Aconite
Aconite :
Also known as Fu-Tzu and Monkshood. Extremely powerful and potentially toxic herb. Considered an effective stimulant for the spleen and kidneys. Also used in the treatment for general weakness, cancer, malaise, poor circulation, and heart disease. Aconite's toxic ingredient is an extremely potent central nervous system poison called "Aconitine". Even in extremely small amounts, this potent chemical can inhibit respiration, and in larger amounts can lead to complete heart failure! Aconitine can be extremely toxic. This is definitely not an herb for casual use by the herbal novice, and if used at all, should only be done so under the close supervision & monitoring of a knowledgeable practitioner
