About gall stones

##### level-1 quote by Suzanne <suzanne_on_ca@…
Turmeric, or variously spelt tumeric, is Curcuma domestica Val.
An even better relative for liver problems is Curcuma xanthorrhiza
Roxb. but whether this is exported from here in Indonesia or
Malaysia, where it grows natively, I do not know. The rhizome grows
to be *much* larger than turmeric. In the local herbal literature it
is always mentioned for liver troubles rather than turmeric. Locally
it is known as “temu lawak”. I am going to look into the product line
of some of the traditional “jamu” (herbal remedy) firms to see if
they have it in powdered form. I can buy it in the wet markets for
mere pennies per kilogram.
