Benefits Of Garbage Enzyme
Some of my friends have been asking me about our latest garbage enzyme experiment. As Doc put it, eat full nothing better to do, play with rubbish XP (I'm not playing with rubbish!). After doing much reading about garbage enzyme, hubby and I felt that it's a really doable thing, so let's give it a go. I've extracted some information from the some of the websites I've read, hopefully it'll give you guys a clearer picture of what garbage enzyme is, the process, and its benefits to Mother Earth.

What is garbage enzyme?
Garbage enzyme is a complex solution produced by fermentation of fresh kitchen waste (fruits and vegetables), sugar (brown sugar, jaggery or molasses sugar) and water. It is dark brown and has a strong sweet sour fermented scent. Garbage enzyme is a multi-purpose liquid and its applications covers household, agriculture, animal husbandry etc.

Who developed garbage enzyme?
Garbage enzyme is developed by Dr Rosukon Poompanvong from Thailand. She has been actively involved in enzyme research for more than 30 years and encourages people to make garbage enzyme at home to ease global warming.

How does garbage enzyme help Mother Earth?
From day one you start making garbage enzyme, its catalysis process will release ozone gas (O3). O3 can reduce carbon dioxide (C02) in the atmosphere and heavy metal that traps heat in the cloud. Hence heat can be released from the Earth, reducing greenhouse and global warming effects. Enzyme convert ammonia to nitrate (NO3), a natural hormone and nutrient for plants. Meanwhile it converts carbon dioxide to carbonate (C03) which is beneficial to sea plants and marine life.

How do you use garbage enzyme?
Garbage enzyme has multiple usages such as natural household cleaner, air purifier, deodoriser, insecticide; detergent; body care; car care: organic fertiliser, etc (wah so many usages!). It also acts as a natural pesticide against insects and bugs. The enzyme reportedly, can also release residues accumulated in the pipe of basins or toilet bowls.

Now that I've shared with you some of the benefits and usages of garbage enzyme, perhaps you can also try it and share your thoughts on the idea. Or if you've any experience on using the enzyme, do share with me as well. It's really a small part that every household can play, and it cost practically nothing (ok, maybe you have to buy brown sugar/molasses lah). And since it's beneficial not only to us but the Mother Nature as well, why not :)
