Kambo

Application of secretion of Kambo frog for healing purposes

Kambo, derived from the secretions of the giant monkey tree frog, is a traditional South American medicine used in cleansing rituals. The ritual involves applying the substance to small burns on the skin, inducing an intense purging effect. Advocates believe kambo can aid in healing trauma, depression, and anxiety, and enhance spiritual connection. However, its healing effects are scientifically unverified, and there have been instances of fatalities following its use.
