The purpose of this guide is to introduce you to a natural, heanthy alternative to traditional head lice and nits control.

If you ever had a problem with lice you would probably runto your drugstore and buy a Lice Treatment Kit.

But if you have read the label you would have seen that it is full of chemicals. Is this safe????

Quassia is a tropical plant indigineous to Brazil, Argentina, Suriname, Colombia, Venezuela, and Guyana. It is known by different names being Quassia amarga and Amargo the most used.

Quassia wood is on the FDA GRASS (generally regarded as safe) list. The wood and its main bitter compound, quassin, are also approved as food additives--and are employed in beverages and baked goods for their bitter taste, so maybe you have alaready eaten this plant in many of the foods and beverages that it is currently being used.

Clinical studies performed on Quassia verified its traditional use and natural pediculicide, documenting it as an effective treatment for head lice infestation in humans. One of these studies reported a 99% effectiveness in 454 patients who had only two topical treatment one week apart. In a 1991 double blind placebo triel on 148 children with head lice, those treated with quassia bark extract had reported fewer new cases, demonstrating a preventive activity against lice.

How is it used?? Basically you prepare a water extract with the wood or powder of the Quassia tree. You soak it overnight, strain it, and then rinse your hair with the water extract.

It is so easy and natural that you should try it.

BUY QUASSIA NOW
