Scientists around the world have documented the active properties of pau d'arco and its chemicals including the widely studied chemicals, beta-lapachone and lapachol.* This huge rainforest canopy tree goes by several names including taheebo, lapacho, tahuari, and of course, pau d'arco. Raintree Nutrition's Pau d'arco Concentrated Extract uses new and proprietary extraction methods to concentrate and preserve the active ingredients found in this amazing rainforest tree. The main active chemicals in pau d'arco require heat and alcohol to extract them as they are not very water soluable. Raintree's extract is rich in active and beneficial phytochemicals which occur naturally in this plant because we employ the best methods required based upon this plant's individual phytochemistry—with heat and alcohol. The extraction methods utilized provides the equivalent of approximately 500 mgs of pau d'arco bark per milliliter of extract, resulting in a highly potent concentrated extract.
