Where can I get information on the unusual herbs in Rainforest Remedies?
The rainforest of the Yucatan peninsula is a very specific herbal capsule. Many of the herbs in Rainforest Remedies were unknown to most of the world until quite recently. Most of the herbs may be found in two books authored or co-authored by Dr. Arvigo: “Rainforest Remedies, 100 Healing Plants of Belize” and “Sastun”. Our reference sheet on the herbs in Rainforest Remedies includes botanical and common names as well as traditional uses. Endangered herbs and any possibly toxic herbs, especially those containing alkaloid compounds, are never used in Rainforest Remedies. All the herbs in Rainforest Remedies exhibit recognized active healing properties. These plants successful survival in the extremely competitive rainforest for many centuries is a result of their development of specialized micronutrients. These micronutrients, along with a full spectrum of trace elements drawn from virgin soil make these wild herbs valuable, concentrated foods.
