True Tamanu ® Oil
The South Pacific Republic of Vanuatu is the home of a botanical treasure
known as the tamanu tree. Traditionally, natives hand-gathered the fruit of only the coastal tamanu trees, for those fruits yielded
the higher quality of oil. Following traditional practice, to make True Tamanu®, the nuts inside the coastal fruits are
hand-cracked, and the nut kernels are sun-dried until golden brown. The nut kernels are cold pressed, without heat or chemicals of any kind.
Nature's Miracle Skin Oil
As early as 1918, French researchers investigated the unique topical benefits of
tamanu oil. Traditionally, the oil has been used by Pacific Islanders on cuts,
sores, burns, blemishes, rashes, bites, and stings. The oil of tamanu contains
three basic classes of lipids: neutral lipids, glycolipids, and phospholipids.
The oil also contains a unique fatty acid called calophyllic acid, and a novel
immune supportive and anti-inflammatory agent called calophylloide which
promotes the formation of new, healthy skin. Tamanu is not only topically immune
supportative, it is anti-inflammatory on the skin as well. Its lush scent and
rapid penetration leave your skin radiant, glowing, soft and oil-free.
Promoting Sustainability
The collection of True Tamanu ® fruits helps to
keep Pacific Island coastal areas pristine. The preparation of True Tamanu ® provides
income for native people and helps them to maintain an agricultural society. True Tamanu ®
is a beneficial oil of unsurpassed quality, and contributes directly to environmental and
cultural sustainability.
