WHAT IS THE BEST BRAND OF TAMANU OIL AND WHY? 

Volcanic Earth Tamanu Oil is the best brand of Tamanu Oil on the market today because of the consistently high quality of the product. It is certified organic, 100% pure Tamanu Oil that is undiluted, has no additives whatsoever and is never subjected to any chemical filtering or other processes.  

Stay away from black colored or lightly-colored or yellowish-coloured oil. None of these are the real deal and this is why they are so cheap. There is a lot of rubbish oil coming out of Vietnam especially. 

Black Tamanu Oil occurs where the Tamanu Nuts have been thrown into the fire to try and speed up the curing process. However, all this does is burn the nut and the resulting oil which seriously diminishes its natural, skin-healing and anti-aging properties 

WHAT IS TAMANU OIL GOOD FOR? 

Tamanu Oil benefits extend to a wide range of natural treatments for acne and acne scars, eczema, psoriasis, toenail fungus, stretch marks, age spots, skin rashes, general scarring, dermatitis through to anti-aging and as an ingredient in making good skin products for oily skin. 

In fact, one of the major benefits of Tamanu Oil is that it can be used as a stand-alone product, whether it be used solely as a product for oily acne skin or for the prevention or reduction of scarring or just for beautiful, blemish-free skin. 

Not only can you use Tamanu Oil for skin rejuvenation but you can even use Tamanu Oil for hair and scalp rejuvenation as well. It also seems great for healthy, nail growth. 

SIDE EFFECTS:  

There are no known Tamanu Oil side effects when used as on the skin except for a small group who can have an allergic reaction. This is why we recommend that you test it on a small area of the skin first.

WHAT IS TAMANU OIL MADE FROM? 

Tamanu oil comes from the nut kernels of the Tamanu Nut Tree. Its scientific name is either Calophyllum inophyllum Seed Oil or Calophyllum Tacamahaca Seed Oil, depending on the variety of Tamanu Tree.  

Process of Tamanu Oil 

The Tamanu Oil is then extracted by cold-pressing and filtration. It takes a great many nuts to produce even a small quantity of oil - in fact, four trees will generally yield approximately 20 Liters of "pure" Tamanu Oil, depending on the size and yield of the trees! 

This low-yield ratio is the primary reason for the relatively high cost of Tamanu Oil. However, don't be fooled by companies pretending to sell pure Tamanu Oil. 

Many of these companies may well use pure Tamanu Oil but then dilute it with other ingredients such as Olive Oil!  

SHELF LIFE 

Pure 100% organic Tamanu Oil has a shelf life of at least 2 years and as high as 5 years. It prefers to be stored at room temperature or even a bit hotter but avoids very high temperatures as this may reduce the shelf life of the oil. 

100% Tamanu Oil should have a dark green color which may vary slightly depending on the variety. However, be wary of yellowish-colored oil as this usually means it has been tampered with either through mixing with other oils or due to some type of refining process. 

Tamanu Oil has a tendency tends to separate if temperatures get too cold. This is the fatty acid content Should this occur we suggest you give it a good shake and then place it in the sun or in some hot, simmering water. You could also try putting it in the microwave but just remember that it is an oil! 

As mentioned above, Tamanu Oil DOES NOT need to be diluted with Olive Oil or any other oil. Don't be fooled by companies who sell you Tamanu Oil (at Tamanu Oil prices) but where it's really 50% Tamanu Oil and 50% Olive Oil! 

Pure or light olive oil is likely to be chemically processed whereas Tamanu Oil is "naturally derived", so why take chance contaminating it with some inferior oil? 

TAMANU OIL HEALTH BENEFITS 

In addition to its use as a significant skin healing agent, Tamanu Oil health benefits extend to the relief of arthritic or rheumatic pain. It has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antifungal and antioxidant properties, as well as containing anti-cancer agents. 

Tamanu Oil may be used to help: - 

• get rid of acne fast 
• acne scarring 
• aging 
• burns & blisters

• eczema 
• athletes foot 
• the relief of neuralgia sciatica & rheumatism 
• foot odor and body odor

Why Tamanu Oil Works?

One of the many possible reasons for such incredible results is the fact that the Tamanu oil can reach all three layers of the skin: epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. 

Along with the above-mentioned benefits, Tamanu Oil has been used as a natural antibiotic. 

In 1953, Professor Ledener isolated something called lactone in the oil of Tamanu. This is the source of this natural antibiotic property. Another component in the oil of Tamanu is Calophyllic Acid. 

This acid is said to be the source of the oil's ability to heal scars. Some people have noticed significant healing of wounds in as little as five or six applications. 

The Calophyllic Acid helps to regenerate skin. Pain in the hips, buttocks, lower back, back of the thighs, and adjacent parts is referred to as sciatica. 

This pain or discomfort is said to be helped by the oil of Tamanu. Neuritis and rheumatism are also said to be aided by this oil. 

Since this Vanuatu remedy has been used for centuries by the Melanesians for helping heal sunburns and to help heal wounds, you will probably find the oil very helpful in the healing process of post-surgical wounds. 

After surgeries such as a neuter, biopsy or any other instance where stitches are present, the use of Tamanu Oil can help heal the wound. 

Tamanu Oil For Scars 

In an assessment of treatment of aged scars, Tamanu oil was shown to improve the appearance of scars from both qualitative(Mean Visual score) and quantitative(reduction in scar length and width) perspectives [See Dweck and Meadows, Personal Care, January 2003] 

Anti-inflammatory 

This activity is due partly to the 4 phenylcoumarin calophyllolide and to a group of xanthones in the oil - these include dehydrocycloguanandin, calophyllin-B, jacareubin, mesuazanthone-A, esuazanthone-B and euxanthone. 

All the xanthones in Tamanu Oil show anti-inflammatory activity, which explains reductions of rashes, sores, swelling and abrasions with topical application of the oil. 

Anti-bacterial and anti-fungal  

Tamanu oil demonstrates significant antimicrobial activity, as demonstrated in an antibacterial and antifungal test. This oil contains several powerful bactericide/fungicide agents, which demonstrate efficacy against various human and animal pathogens. 

These antimicrobial phytochemical agents include; friedelin, canophyllol, canophyllic acid and inophynone.
 

SPF 30 Sunscreen 

• Waterproof Sun Protection Factor 30 (protects against UVa and UVb)
• Highly effective barrier action 
• Protects against sunburn and premature skin aging 
• Shields tattoos from UV damage 
• Assists in healing and soothing of sun-damaged skin 

Antioxidant - Anti-Aging 

Xanthones and coumarins in Tamanu oil demonstrate antioxidant properties, specifically inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Cell membranes are made of lipids. 

The antioxidant activity of Tamanu oil helps to protect skin cells from damage by reactive oxygen species(ROS) and other oxidative antagonists. 

Tamanu Oil Aroma Pure Tamanu Oil has a strong, almost medicinal type smell that for some people are a little too strong. 

However, the good news is that it can be used as a powerful skin care ingredient as evident in Volcanic Earth's Facial Care Range above.

Another example is a product called Tamanu Butter. It can be used for a wide range of skin conditions instead of using straight Tamanu Oil. This product also lacks the strong aroma that some people find a bit much. Tamanu Butter Contains 

• 60% pure organic, Tamanu Oil, pure Virgin Coconut Oil and Cocoa Butter 
• Highly effective as with pure Tamanu Oil Advanced formula 
• Enhances skin moisturization 
• Non-irritating fragrance

Tamanu Oil And Animals 

Although originally used for the benefit of humans, Tamanu Oil also works for the benefit of horses, dogs, and cats. It is especially beneficial when an itch arises behind the ears, on areas of the face, the neck, the chest, the stomach, the feet or paws, and around the base of the tail. 

These are all areas where allergies tend to create the most disturbance. The aroma of the oil will not bother them. 

However, as Tamanu Oil is not designed to be taken orally, it is important to use it sparingly on dogs, cats and any other animals that like to lick themselves clean. 

Of course, since each pet is different, this degree of success may vary. At first, it may be necessary to apply the oil a few times a day and then reduce the number of applications as the problem begins to heal. Since the oil is so effective, a little goes a long way. Just apply it directly onto the affected area - once applied, massage in. 

With all of its wonderful and complimentary benefits and the oil's ancient history, it's easy to understand why this South Pacific powerhouse is the preferred choice of Melanesians all throughout Vanuatu.

IMPORTANT: For anyone with a "Nut Allergy", test on a small area first.
