Supports Detoxification and Liver Health: The tea may assist the body’s natural detox processes by supporting liver function and waste elimination,

So, what does that mean for your body?
These compounds help the body fight off:
✔️ Fungal infections (like candida)
✔️ Bacterial overgrowth (like BV)
✔️ Viruses (like HPV or HSV)
✔️ Even some types of abnormal or cancerous cells

Some naphthoquinone-derived molecules, like shikonin and IR18, have been studied for their ability to:
▪️ Slow down the growth of cancer cells
▪️ Trigger cell death (called apoptosis) in harmful cells

🧪 Here’s how it works:
Pau d’arco works best in an acidic environment, which is often where infections and abnormal cells thrive. The compounds in the bark disrupt how these cells reproduce — essenti

ally stopping them from multiplying and helping the body clear them out.
