They sought out the Baby Jesus and worshipped him, offering him gold, frankincense and myrrh.<\/p>\n<p>But why myrrh?<\/p>\n<p>During the Roman Empire, myrrh was considered a precious extract obtained in distant regions of present-day Somalia as resin from the Commiphora myrrha tree.<\/p>\n<p>Myrrh was used as an ingredient in perfumes, for embalming corpses, pain relief, as a sedative and to treat various illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>Today, science has confirmed the true properties of myrrh, and the result is that ancient traditions were right because we have confirmed that myrrh is a good phytogenic antimicrobial, antiparasitic, and anti-inflammatory agent.<\/p>\n<p>Below is one of the many articles confirming its powerful antimicrobial properties.<\/p>\n<p>Further research is needed to develop appropriate uses for this promising extract, but we are confident that it will be an interesting line of research.<\/p>\n<p>Disfruten del art\u00edculo.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-button-wrapper\"><style>.fusion-body .fusion-button.button-1{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/pdfs.semanticscholar.org\/837b\/4f2921c4d82c585e8aa288dab90c3ab5332c.pdf?_ga=2.67169937.1621246391.1641378719-149460304.1634136432\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text\">Access to the article<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear colleagues, During this week, several countries around the world [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7796,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1060],"tags":[1070,1149,1282,1184,1283,1284,1086,986,1112],"class_list":["post-7797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-natural-ingredients","tag-anti-inflammatory","tag-antimicrobial","tag-antiparasitic","tag-christmas","tag-history","tag-myrrh","tag-natural-feeding","tag-natural-ingredients","tag-three-wise-men"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7797"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7797\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7799,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7797\/revisions\/7799"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7796"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nutribiogenics.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
