01:17We continue to follow the campaign of running Senators in the election of 2025.
01:23For GMA Integrated News, I'm Danoting Cungco reporting for GMA Integrated News.
01:28One of the so-called possible cure for gout from herbal plant Pansit-Pansitan was invented by Filipino researchers.
01:36Niko Wahe is on the scene.
01:37November of last year, Nazareth, a 28-year-old man, suddenly got sick.
01:44It was like a flu and my head and legs were aching.
01:49Before I went to the hospital, he got sick all of a sudden.
01:53I can't explain the pain. It was really painful.
01:57When the rheumatologist looked at him, he realized that he already had gout.
02:01There was a combination of nana and gout crystals that caused me to not be able to move.
02:10I had gouty arthritis because of my lifestyle, because of what I eat, and of course, as a work from home.
02:20Sometimes, I was stuck at home without exercise.
02:24According to the Philippine Rheumatology Association, in 1.6 million Filipinos,
02:28gout is the main cause of their suffering.
02:33Nazareth spent three months in therapy to be able to walk again.
02:38Whenever gout was found, he was found to be a painkiller.
02:43There are also many cases of complications such as CKD or kidney failures
02:48due to too much take of painkillers.
02:50This is also what the researchers of the Institute of Herbal Medicine want to avoid.
02:54That's why they used a herbal plant called ulasimang bato or pansit-pansitan
02:59to make a medicine for gout.
03:01Its pharmacological activity inhibits xanthine oxidase.
03:08This is the same mechanism of action of your adipurinol
03:13so that our uric acid can break down and not accumulate in our body.
03:23Pansit-pansitan is a 100% made-in-Philippines medicine
03:28that was studied for 10 years before it became a medicine for gout.
03:31In the clinical trial of the Institute of Herbal Medicine,
03:3478% of the uric acid level was lowered after 49 days.
03:40What is good about the ulasimang baton?
03:43It also has an analgesic effect and is anti-inflammatory.
03:48For now, they are just waiting to approve the Certificate of Product Registration
03:53of the Food and Drug Administration.
03:55For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nico Juahe.
03:59Stay tuned for 24 hours.
04:01The search for the 4 Filipinos who are missing in Myanmar
04:04after the magnitude 7.7 earthquake
04:07is continuing in the Department of Foreign Affairs.
04:09Stay tuned, I'm Jonathan Anda.
04:18Lex!
04:20Alexis!
04:22They were caught in Myanmar
04:24while they were looking for the house of Alexis Gail and Edsil Jess Adalid.
04:30They were believed to be trapped in a 12-story building
04:35called Sky Villa Condominium
04:37in the city of Mandalay,
04:39which is the closest to the epicenter of the magnitude 7.7 earthquake.
04:43Edsil!
04:48Lex!
04:50In this area, the Filipinos are looking for their loved ones
04:53because they saw the brown jacket of Alexis hanging here.
04:58Under this sofa is the wife's room
05:01which is on the 9th floor of Tower D.
05:04Last night, their family prayed in Bae City in Negros Oriental
05:09for their safety.
05:10We were struck by a candle,
05:14by a whip,
05:16by a mace.
05:18They are inside.
05:20Are they still alive?
05:22I can't accept this.
05:25They are missing.
05:27We want to see our son.
05:29He's so kind.
05:31He's so kind.
05:33But no matter what happens to the people of the government,
05:36are we still dreaming of life?
05:38Are we still alive?
05:40We can't accept this.
05:42Are they still alive?
05:44We wanted to ask everybody who can see this video
05:49to keep praying
05:51that we will be able to receive a miracle
05:54for Alex and Edsil
05:57that they are found
05:59or they will be found alive.
06:01Another Filipino is missing,
06:03Francis Aragon,
06:05who also lives in Sky Villa Condominium
06:06on the 6th floor of Tower D.
06:09This is what Tower D looks like
06:11based on the picture that was sent to Francis' wife.
06:14We don't know where he is,
06:16if he went out of the condo
06:18or if he's still trapped there.
06:20I have no idea.
06:22I just want to find him,
06:25to see him as soon as possible.
06:27Aside from Francis, Edsil, and Alexis,
06:30another Filipino is missing in Myanmar,
06:32according to the DFA.
06:33Actually, if I'm not mistaken,
06:35four Filipinos are accounted for.
06:37All of them are in Myanmar.
06:39The ones in Yangon,
06:41in Naypyidaw,
06:43near Mandalay,
06:45where they are missing.
06:48They are professionals,
06:50usually teachers,
06:52office workers.
06:54According to their family,
06:56three Filipinos went to Myanmar
06:58to teach in an international school there.
07:01The Office of Civil Defense said
07:03that they are planning to send
07:05114 people to Myanmar
07:07on April 1,
07:09which will be two weeks
07:11for humanitarian aid.
07:13The families of the missing people
07:15want to go with them to Myanmar.
07:17For GMA Integrated News,
07:19Jonathan Andal,
07:21for 24 Hours.
07:27How is Ashley Ortega
07:29after being the first evictee
07:31in the PBB Celebrity Collaboration?
07:33Here's Aubrey Carampel.
07:39The love of Ashley Ortega
07:41and A.C. Bonifacio
07:43and her family duo
07:45became emotional.
07:47They are the first evictees
07:49in the PBB Celebrity Collaboration.
07:51Until this afternoon,
07:53Ashley was still emotional
07:55when her brother,
07:57Alessa,
07:59escaped from a hotel arrest
08:01after being evicted last night.
08:03Right now,
08:05everything doesn't sink in.
08:07I was a bit sad,
08:09but at the end of the day,
08:11I have to accept that this is a game.
08:13But whatever's inside the house,
08:15I'm going to cherish everything.
08:17It's just a battle.
08:19She still needs time
08:21to process what happened.
08:23In the mixed emotions
08:25that she felt
08:27for the last three weeks
08:29inside her brother's house.
08:31I've been in the industry for a long time.
08:33I'm a bit vulnerable
08:35in front of a lot of people.
08:37I feel like I'm a change person.
08:39I don't know what to say.
08:41It's life-changing.
08:43It's really life-changing
08:45to the point that
08:47I'm still in shock.
08:49I still can't sink in
08:51everything that's happening.
08:53I'm afraid to know
08:55what's happening in the outside world.
08:57But I'm grateful.
08:59I'm happy Alessa's here,
09:01my sister.
09:03Give them a chance
09:05to communicate with their mother again.

09:09for three years.
09:11Before leaving the house,
09:13Ashley received a letter
09:15from her mother.
09:17Dear Ashley,
09:19I've been forgiving you for a long time.
09:22I've been waiting for you for a long time.
09:24Remember,
09:26I love you so much.
09:28If there's something positive
09:30that her eviction brought,
09:31it's that she'll be able to see
09:33her loved ones again,
09:35including her mother.
09:37Ashley is thankful
09:39to her supporters,
09:41her duo AC,
09:43and housemates.
09:45I appreciate each and every one of you
09:47for loving me.
09:49I still don't know who they are.
09:51But thank you.
09:53And I hope you'll continue
09:55to support PBB
09:57because my housemates there
09:59are all brave
10:01and different.

13:06related to the systematic
13:08and widespread killings
13:10under the administration
13:12of former President
13:13Rodrigo Duterte.
13:15But one of the lawyers
13:16of the victims of extrajudicial
13:17killing has an answer.
13:20So how can you
13:22prove systematic
13:23killing
13:24of 30,000 victims
13:26if you do not have the names
13:28of 30,000
13:30victims?
13:31We have 181 pieces
13:33of evidence
13:34and we don't even have
13:3650
13:38victims.
13:41This is 43 counts
13:43of murder,
13:45not even 50.
13:47So where is the system
13:49there of killing
13:51thousands?
13:53No.
13:54You don't...
13:55No.
13:56Sorry.
13:57Their lawyer is stupid.
13:59I invited VP Sara

14:03the ICC herself
14:04and told her
14:05her argument.
14:06Let's see
