The debate has been opened as to whether it is poison or medicine, or questions have been raised about how the “poison” of a frog can bring benefits. The truth is that this has been a medicinal practice carried out by indigenous communities for thousands of years, as well as being part of the ancestral knowledge that they have protected to sustain the health and balance of the tribe. That is why today we will talk about the Kambo and we will also tell you about some of the benefits that the ancestral communities have taken advantage of when using this medicine for their own and for all those who have received the call of the frog that cleanses and purifies.

WHAT IS KAMBO?
The Kambó is one of the ancestral medicines that the Amazonian territory has guarded for its benefits for the integral health of the being. It consists of using the “poison” of a frog from the territory called Phyllomedusa Bicolor for curative and medicinal purposes. To extract this substance, the ancestral communities of the Amazon have created a safe and compassionate way with the frog because it is the being that provides the medicine. Although it can be considered an unwise practice, indigenous communities have insisted on the practice of Kambo for its multiple benefits for the balance of the body, mind and spirit.
