My massage therapist knows how to prepare the makabuhay leaves of the makabuhay vine. She mixes this with your regular virgin coconut oil. We use this potion to apply to stubborn local infestations like my 2nd son’s feet.
Although virgin coconut oil has anti-germ properties by itself, the bitterness from makabuhay leaves make it even more potent. The VCO – makabuhay concoction is clear dark yellow.
Makabuhay vines are easy to grow. Just snap up a vine and wrap some on your tree.
