Leviton

The Old Vegetable Neurotics, Hemlock, Opium, Belladonna and Henbane

Description: This book delves into the profound, yet often overlooked, effects of hemlock, a plant known throughout history for its potent and even deadly properties. The author, drawing upon his own experiences and meticulously documented observations, challenges conventional understanding of hemlock's medical uses. He demonstrates that its action is not merely one of paralysis but a highly specific and targeted suppression of motor function, leaving other aspects of the nervous system untouched. The author meticulously details the stages of hemlock's action on different parts of the body, and explores how its effects vary depending on the individual's activity level. He further explores the subtle ways in which hemlock can be used to diagnose and treat a range of ailments. This work offers a fresh perspective on a plant long shrouded in mystery, revealing its potential as a powerful therapeutic agent.
