More about Alpha
Tamanu Nut oil - Calophyllum inophyllum
Alpha Tamanu oil comes from the island
nation of Madagascar.
The Tamanu tree grows on all tropical islands. The oil is
produced on Samoa, Tahiti, Fiji, and many more locations.
Tamanu oil comes from the nuts that grow on trees, which are
gathered by hand. The nut has a thin layer of flesh, which
tastes like apple. The oil comes from the nut-size kernels,
which are crushed and sundried for three to four weeks to
mature and then they are pressed by hand – no chemicals are
applied.

The surprising natural properties of this oil taken from the Calophyllum
Inophyllum, has attracted the attention of botanists,
researchers and doctors.
In 1938 Doctor Jenson, a reputable Parisian biologist, began
experimenting with Tamanu oil. Its numerous therapeutic
properties, and especially its wound healing virtues impressed
him. It was Professor Lederer who, in 1953, succeeded in
isolating two essential chemical components of the oil of Calophyllum
Inophyllum (Oil of Tamanu). He found a totally new fatty
acid, Calophyllic acid, which may be the component responsible
for regeneration of new skin tissue, and a lactone endowed
with antibiotic properties to be at the origin of its amazing
healing power. Also discovered were anti-inflamatory agents
such as Calophyllolide and Courmarins, as well
as different types of Lipids (fats).
How to apply Alpha TAMANU Nut OIL in
the Treatment of Psoriasis.
In order to get rid of Psoriasis or at
least substantially reduce its effects, simply apply 100% pure
Alpha Tamanu Nut Oil directly onto the affected areas morning
and night using a soft cloth. If your skin begins to dry out
too much, hold off on the Tamanu Oil for a few days and apply
some Tamanu Butter instead (as the addition of pure DME Virgin
Coconut Oil will provide that extra moisturizing quality).
When you're ready, you can just resume the application of pure
Alpha Tamanu Nut Oil.
As with any topical application, please
be sure to test the products on a small area of your skin
first, particularly if you happen to be allergic to nuts or
have a known allergy of any kind.
