Geranium Essential Oil, organic, 5 ml.

It has an action on the adrenal cortex and is therefore a little stimulating. This effect promotes improved circulation. It is often used in combination with other oils to reduce cellulite or promote hair growth. It is also used topically for athlete"s foot and other fungal infections, such as candida. Internally, it acts on the liver and pancreas. It blends very well with many other oils, including all the members of the ginger and citrus families.

Pau d'Arco Herbal Extract. 2 oz.

Pau d'Arco Extract, 2 oz.
Tabebuia impetiginosa

Pau d'arco is one of the most well known South American herbs. It has a reputation for having anti-cancer, antimicrobial, and antifungal properties. It is also used to purify the blood and regulate blood sugar. Like many herbs with ethnobotanical traditions strongly suggestive of antitumoral properties, pau d'arco seems to benefit some patients more than others. It is widely believed to work better with patients with elevated levels of Candida albicans.

The earliest modern studies of pau d'arco were published by Dr. Theodore Meyer who successfully used it to cure very advanced cancers, especially leukemia. Some of his findings were questioned by those who attempted to attribute all results to a single compound. As with most herbs, the whole herb often protects against toxicity of the strongest chemical constituent, in this case, lapachol. In clinical trials, low doses stimulate immunity whereas higher doses reduce inflammation often associated with stimulation. As might be expected of an herb with antifungal properties, it helps to reduce allergic reactions.

Contains: extract of Tabebuia_impetiginosa bark in distilled water, organic grain alcohol, and pure vegetable glycerin.

Usnea Extract, 2 oz.
Usnea longissima

Usnea, sometimes called Old Man"s Beard, is a lichen that grows on trees in virtually every part of the world. It has significant immune enhancing properties and is considered by many as a substitute for antibiotics, but it is regarded as both antibacterial and antiviral. This statement always needs qualifying because natural remedies are very seldom "anti" anything since they work by increasing immunity rather than destroying pathogens directly. They do this by providing nutrients for white blood cells. Traditionally, usnea is considered to be immune enhancing and antifungal. It is safe and can be combined with other immune herbs such as echinacea. It is used mainly for sinus and respiratory relief as well as gynecological protection.

Contains: Extract of Usnea longissima Thallus in Organic Alcohol, Distilled Water, and Vegetable Glycerin.
