🌿 Caladium Seguinum – The Antidote for Tobacco Craving, Impotence & Irritable Skin

Latin Name: Caladium seguinum
Common Names: Dumb Cane, Angel Wings, Caladium
Family: Araceae (Arum family)
Source: Prepared from the fresh root of the Caladium plant, known for its ornamental foliage and toxic calcium oxalate crystals — rendered safe and therapeutic through homeopathic potentization.

📜 Botanical and Medical History

Originally native to South and Central America, Caladium seguinum is known in herbal traditions as a toxic plant avoided for ingestion due to severe irritation. Homeopathy, however, converts this poison into a curative remedy, especially for nervous system, genital, skin, and tobacco-related disorders.
