HEALTH THE BARK OF THE PAU D'ARCO TREE, a longtime folk medicine in
South America, has in recent years brought hope to the millions of
people worldwide who are turning to botanical medicines.
Traditionally used to treat a wide range of ailments, pau d'arco is
today one of the most widely used immunostimulants. Many have found
it to be particularly valuable in managing allergies associated
with the Candida yeast syndrome and in disorders involving a
weakened immune system. As the most complete chronicle of the
science and folklore of pau d'arco, this book will serve as an
invaluable resource for herbalists, scientists, and anyone
interested in medicines from the rain forests of South America.
Kenneth Jones describes the different varieties of pau d'arco and
their applications in South American folk medicine, as well as
giving clear directions for the herb's preparation and dosage in
the form of a tea and as an extract. Reviewing the wide-ranging
scientific literature concerning pau d'arco, he also summarizes the
results of the most up-to-date research on its medical benefits.
Moreover, he points out the ecological dangers facing this and
other valuable rain forest plants, stressing our need to ensure the
sustainability of the tropical rain forests and the life giving
herbs they contain. KENNETH JONES is a medical writer and
consultant specializing in ethnobotany. He is also the author of
Shiitake: The Healing Mushroom and Reishi: Ancient Herb for Modern
Times.
