Tabebuia impetiginosa
Pau d'arco is one of nature's most powerful antibiotics.
It
helps with viral infections such as the common cold, candida albicans,
yeast infections, skin ulcerations and boils, gastro-intestinal upsets,
constipation, dysentery and cancer.
Pau d'arco contains a potent
source of anti-oxidants known to protect the body by ridding it of
free-radicals which cause harm to body cells.
Anti-oxidants are also considered to slow the aging process by slowing down oxidation damage to DNA.
It is also referred to as "Brazilian Tea" - culturally Brazil is very fond of pau d' arco's youth giving properties.
