Boldo is Suitable for Vegetarians
and Vegans
Boldo (Peumus boldus) is a
shrubby evergreen tree that is native to the Andean regions of Chile and Peru
and grows to heights of 6-8m. It produces small, berrylike fruit - but it is the
leaves which are used by herbalists.
Boldo has many active plant chemicals, including many alkaloids, but much of the
biological activity of the plant has been attributed to a single alkaloid called
boldine.
