Borututu Bark
Deep in the jungles of Africa, the bark of the borututu tree (Cochlospermum angolensis) holds many treasures. A tea made from this interesting substance has traditionally been used to manage ailments related to liver function, indigestion, and fatigue. Indeed, borututu bark tea as a broad spectrum tonic is an old world tradition. A natural and powerful broad spectrum cleansing agent, traditional African medicine favors borututu for the management of concerns of the liver and gallbladder.
Rich in active ingredients such as quinones, catechins, phenols, and bio-flavonoids, borututu has a wealth of substances shown to benefit the liver and gallbladder. For concerns related to the digestive system and gallbladder, hands down, borututu bark is one of nature's most powerful tonics.
Like many phytonutrients, borututu bark is a venerable source for the extremely health promoting power of antioxidants. Antioxidants sniff out and fight free radicals, helping to lessen oxidative stress and damage. By sniping out those varmints, antioxidants aid the body in detoxification. Antioxidant activity can help the body defend itself against the negative outside influences of pollution, stress, and toxic chemicals in our water, air, and environment.
Borututu is thought to positively influence blood fluidity, which may support factors that help to lower cholesterol and normalize arterial tension. Borututu has also been described as promoting healthy hydration. A specially processed synergistic blend of borututu and aloe vera has a place in old medical books as a cooling and detoxifying cleanser for the blood, bowels, and liver. It's also a nutritional powerhouse, which may benefit the gastrointestinal tract and it has been used in cases involving ulcers.
Most of the favorable dialogue concerning borututu is limited to historical and cultural use, however some research has examined the potential of borututu bark. Studies into potential activity against harmful organisms has been launched. Certainly these observations indicate borututu bark to be a potential soldier in the army of phytonutrients used to battle against illness and health concerns. [1, 2, 3]
