I'm an antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antifungal, anticandida, anticancerous and antitumor agent.
Medical doctors in South America have used me to treat terminally ill cancer patients at the Santo Andre hospital Since 1960. I've been known to cure leukemia and reduce pain in cancer patients, increase blood cell count, enabling the body to fight off many illnesses.
I've been used to treat ulcers, diabetes, rheumatism, ring worm, bronchitis and other respiratory problems, gonorrhea, hemorrhages, cystitis, colitis, gastritis, Parkinson's, arteriosclerosis, Hodgkin's, lupus, polyps, prostatis, leucorrhea, candida, endometriosis, fibroids, cysts, growths and tumors, anemia and inflammation of the urinary tract, just to mention a few.
I am known to eliminate toxins in the body and purify the blood. In an original weight loss research study performed in Chicago in 1992, women's chronic yeast infections cleared up promptly when Pau d'arco was added to the formula. I also have anti-inflammatory characteristics, for the treatment of arthritis and other inflammatory diseases.
My anticancerous properties were first attributed to a phytochemical found in the bark and wood called lapachol. In a 1968 study, lapachol demonstrated highly significant activity against cancerous tumors in rats. Another research group developed a lapachol analog in 1975 which was effective in increasing the life span by over 80% in mice inoculated with leukemic cells. In a small study in 1980 with nine patients with various cancers (liver, kidney, breast, prostate and cervix), pure lapachol demonstrated an ability to shrink tumors and achieved complete remissions in three of the patients.
