Pau d'acrco fights infections of all kinds

The Mayans and Incas of South America regarded pau d'acrco as an important healing herb, but the scientific study is still very preliminary. There is a great deal of practical evidence, however, that pau d'arco can be used with success to treat colds, flu, sore throat, and yeast infections. Laboratory evidence suggests that the herb contains compounds that protect against tropical diseases, specifically malaria, schistosomiasis, and tropical fevers. The herb is added to ointments to treat psoriasis, and taken orally to relieve ulcers. Mountain Rose Herbs (2008-16-16)

Side Effects:
Many herbs imported from the the rain forests of South America are heavily contaminated with pesticides, so insist on organically grown and ethically harvested woods-grown pau d'arco.
How to Use: Pau D' Arco
Preparation Methods :Can be mixed with other herbs to form a pleasant tasting tea, capsules of dried bark, or liquid extract. Pau d'arco tincture should be taken in water with a little lemon juice so tannins can be absorbed
