Pau D'Arco (tabebuia impertiginosa) Dried & Cuts bark

• Botanical name: tabebuia impertiginosa
• Part of the plant: Inner Bark
• Origin: Brazil

• Form: Inner bark, dried and cut

  Pau d'Arco also called Lapacho, can treat skin infections thanks to its antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antiseptic, antiparasitic and anti-inflammatory actions. Pau d'Arco can help relieve symptoms of skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis and acne problems.

  Traditionally, in South America, pau d'arco is prepared in the form of a decoction because an infusion is not sufficient to extract the active ingredients, by boiling, for 8 to 10 minutes, from 15 g to 20 g of inner bark dried in 500 ml of water. Filter and apply it with a cotton pad soaked in the infected area.

  IMPORTANT: Always do an allergy or intolerance test on a small part of the skin before regular use.
