Mimosa hostilis Inner Root Bark (MHRB) – Powder

Mimosa Hostilis Inner Root Bark (MHRB) – Powder

We offer Mimosa Hostilis inner root bark from a reputed source (Brazil), a company that has years of experience in harvesting and processing Mimosa Hostilis root bark.Our shop believe that this is the best quality Mimosa available on the market. We always offer a freshly harvested batch, not an old stock!

Our supplier is using sustainable harvesting methods – only one root is harvested from each plant.
The greedy suppliers however are willing to kill a whole tree for all its roots.

The pastures where our harvest comes from do not receive any chemical pesticides as the grass and herbs grow naturally during the rainy season and pests are naturally controlled by the six-month dry period. Also during processing no chemicals, in fact, no product at all is used.

The cleaned inner root bark is transported in boxes to a secure, clean glass greenhouse designed to prevent product contamination.

• Shade-Dried: The bark dries under 70% shade for a few days to protect its delicate compounds.

• Finely Ground: Clean machinery grinds the bark into a fine powder.

• Fiber-Filtered: Filtering removes the filler fibers before the powder is packed quickly into secure bags.

130% Concentrated MHRB Powder

Our agile logistics system processes small quantities a few times a week, preserving the bark’s vital functional components. Removing the filler fibers makes the final product 30% more concentrated. Our powder delivers 130% pure inner root bark compared to standard market sources.

What is Mimosa Tenuiflora (Jurema Preta)?

Mimosa tenuiflora—commonly known as Mimosa hostilis, Acacia hostilis, “calumbi,” or “jurema preta” in Brazil—is a tree belonging to the Leguminosae family.

This legume tree reaches 5 to 7 meters tall and grows as secondary opportunistic vegetation. It thrives in the tropical deciduous forests of the Americas, stretching from southeastern Mexico to northern Brazil and Venezuela. Its high tannin content makes it an essential forage plant used to feed small ruminants in the “caatinga” (the semi-desert interior of northeastern Brazil) during the dry season.

Traditional Uses and Benefits of Mimosa Hostilis

Mimosa tenuiflora has a rich history in traditional medicine and ethnobotanical care, backed by modern observations:

• Skin & Burn Healing: Mexican ethnobotanic sources note that direct application of the dried powdered bark to lesions effectively treats skin burns and wounds.

• Traditional Remedies: In Palmeiras (Bahia State, Brazil), locals use the bark for coughs and wound healing.

• Antimicrobial Properties: Studies show a standardized tannin extract obtained from the bark offers excellent therapeutic properties for treating skin venous leg ulcerations. It demonstrates strong in vitro antimicrobial properties against a wide group of microorganisms.
