The Science Behind Kambo
The Science of Peptides - Kambo's secret healing weapon 🐸 🧬
How exactly does Kambo work? 🤔
What's up with all the purging? 🤮
Why does my temperature increase? 🔥
How is that I can feel my heart beat so profoundly? 🫀

No, you're not being poisoned! (Run the other way if your practitioner calls kambo a poison 🙄)
The sensations you feel during a kambo session are a direct response to the peptides in the secretion.
The peptides in the secretion of the Phyllomedusa Bicolor are bioactive compounds which play various roles including antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral activities, making them a natural defense mechanism developed over evolutionary history to protect the frog in its' intense Amazonian habitat. (The secretion also potentially acts a lubricant and a suncreen, among many other ways it protects the Giant Waxy Tree Frog.)
In essence, when we interact with Kambo, we're not only purifying ourselves physically but also connecting with a long-standing ancestral and evolutionary lineage of healing.
Amazonian tribes for centuries have utilized this blend of chemicals through their traditions and intuition.
We as humans also produce peptides, which are directly boosted, reactivated and amplified with the support of Kambo's peptides.
