BodyGuard Natural Poison Oak, Sumac and Poison Ivy Remedy - 30 ml.

Three years of intensive research and development has produced a totally new product for relief from Poison Oak, Poison Ivy and Poison Sumac. It is derived from a living plant and the natural phyto-chemicals relieve the itching instantly. With continued use, the redness and itching go away in a few days.

In the Spring of 2000. The California Department of Forestry conducted extensive testing of Alphacura BodyGuard for the FIELD in the Santa Cruz County Ranger unit. This part of the state is totally infested with poison oak. After this season of testing, the Battalion Chief found that Alphacura BodyGuard for the FIELD worked better than any other product they had used before. Not only did it give quick lasting relief, but it substantially reduced down time from the rashes caused by poison oak.

These three plants, poison oak, poison ivy and poison sumac are officially classified as Toxicodendrons, toxico meaning poison and dendreon meaning plant or tree.

URUSHIOL - The Poison Behind the Plants
All three of these toxicodendron plants contain Urushiol, a substance found in all parts of the plant. Urushiol is among the world’s most potent external toxins. The amount of Urushiol it takes to cause a reaction is measured in nanograms, one billionth of a gram. Most sensitive people react in the 100 nanogram range. One leading toxicologist has estimated that it would take just one ounce of Urushoil to cause a rash on everyone in America.

Treatment for Urushoil exposure should begin as soon as possible. Urushoil can penetrate the skin pores within ten minutes. The faster it's treated, the less damage will be done and the sooner healing begins.

After contact with Urushoil, it is generally advised to wash the affected areas with soap and cold water to remove the oil. Hot water causes the pores to open allowing the oil to be absorbed.

Using Alphacura BodyGuard for the FIELD spray applicator, apply a light mist covering to the affected skin, two or three times a day. Allow to dry before covering the area with clothing. Wear light cotton clothing, keep well ventilated, avoid rubbing and pressure. Sterile gauze can be used to protect the area. Once the area is cleansed and Alpha-Sterol BodyGuard for the FIELD is applied, do not apply any other product.
