Hi !
Thanks for choosing healthcaremagicc.om.Anacardic acid is found in the shell of cashew.
Primarily used for tooth abscesses, it is also active against acne, some insects, tuberculosis, and MRSA. It is primarily found in foods such as cashew nuts, cashew apples, and cashew nutshell oil, but also in mangos and Pelargonium geraniums.
I find this answer helpful
