The Tagua nut is the seed of the Phytelephas sp. palm tree, which is native to the tropical rainforests of South America. The Tagua nut has been used for centuries by indigenous communities for its medicinal and cultural properties. It is rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, and has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects.
