Candle Bush (Senna alata)—also known as Ringworm Bush, Emperor’s Candle, Cassia alata, and in Spanish Hojas de Candelón / Mata de Candelón—is a traditional tropical herb celebrated for its powerful antifungal, antimicrobial, and skin-purifying properties. Rich in anthraquinones, resins, and cleansing compounds, candle bush supports healthy skin and helps the body clear stubborn fungal imbalance.

Commonly used to ease ringworm, eczema, fungal infections, rashes, itching, discoloration, and heat-related skin irritation, candle bush also supports gentle detoxification and digestive movement. Its strong cleansing nature makes it a staple in Caribbean and Amazonian folk medicine.

Enjoyed as a topical poultice, infused oil, salve, tea, or wash, candle bush provides targeted skin support and natural fungal cleansing.
