Horopito is a New Zealand Native plant, which has stronger anti-fungal properties than oregano oil!
It was known as the 'Maori Painkiller', and a 1982 University of Canterbury study showed that horopito extract had strong anti-fungal properties and was more effective against the yeast Candida albicans than the pharmaceutical product it was compared with.
This, combined with Tea Tree Oil is what gives this salve it's strength. Very effective against athletes foot, ringworm, and candida rash. For best results, apply twice per day on affected area.
Ingredients: Wild harvested Horopito infused Olive Oil, Organic Unrefined Coconut Oil, Organic Shea Butter, Organic Beeswax, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Oil
