Pure Tamanu Oil And Its Many Benefits

By Muriel Noel


Found in Southeast Asia, pure tamanu oil is a topical ointment that is associated with various benefits. In many parts of the world it is a highly valuable commodity. This is due to the fact that the tree after which it is named blooms annually for a very short duration. This makes the production of the oil an expensive and time-consuming activity.

Tamanu oil is used for variety of reasons around the world. In Polynesia and Fiji, is often used to heal various skin disorders. This is due to its ability to enhance the production of new skin cells.

For thousands of years, those who live in the Pacific Islands have utilized the substance. Natives of the aforementioned areas state that it can be used to cure acute or chronic pain and heal skin cuts. Its proponents also state that it can eliminate eczema and dry skin, as well as alleviate the pain from sunburns, including those of a serious nature.

Some islanders rub the oil onto their necks to alleviate sore throat pain. Many people have also reported that the oil is an effective treatment for arthritis, sciatic pain, neuralgia and gout. However, further studies are needed concerning its use for these conditions.

Certain manufacturers use the oil as an ingredient in their cosmetic lines. It is responsible for the silky feel and pleasant smell of certain cosmetic products. Unlike conventional makeup brands, those that contain pure tamanu oil do not cake or clump. Additionally, after absorption, cosmetics that contain such oil leave the user's skin feeling smoother and softer.

Other uses of the oil include the treatment of diaper rash and headache relief. In certain parts of the world it is also used as an insect repellent. Currently, its antibacterial properties are being researched, as well.

As studies continue, it is likely that more uses for pure tamanu oil will be discovered. However, it is not wise to replace traditional medications or treatments with holistic supplements. In addition, one should discuss the use of any new dietary supplement or alternative treatment with his or her health care practitioner.
