Curiosities:

Boldo is considered the true plant of Boldo from the Andes Mountains, which stretch across South America. This plant can reach a height of 12 meters, and the only part used for medicinal purposes is its leaves. Boldo is used to relieve symptoms caused by liver diseases. Besides being an exceptional ally for gastric well-being, the Boldo promotes intestinal balance. In its natural state, the Chile Boldo grows in low humid environments and stony soils. However, the growth of this tree is rather slow, perhaps due to the conditions of the place where it grows.
