That could be a goodnews. However, people may need to verify whether this could be true or not. Can you please add the link here of you said DOH recommending the use of tawa-tawa?
ReplyDeleteAs far as i know, no government agencies have not yet make any recommendations because studies for tawa-tawa is not yet done.
Hello, Mon.
ReplyDeleteJust to clarify. DOH is still in the process of testing tawa-tawa but "sees hope in 'tawa-tawa' as dengue cure". And just to verify, this blog does not mention that DOH "recommends" it. Latest testings suggest that it may have “some effect” in treating dengue patients.
