[00:00:00]One of the most dangerous plant toxins  in the world… comes from this tree.

[00:00:06]This is Strychnos nux-vomica.

[00:00:08]It may look ordinary… even harmless.

[00:00:12]But inside its seeds is a  powerful poison called strychnine.

[00:00:17]Strychnine attacks your nervous system… triggering intense muscle spasms… locking your body in place…  while you remain fully conscious.

[00:00:26]Even a small amount can be extremely dangerous.

[00:00:29]These seeds were once used in arrow poisons… designed to paralyze quickly.

[00:00:35]Today, strychnine is highly regulated… and is mostly used in toxic  baits to control wild animals.

[00:00:42]What’s even more alarming… poisoning doesn’t only happen if you eat it.

[00:00:47]It can occur by breathing in the powder… or even through absorption into the skin.

[00:00:54]Despite this… this plant has been promoted in herbal medicine… claimed to treat conditions like  heart disease and even cancer.

[00:01:03]But there is no scientific  evidence it actually works.

[00:01:08]A plant that has caused suffering for centuries… yet still exists in the world today.
