Hey, guys, Dr. Axe here from DrAxe.com.
Today I'm going to be sharing with you the many benefits of pau d'arco and pau d'arco
tea.
I'll tell you right now, in this video you're going to learn that pau d'arco is the number
one herb for killing candida in the entire world today.
I've worked with a lot of patients with candida, with parasitic infections and viral infections,
and again, there is nothing more powerful.
In this video I'll share with you exactly how to use it and how many times a day.
So again, pau d'arco is an herb that's been used in different native regions around the
world, but it's been shown to be very powerful at killing off candida.
Now, the cause of candida today, and oftentimes parasitic infections, when your immune system
gets weak and you get something called dampness in your body.
This is known in Chinese medicine as a spleen deficiency or excess dampness, so we need
to address those two things.
One, with a weak immunity, and weak immune systems can be caused by emotional stress.
They can be caused by taking antibiotic drugs, poor diet, all of those things can cause immune
deficiency, and the other thing that can cause candida and parasite overgrowth can be things
such as consuming too much dairy or wheat products, consuming too many cold foods, and
really just a poor diet.
All of those things can cause dampness in the body.
But pau d'arco as an herb helps dry up that extra phlegm and mucus.
If you have a white coating on your tongue, or if you ever have a loose stool, or if you
have cravings for sweets, breads and grains on a regular basis, or if you have any type
of regular infection such as a UTI, those are big, big warning signs that you have candida
and chronic infections in your body.
Also, if you've had any sort of other infection, let's say if you know you've had a parasite
or impetigo, or any sort of skin issue or ringworm, you know that that's a sign of a
parasite, or if you've come back from another country with loose stools.
Those are all signs of dampness and candida, fungal or parasitic infections.
Again, the number one way to treat it is by drinking pau d'arco tea or just consuming
pau d'arco and reaping the benefits from that as a supplement.
Pau d'arco contains a compound called lapachol that actually is very powerful.
It has anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anti-parasitic benefits.
Anytime I have a patient that's struggling with issues with candida, I put them on a
diet of going sugar-free, grain-free, consuming a lot of foods that nourish the spleen, such
as fermented vegetables, bitter foods, and then things like bone broth soup.
Even squashes like butternut squash, these things are very nourishing to the spleen.
But then I have them drink two glasses a day, two to three glasses, of pau d'arco tea.
Now this is the brand I've personally recommended to patients.
You can pick it up on Amazon.com or go to Whole Foods, or order it in several places
online, and there are many different brands.
This is just the brand that I've used.
But again, pau d'arco, that's P-A-U, and then space, D-A-R-C-O.
This tea has been used in Chinese medicine for thousands of years to naturally treat
candida, parasites, fungal issues, as well as immune deficiencies in the body.
In some cases, pau d'arco is used in the natural treatment of cancer.
Again, pau d'arco has many health benefits, especially when it comes to treating any sort
of candida, parasite, or immune issues.
Again, for my patients I recommend two to three glasses of this tea a day or taking
two recommended doses in a supplement form.
It can help you fight candida fast.
