it is a little known butter that has many wonderful healing properties due to its high myristoleic acid content used to treat pain in the muscles and joints. Myristoleic acid is also used for arthritis and gout. Kombo butter comes from west africa and has a beautiful unusual color that I describe as a deep chocolate burgundy that almost has a dark blue hue.
Listed below are a few notable properties: I like to make a body butter or whipped butter with kombo butter adding essential oils that would assist with joint pain relief. I apply this after a rigorous day of horseback riding or gardening to help ease the stiffness from overused muscles. Sometimes I rub in on my hands and fingers if they are feeling stiff and painful.
