00:00According to the International Diabetes Federation of 2021, more than 4 million Filipinos are diagnosed with diabetes.

00:08And the rise in the number of people diagnosed with diabetes continues.

00:11Aside from suppressing insulin and taking different medicines,

00:14studies and research are continuing to fight against diabetes.

00:18That's why it's important to study to fight against the rise in the number of people diagnosed with diabetes in the country.

00:25We are joined by Professor Daisy Mae Bagawisan, Research Assistant Professor from UP Manila Institute of Medicine

00:33to discuss their Ampalaya tablet and how it will help to prevent diabetes from becoming bitter.

00:40Professor Bagawisan, welcome to Dapat Alam Mo. Good evening.

00:43Good evening and thank you for inviting me to your program.

00:47Professor, what is there in Ampalaya that can help patients with diabetes?

00:53We studied this tablet and we found that it can lower our fasting blood sugar.

01:02Where are these tablets made from? Fruits? Leaves? Roots? What are they used for?

01:08We studied the leaves.

01:10So we used the leaves.

01:12Not the fruits?

01:14No, not the leaves.

01:15Why the leaves?

01:16Because in our study, we found that it has the highest number of bioactive constituents of memordicine

01:23that can lower our blood sugar.

01:25Memordicine is not found in fruits?

01:27Memordicine.

01:29It's not found in fruits?

01:30Based on our study, it is found in fruits, but the concentration is lower.

01:36Compared to the leaves.

01:37In your study and development of Ampalaya tablet, how was it proven to be effective against diabetes?

01:45Our study went through a clinical trial.

01:48There are many phases.

01:50Phase 1, 2, and 3.

01:52The three phases of the study showed that Ampalaya tablet can lower our blood sugar.

02:02So it's effective.

02:03So it's effective?

02:04Yes.

02:05In our time, Susan and I were just adults.

02:07I was forced to eat Ampalaya.

02:09It's delicious in mung bean.

02:11I was forced to eat the fruit.

02:13It's not bitter.

02:17Doc, is it high enough to say that Ampalaya tablet can be used against diabetes or maintenance?

02:23Yes.

02:24Because it went through a clinical trial, it can be registered in the Philippine FDA.

02:31That's great.

02:33Ampalaya has been around the world for a long time.

02:35Why did you come up with this?

02:37Actually, our ancestors have been using it for a long time.

02:41It has folkloric evidence.

02:43Our research team at the Institute of Herbal Medicine studied it based on its folkloric use.

02:52So we gave evidence-based or scientific basis on their folkloric use.

02:59Professor, when can we try this for our diabetes patients?

03:03Can we buy this in the market?

03:05Currently, we have companies that are interested in manufacturing our Ampalaya tablet.

03:12Okay.

03:13How about the Ampalaya tablets that are in the market now?

03:16One of them has been around for 20 years.

03:19I can't remember its name, but it's effective.

03:22Yes.

03:23Our Ampalaya tablet is considered an herbal medicine because it went through a clinical trial.

03:29What we can see in the market now are herbal supplements.

03:34That's right.

03:35With no therapeutic claims.

03:36Yes.

03:37We can say that it has therapeutic claims.

03:39Yes.

03:40Because it went through a clinical trial.

03:42That's great.

03:43Some of our viewers might think that because they have Ampalaya in their house,

03:48they can just make it.

03:50They can just add salt to it.

03:52Is that possible?

03:53Actually, that's possible.

03:54But they might not be able to get the exact concentration

03:58that can lower their sugar levels.

04:03Susan, this is a special request.

04:05Usually, when we have a feast here, we have to taste it first, right?

04:08Yes.

04:09Susan, this is for you.

04:10Oh, it's not bitter.

04:11That's great.

04:12It's not bitter.

04:13Oh, it's a leaf.

04:14Later, later.

04:16It's not bitter.

04:17Thank you so much, Professor Daisy V. Bagawiza from UP Manila Institute of Medicine.

04:25As long as the news is important and timely,

04:27and the stories are funny and true,

04:30Thank you so much, UP!
