Wikipedia

  1. calamus oil

    Acorus calamus (also called sweet flag, sway or muskrat root, among many common names) is a species of flowering plant with psychoactive chemicals. It is a tall wetland monocot of the family Acoraceae, in the genus Acorus. Although used in traditional medicine over centuries to treat digestive disorders and pain, there is no clinical evidence for its safety or efficacy – and ingested calamus may be toxic – leading to its commercial ban in the United States.

  1. calamus oil

    Calamus oil is an essential oil extracted from the root of the sweet flag plant, scientifically known as Acorus Calamus. It is traditionally used in aromatherapy and alternative medicine due to its properties as an anti-rheumatic, antimicrobial, antispasmodic, memory-boosting, and nervine stimulant. However, in high doses, it can be toxic and hallucinogenic. It is also commonly used in perfumery, and as a flavoring in certain types of spirits and beers.
