Hasil Responden Pengetahuan Masyarakat Terhadap Cara Pengolahan Temulawak (Curcuma Xanthorrhiza) dan Kencur (Kaemferia galanga) Sebagai Peningkatan Imunitas Selama COVID-19 dengan Menggunakan Kedekatan Konsep Program Leximancer

Abstract

Covid-19 is one of the viruses that is sweeping across the world. Many COVID-19 patients are infected due
to low immunity. Many factors affect it. One form that can be done to treat COVID-19 is to increase
immunity. Enhance immunity by consuming medicine derived from natural ingredients or OMAI (Modern
Indonesian Original Medicine). One form of OMAI is temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza) and kencur
(Kaemferia galanga). Both of these materials can be used if the processing method is good and right. Until
now the OMAI processing method that is good and right has not been fully conveyed to the community. The
lack of information obtained by the community is what underlies this research.Therefore, a research related
to the community's understanding on how to process these two OMAIs. Leximancer 4.51 data results show
that the public does not yet understand the proper and correct processing methods for instant powder
preparations or other preparations, while for ready-to-drink preparations (solutions) the majority of people
understand well and correctly how to process them. This is also caused because there are still many people
who have not found preparations other than solutions. From these results it can be concluded that there is a
need for an approach to the community regarding the processing of other dosage forms such as instant
powder, lozenges, and capsules.
