The source of the Myrrh Hagar resin (also known as Sweet Myrrh) is from the the Commiphora holtziana tree. The tree oozes a pale yellow-white viscous liquid from natural cracks in the bark or from fissures or when cut. The exudate hardens into a reddish-brown mass when air dried.
Traditionally the resin of Myrrh Hagar is a good source of medicine for the treatment of inflammation, arthritis, obesity, microbial infection, wounds, pain, fractures, tumors, gastrointestinal diseases, snake bites and scorpion stings. The resin of Myrrh Hagar is also used traditionally as an excellent acaricide.
Commercially Myrrh Hagar is used for aromatherapy, essential oils, cosmetics and herbal treatments. Different studies have indicated Myrrh Hagar to have excellent pharmacological activities and recent studies have supported the resin to possess anti-viral and anti-fungal properties.
