History:
Pau D'Arco is an evergreen of the Amazon rain forest, but it is also deciduous when it grows in higher and colder locations. It is a tropical tree, native to South and Central America, and although it grows to a height of one hundred feet, it may start out as a vine. The tree grows in well-drained, fertile soil in sunny, warm, tropical climates. The wood and inner bark are used for herbal therapeuticl purposes, and the lumber (known as lapacho) is highly valued in cabinetmaking. Pau D'Arco may flower in a number of colors, but the roxa (red, magenta, crimson and violet) varieties are used the most in herbal therapy; and the best quality is said to come from Argentina (where it has been used extensively by the Callaway tribe). Pau D'Arco has a long folk history of use, and many South American Indian societies have used it for centuries for wounds, energy and endurance support. They also introduced Pau D'Arco to the early Portuguese settlers of Brazil for worms. Its ancient and current use in South America is for healthy blood and skin. Pau D'Arco has a rich iron content and also includes beta-carotene, beta-sitosterol, flavonoids (quercetin), alkaloids (tecomine, hydroxybenzoic acid, and steroidal saponins), barium, iodine, lapachol (a naphthoquinone), beta-lapachone and xyloidine (quinoids), xyloidone (naphthoquinone) and tabebuin (anthroquinone).
