What is Kambo?
Kambo is a secretion extracted from the Giant Monkey tree frog (lat.Phyllomedusa Bicocor) that lives natively in the Amazon Jungle. Once collected it is applied to the body via small burn holes where it can enter the lymphatic system Kambo does not enter the bloodstream. Kambo is beneficial on the emotional, spiritual and physical levels. Kambo is referred to by some tribes as the "jungle vaccine"". It is used by various indigenous tribes of the amazon. The local tribesmen traditionally use it for physical strength and stamina, mental and spiritual clarity and also to rid themselves of "Panama"(bad luck). While there has been no modern clinical research done on humans there are many people that have benefitted and changed their lives through Kambo. It has been used to help conditions including asthma, malaria, depression, infertility, diabetes, chronic illness,PSTD and much more. It is a natural antibiotic and immune system builder It detoxifies the liver and intestines it has the potential to reset cellular memory and help dissolve emotional blocks. The venom contains short chains of amino acids know as peptides, that affect blood circulation and gastrointestinal muscles that stimulate the adrenal cortex and pituitary gland in the brain. It is NOT psychedelic or psychoactive. The frogs are not harmed during the extraction and are always treated with great care and reverence.

Kambo experience
During the treatment you will receive a small burn into the top layers of the skin using the end of a piece of Tamshi (vine) or incense stick. The area of the body will be selected beforehand. The burned layer of skin is removed and the secretion is placed on the area. Depending on the skin type these burn marks might be visible for many months after the treatment.

Within a few minutes after the application, most people experience a warm flush in the upper body along with an increased heart rate . Some people experience swelling of the face (frog face). Sweating,nausea and vomiting,eye discharge,dizziness,chills,numbness in the hands, diarrhea. Usually the most intense part of the treatment will last 15-30 minutes. Depending on the individuals health the after effects can vary tremendously. If you are relatively in good health you will likely experience increased energy, clarity,and a general sense of peace and wellbeing.

After which the person will feel better then before they had their treatment.

Kambo Chemistry
Scientist Vittorio Erspamer of the University of Rome, a nominee for the Nobel prize, wrote that the Kambo secretion contains a “fantastic chemical cocktail with potential medical applications, unequaled by any other amphibian." Kambo has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, which means it can penetrate deep into the cells and where it can draw out toxins and free radicals. Thus far, researchers have discovered nine main peptides (a short chain of amino acids), some of which are bio-active – meaning that they perform specific functions in the body. The 9 main peptides in Kambo are as follows:
- Bradykinins (phyllokinin) : Long lasting reduction in blood pressure.
- Tachykinins (phyllomedusin) : Vasodilator, produces gastric secretions, affects salivary glands, tear ducts, and bowels.
- Cerulean : Reduces blood pressure, potent analgesic, modifies satiety, sedation, and thermoregulation.
- Dermaseptin : Potent antimicrobial activity against bacteria, yeast, fungi, protozoa, and opportunistic infections such as AIDS
- Tryptophyllins : Somewhat obscure, but recently found to be highly effective in treating candida.
- Dermorphins : Potent opiate-like activity which have potent analgesic effects 30-40% more potent than Morphine. May affect pituitary hormone release and pulmonary ventilation.
- Deltorphins : Has a higher affinity and selectivity for delta opioid binding sites than any known natural compound.
- Bombesins : Neuropeptides that are active in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
- Andenoregulin : A 33 amino acid peptide that interacts with the adenosine receptor, a fundamental component in all human cell fuel and has shown to be very effective in killing cancer cells.
