Boldo Tree
Description:Boldo is a small tree or shrub that is native to South America and is known for its small, dark green leaves and small, blue-purple flowers. The leaves of the boldo plant have a distinctive, strong aroma and are used in both cooking and traditional medicine. Medicinally, boldo is used to treat digestive disorders, such as indigestion and constipation, and to stimulate the appetite. It is also used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, urinary tract infections and is used as a natural remedy for liver and gallbladder problems. Boldo should be used with caution as the leaves contain ascaridole, which can be toxic to the liver. There are ascaridole-free preparations available and only those should be used medicinally.
