Witch tips without warnings just keep popping up …
Hey kids,
Before you rub an unknown thing on your skin, ingest an unfamiliar thing, light a random recommendation from the internet on fire, or otherwise come in contact with something that you are not personally knowledgeable about, take 2 seconds and google it.
For example:
- St. Johns Wort, if ingested, has negative interactions with anti-depressants, and interferes with birth control because it speeds up the metabolism of certain substances.
- Continuous exposure to fluorite causes a painful bone disease. Fluorite dust can be absorbed through the lungs, skin, and is soluble in water.
- There are parts of yew that should not be burned.
- Mugwort is related to ragweed and can cause allergic reactions. Also, it can cause and enhance anxiety.
- Essential oils, man …
No, really. 2 seconds. Google. You’re at an internet connected device anyway. Save yourself the trouble of a bad time.
