Findings
Tamanu oil sped up wound healing in rats by boosting the body's natural repair response—specifically increasing immune cells and collagen formation by day 7. However, it caused less wound contraction than the comparison treatment (Centella asiatica), which could mean slower visible closing depending on wound type.
