaba has been found to contain high concentrations of dietary fiber and minerals such as zinc and magnesium. (Additional source: http://her-bal-medicine.philsite.net/)

Lagundi

As for lagundi, Ilaga says its substances can treat colds, flu and asthma effectively.

True enough, published researches have shown that lagundi, which contains Chrysoplenol D, can provide relief from asthma, pharyngitis, rheumatism, dyspepsia, boils, diarrhea, cough, colds, fever and flu and other bronchopulmonary disorders.

Chrysoplenol D is a “substance with antihistamine properties and muscle relaxant.”

Studies have likewise shown that Lagundi (scientific name: Vitex negundo) “can prevent the body's production of leukotrienes which are released during an asthma attack.”

Lagundi has been found useful for the removal of worms and boils.

Its leaves, flowers, seeds and root can all be used as herbal medicine.

We need good police officer - incorruptible police officers!  Is this still possible?

My sister is a police officer in Davao.  Her husband was a police officer too. They have 3 young kids - 2 girls and a boy, the boy being the youngest.  In February of 2003, my brother in law was shot and killed in a drug buy and bust operation. He was full of idealism that through him he can make the Davao a drug-free and peaceful place for his kids.  He died . Allegedly another police officer tipped off the drug people of the operation. 

I thought so too!  Gaka imagine nagud nako ang mga TB boys wearing sunglasses like some kind of hunk, mag adto sa FCB to check on this Hot Babe!

That's also good, John.  Kaso sa amo especially akong mga bugoy na manghud lalaki, ipasabong man ang money busa we opted to send goods.  Padala mi money for vitamins for the kids, ipalit man bugas so para sigurado, palitan nlang namo vitamins gikan dre.  Pag naa silang Lumine didto, other than money, ila nang ipag shopping ug groceries ang mga manghud na de pamilya na.

lisud kaayo mangita ana na dvd oi maayo gani akong manghud na naay friend gabaligya ug mga pinoy stuff, ga saad nko daan. dili ra ba pwede mag copy noh kon naay makabalo hehehe.

tama bitaw, willmerit!  kasabot ko imong feelings oi!  sahay gani magpabuyag among mga manghud na lalaki, kalami jud ulion ug pagkusion nang bugan! 

Below is an old news but I am sharing this with you because one of the 7 priests is a native of Cogon, Tagbilaran City.  He is Father JOvito Rata.  Father Giovanni Gamas is also a Filipino!


'The Magnificent Seven'
Capital diocese to ordain its largest group of priests in decades

Some got the calling young in life, others later. One has a doctorate in engineering. The one thing they all have in common -- joy in joining the priesthood today in the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament in Sacramento.

They have been called "The Magnificent Seven," a reflection of the size of the group and their significance to the Catholic Diocese of Sacramento.

These men make up the largest number of new priests to be ordained here in more than four decades -- and among the most by any diocese in the country this year.

This morning, they will don the vestments that symbolize their commitment to the church in an elaborate ordination ceremony and celebration at the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament.

They trained to be priests in the midst of the recent turmoils of the Catholic Church. Several entered seminary in 2002 -- the year the national clergy sexual abuse scandal erupted. Accusations and costly settlements stained the church.

But the calling for these men -- Matthew Blank, Chris Frazer, Giovanni Gamas, Derek LaBranch, Uriel Ojeda, Jovito Rata, and George Snyder Jr.-- rose above this acrimony.

Now, after years of training and more rigorous screening than priests of previous generations, the seven will prostrate themselves at the cathedral and begin a new life as the church enters a new era.

"All the troubles of recent years made them examine if this is what they really want, and they do," said Bishop William K. Weigand, spiritual leader of the Catholic Diocese of Sacramento. "They're going into this with their eyes wide open. They're an exceptional group."

"The Magnificent Seven" nickname -- given to them by church leaders -- embarrasses the men, and several laugh when asked about it. They are much more comfortable talking about the priesthood. It's a life they know many people don't understand.

Two answered the call to the ministry in their 30s after years in the work force. Three made their decision to become priests as teenagers. And two others say they felt the presence of divine intervention as children.

"I knew, I just knew," said Rata, 29, who says he has wanted to be a priest since he was 6.

Why someone would choose the priesthood is a mystery to some people, unthinkable to others. But these men are joyfully prepared to take vows of celibacy and obedience, serve others and work long days that often begin with an early morning Mass and end with nightly meetings. They will earn about $950 a month.

"I've been searching all my life for this. I've truly been blessed," says Snyder, 38, who was active at St. Vincent Ferrer Parish in Vallejo before entering the seminary.

Snyder said his family members had mixed feelings about his decision. "They said, 'You already do enough for the church.' But I told them, 'This is what I was meant to do.' " Now, he said, they are his biggest supporters.

Frazer, 28, was baptized a Methodist and converted to Catholicism in the eighth grade. Raised in the Lincoln and Roseville area, he attended Jesuit High School where he first considered becoming a priest. He said the scandals only made him more certain.

"It just made it clearer," he said. "The church needs more good priests, and I hope that I can be one."

Fewer men are finding life in a clerical collar appealing. In 2007, 466 men will be ordained for the priesthood in the United States, according to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

That's more than a 50 percent drop since 1965 when 994 men took their sacred oaths. The number of Catholics in the United States has increased to about 70 million, making it the largest faith group in the country.

"We need more priests, that's clear and simple," says Sister Mary Ann Walsh, spokeswoman for the USCCB. "There are communities without priests, there are dioceses that haven't ordained in years."

As he prepares for ordination, LaBranch, 28, thinks about his pastor, -- the late Rev. Richard Doheny of St. Mel Parish in Fair Oaks -- who asked him to consider life in the priesthood. LaBranch realizes how influential priests can be.

"It's a huge responsibility. Believe me, I think about it every day," he says.

They are a close group. There's a constant buzz of conversation when they're together, even some jokes in Latin.

Sige lang, willmerit, mag pray na lang ta na malipayon sya sa iyang gipili na life.  take it easy lang pod, wala na ka nagkulang pero pwede pa pun-an hehehe

arang gajud sakita mag pluck ug eyebrows oi! 

Hala Gem, na Heroic Bol-anon na kuno ko!  Sige lang Gem, kay Heroic mother and wife man pod ka diha sa inyong panimalay!

Mao lang ni akong ma ingon nimo, willmerit, lisud kaajo mangarap para sa ubang tawo.  kita, gusto ta makalampos sila atong mga manghud ug maharuhay pod ang kinabuhi pero naa pod silay lahing ideya unsa ang gusto nilang kinabuhi.  Pero, kon mangayo sya nimo ug second chance, tagai intawon pod - kana kon sya ang moduol nimo, mangayo pasaylo sa wala nya paghatag ug balor sa inyong mga sakripisyo.  Bisan unsaon, maluoy man jud ta kay igsoon man. 

Many times. One example, back in college, I was lost.  I didn't know what to do.  I seached my way, got lost some more.  I then ended up being interviewed by the Dominincan sisters only to be told, go out to the world and spread your wings!  be not afraid...

So people, it's okay got got lost, just keep on seaching and God will surely lead the way.

When I was in college, during weekends, I helped the nuns of the Mother Theresa Orphanage fed and clean the kids that were left behind by their parents.  It was a very emotionally-charged activity but it was emotionally-rewarding too!

I volunteered to give blood, even if I was crying while filling up the forms!  Guns will not scare me but needles do!  But I had to overcome my fear so I may be able to help a person live!  Besides, it was my promise to God when Mom was fighting for her life in Cebu for a critical kidney surgery that no matter what, I will give blood, in return for those many people who gave blood for Mom.

Arigato, Orchids san!

maklaro jud ba na ang isda gi sentensyahan while fresh pa kaayo!

Do BOl-anons need a Physician of  this kind?  I hope not really many!  Well, it is nice having one of those specialists. Congratulations to this lady!....I just hope, I will not need her care/ attendance and/or services in the future.

I like this message.  Yes, we all are happy and proud to have a Boholana Neurologist but we sure do hope and pray that we won't be needing her services! 

Hahahha you all make me LOL!  Ginger, da binsi, Asinfairy, Bambi and Happy, thanks for your greetings!  I didn't even know what I did to deserve the title Heroic Bol-anon! 

Thank you all for bearing with me and sharing your views and experiences with me! 

Road sign?  ka remember mo in bygone years naay sign sa kalsada where men are working: SLOW MEN WORKING!  hahahha what a sign!

If I die today, not in 17 seconds ha, I will write a will and testament of my love to my family and to all my friends.  For TB, I think I have enough time to tell you guys how blessed I am for knowing cyber friends like you who led me back to the memories of my dear Bohol, my home - the place i grow up wanting to leave from and now that i am older, the place I want to go home to. And when I get to heaven, I will ask the Lord to cast His magic wand (like a fairy?  ) so that the people I love and who loves me will not feel the pain and will not miss me and that they will only remember the good things I have done and I hope, in return they will do the same to others.

Thanks, beautiful ladies! hahahah the last time I checked yesterday morning, I was a senior member (busa siguro daghan ko senior moments! ngek!) so I must have had turned a hero yesterday too!  Today is my 15th day of being a member of TB!

It's 10 am here, not good night yet but am logging for now to get ready for my lunch date!  until later!

Do you like Sake, Orchids?

gidala man na sa akong husband sa ilang office gipa tan aw sa iyang kauban na Chinese national, he said that's ok but not to use it often coz naa daw steroid! hmmm

Macky,

Question:  Unsaon man namo pagka member na wala man mi diha to attend the pre-membership seminar?  Thanks!

Grazie

Ganahan ko anang miso soup, orchids na daghan seaweeds and tofu! 

erratum: i mean, thanks, John! 

ma toink jud ko ani ug ika ulaw ko ning angkunon but i always thought na ang ujap gagmay nang mga shrimps.  thanks, jun for educating us!  i learn something!

sus, kadugay na namong kalibog unsa ning soro, ujap man diay ni!

that's true, jun.  lahi naman gud dayon ta perspective as what ms c2 said earlier.  kon kita pa tong tig dawat, sahay ma frustrate ta coz we were expecting more. anyway, i agree with you. there's no better cause of joy in my heart than giving.  when i go malling, dili ko makakita ug things for myself but for my family.  and although it's easier na magpadala nlang money, lahi ra jud pod nang panagsaan naa silay madawat na balikbayan boxes na ilang kagubtan.  bisan unsa nlang sulod - toys, peanut butter, jersey shirts sa Sacramento Kings, shoes, candies, sabon, bags, popcorn ug uban pa.  magtapok tawon na sila then what makes me so happy kay ila pod gina bahin sa among ubang paryente ug mga kasilinganan!  that's the joy of giving...

Wow, nice pictures!  Men, naka anha na ka anang mga lugara?  Ka nice oi!

I like to eat fish!

Thanks, Bran for sharing!  mura bitaw sila ang pasyente!

gabuhat pod ko ana sushi, Orchids! Kompleto ko kagamitan.  Ay except for the square or rectangular pan na pang luto adtong egg.  Dire sa US, daghan kaayong Japanese restaurants.  I go to Japanese restaurants at least once in two weeks!

They can make their own composition and song arrangements but let our National Anthem be as it should be, same as we can not change the color of our flag! 

Mao ni chada mga pictures, Orchids!  ganahan ko labi nang naay ricefields with kids helping together! 

gabuhat diay ka ug sushi kanunay, Orchids?

Oh my!  Soro is what you make ujap?  Then I know that, have eaten that and am craving for that now!

Oh yeah, there you go!  that's a good idea!  Makatambal tuod na sa imong ubo and yet you can still be awake to keep wake with TB addicts tonight! 

I think you did right, Orchids!  Beautiful pictures!  Sige ha, next time kanang naa nka sa pictures with the same places you posted here.  Thanks again!

Yes, Cel, if it's declared holiday, it's with pay.  if you work during holidays, you got double pay!  And we said our country is poor? 

unsa naman tawon atong ipa inom nimo GEC na dili man ka mo inom ug cough syrup otherwise dili nka maka TB! hahahah

Wow!  nice pictures!  Ikaw nagkuha ana, Orchids?

karon pa ko kabasa ani na thread! nakadumdum na hinuon ko na dapat humanon na nako tog plastar akong LBC box para mapadala na aron maka abot sa ato before Christmas!

Yehey!  Wait, anus a gani mo larga, Gem?
