Jakarta - A Japanese flavoring company, Ajinomoto Co developed a cancer detection technology called Amino Index Risk Screening or AIRS. From the official release data of Ajinomoto Co., Inc.-Japan, AIRS uses amino acid technology. Based on Ajinomoto's long history of amino acids, it is recognized that the balance of amino acids in the blood changes to show a person's health.

This then leads to the development of practical cancer screening technology, which can improve detection when combined with other examination tests. The use of this technology to launch Ajinomoto will make it easier for doctors and patients to prevent and be able to optimize cancer. Later, the doctor will take the patient's blood as much as 5 ml per examination. The blood received then uses amino acid technology.

AIRS technology can support stomach cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer in men. While for women, this tool will cut off stomach cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and uterine or ovarian cancer.

Regular health checks have become a trend in society, including in Japan. Ajinomoto makes the age of Japanese society longer. In Japan, mass checks are given to every student in the school, employees in the office, and every person in the universal health care system and local government. In other countries, health checks are often only done by those who are concerned with their health, while in Japan, this is a rule.

It can be seen from the GDP of Japan. Every year, Japan only spends 10% of the country's GDP compared to the United States which spends 17%. The lower the country's GDP related to health, the healthier the society of a country is.

According to the Chairman of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI), Dr. Daeng M Faqih, SH, MH, health checks must indeed be carried out in the midst of the community, especially Indonesia. Through routine health checks, people will be able to challenge and prevent diseases, such as cancer.

"We must encourage the public to be literate about health checks. Don't get sick, then you will go to the doctor. As good as success is a challenge rather than overcoming, "he concluded.
