Ikan Haruan or snakehead fish, has long been used by Malaysians as a remedy to enhance wound healing. It is also a common pratice in much of South Asia.Studies done in 1994 shows that the unique fatty acid and amino acid composition of this fish play an important role in wound healing.
Both fatty acid and amino acid are particularly useful for:
i) enhancing external and internal wound healing three times faster following injury, surgery and childbirth.
ii) improving conditions of mild or severe bedsores.
iii) speeding the healing of internal injuries such as bone fractures and muscle tears.
iv) enhancing the healing of mild burns on skin tissues and reducing scarring.
