“Hampo is a snack made by soil originated from Central Java and East Java, Indonesia. Hampo is usually consumed as a light meal or snack, and is especially loved by the women who are pregnant. There is also evidence that supports the usefulness of the flora found in soil, ingredients of ampo. Some have even suggested that it is useful, if not vital, in the establishment of healthy bacteria within the digestive tract, addressing the problems presented by Crohn’s disease and leaky gut syndrome. Highly absorbent families of clays have been demonstrated to cause the lining of the vertebrate gut to change both on a cellular and acellular level, potentially protecting the gut from chemical insults as well as alleviating ailments such as esophagitis, gastritis, and colitis.”
