Pau D’Arco Bark

Considered an early “cure-all” by the Inca, as well as other native South American people, Pau d’arco was used on everything from wounds and fever to cancer and snakebit’s. Modern research has shown it to possibly be therapeutically useful for cancer and leukemia, and more directly effective on tumors. Lapacho (its Spanish name) also has strong antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties.
