Excerpts from Nutritional Herbology

The Incas and native tribes of South America use pau d’arco bark externally as a poultice or decoction for treating skin diseases including eczema, psoriasis, fungal infections, hemorrhoids and skin cancers.

A tea made from the bark is used as a blood purifier, to treat ulcers and rheumatism and is said to cure leukemia. It is also diuretic and antipyretic.

The recent popularity of pau d’arco in western herbology is attributed to its antifungal activity in treating systemic yeast infections like candida albicans.

Yeast infections often accompany or follow antibiotic therapy and can be especially resistant to conventional treatment. The antifungal action of pau d’arco is used to combat these infections by drinking the tea thrice daily.

Contains astringent compounds that shrink inflamed tissues and are anti-fungal. It also contains bitter compounds that have anti-tumor activity especially in certain blood and skin cancers. Pau d’arco is an excellent herbal source of calcium. It has been used to treat fungal infections, inflammatory skin conditions, leukemia, dysentery, jaundice, ulcers, and rheumatism.

    Pau d' Arco (Taheebo) comes from the inner bark of the Red Lapacho tree in the Andes of South America. It has been used for centuries. Theodoro Meyer of the National University of Tucuman, Argentina was the first modern scientist to study Taheebo’s chemical composition. He found it contained XYLOIDIN – an antibiotic with viricidal properties. Also contains LASPACHOL – an element noted for its antitumor activity.

    Pau D'Arco bark
    by Gayle on May 19, 2008  [ reply ]

    I am having digestive problems and a friend suggested drinking this tea. She has had wonderful results. My problem: I am on Coumadin for heart valve replacement surgery 4 years ago. I also have pulmonary hypertension and have been told by doctors not to take herbs. I have tried all the drugs given to me by my doctors with little results. Will these tea interupt my blood thinner? I would like to try it, but a little concerned.
    Thank you for your help!

    hypercalcemia
    by lisa on Jul 21, 2008  [ reply ]

    I have recently been diagnosed with hypercalcemia due to probable parathyroid tumor. Would the taheebo increase the calcium, thus making me more symptomatic? I have friends who have had remarkable cancer recoveries they attribute to this bark and I am wondering if this is a potential therapy to shrink my non-cancer tumors without adverse side-effects and eliminate the need for surgery. Thank-you!

    Do not take with blood thinners
    by Joel on Jun 30, 2009  [ reply ]

    Pau D'Arco can thin blood, so taking it while taking other blood thinning medications is not a good idea
