Hazelwood Jewelry is made from the branches of the Corylus cornuta. Although unproven, Hazelwood jewelry is sold and worn to purportedly help create an alkaline environment in the human body, which may or may not help prevent or reverse maladies caused by being too acidic. Hazelwood, being an alkaline wood, is believed to have the natural property of absorbing and neutralizing the body's acidity through contact with the skin. Hazelwood that is sold over the internet claims to holistically treat a number of things. This includes: eczema, digestion, constipation, migraines, acid reflux, heartburn, nausea, arthritis, acne, psoriasis, and teething pain.<ref name="hazelaid1"/><ref name="amberandhaze1"/>
