I STRONGLY recommend that **NO HERB** be taken internally without the
advice of a licensed, homeopathic physician, or herbalist, and not without
medical expertise participating. THings affecting the heart, be they
Mandrake or Digitalis are in that category we plant people refer to as:
"One chance is all you get" .... this is **NOT** a dress rehearsal.

I have very little respect for western medicine, BUT there are certain
areas you don't take chances in ... the first one being things that can
kill you in less than 60 seconds ... this of course would also include
Elderberry plant parts
Poison Hemlock
Water Hemlock

and generally, any member of the carrot family since it is so easy to
confuse them.

Mii sago minik!
