Chaparral is nicknamed “Cresote bush” which gets its name from the oil which is used to treat wood. The word ‘Chaparral’ comes from the Spanish language, meaning a low growing shrub. In Mexico, Chaparral has been used for centuries as an anti-cancer remedy. North American Indian tribes, the Kawaiisu, the Paiute & the Sho-shone, used the “Cresote bush” for ailments relating to sepsis (bacteria) & elimination. The plant is known to act against free radicals & thus may be effective in preventing degenerative disease associated with aging. This plant is of particular interest to us in cleansing the lymph system, an important part of rejuvenation. It is anti-inflammatory & non-toxic. It is so powerful, however, that parasites will leave the system, while dangerous microbes will either leave or succumb to it.
