Description

Pau d’Arco, La Pacho (Tabebuia impetiginosa) has a beneficial effect on the immune system and strengthens the whole body. It cares for the proper functioning of the digestive tract and liver, supports cleansing and improves blood quality.

La pacho comes from the Amazon. This name applies to both the tree and its internal bark, which has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. La pacho has many local names, and while in South America we will hear mostly about ipe-roxo or taheboo. Indigenous Indians inhabiting the Amazon jungle called Pau d’Arco a divine tree and gave them great respect because its internal bark was one of the most important medical supplies for them. They used it in the case of a huge number of ailments, such as fever, malaria, cold and cough, anemia, bacterial and viral infections, and fungal infections. The bark preparations also suppressed any pains and applied to wounds after the bites of poisonous snakes.

Over the years Pau d’Arco has become popular in natural medicine throughout South and Central America, and today it is interested in many researchers in modern medicine. In the PubMedu database alone, about 200 experiments are recorded, in which the activity of La Pacho and active substances isolated on it for tumors, bacteria, viruses and fungi, immune cells and other blood elements, internal organs, enzymes and physiological reactions were tested.

Heals Ulcers – Paul d’arcos extract significantly accelerated the healing of the acetic acid induced gastric ulcers in rats by increasing mucus content and cell proliferation, suggesting it can treat ulcers in humans as well.

Fights cancer – Research shows that beta-Lapachone, a major compound in pau d’ardco tea, is a potential compound to be added to cancer chemotherapy.

Provides Antiviral & Antifungal Properties – The beta-lapochone present in pau d’arco actually inhibits the enzymes in virus cells, which directly affects the synthesis of DNA and RNA.
