Very interesting! Thanks for sharing! From the photos I imagine you picked this plant yourself, can you tell me what region of the world you are from? Is it common in your area? Is it a subtle herbal use or does it have intense anticonvulsant potential similar to some drugs? Would you be able to say what is the mechanism of action that makes her anti-epileptic?
