Ruta Graveolens is the herb known in English as rue, Garden Rue, Herbygrass, Herb-of-Grace. It's been used for more than two thousand years. This Cooper guy wouldn't have 'discovered' it, he just would have read about it in Turner's 'Herbal' of 1562. Hippocrates recommended it, and according to Mrs Grieve in 'A Modern Herbal' it was a chief ingredient of the famous antidote to poison used by Mithridates. It was introduced to Britain by the Romans and grows wild in parts of Lancashire and Yorkshire. In Chiapas we know it as ruta, and the women use it widely, especially with babies, I think against colic. It's supposed to be useful against flatulence as well. The leaves can be quite refreshing to chew, we have a plant here in the garden in BC and I often nibble a bit. But its origin was in Southern Europe, and it's grown around the world, it's not a plant specific to Amazonia. Several of the listings on aznt's website sound familiar, for instance 'Canela' is just Spanish for cinnamon. Also U¤a de Gato is common and widely used in Chiapas, and I think it grows at least as far north as Veracruz. I doubt that a person with knowledge of the cultivation and uses of herbs wrote the website.

Hawkeye, a few quotes from the second link you provided: <<<<Although it is used in very low concentrations, it does have side effects such as hair loss, says Horwitz. She stresses that people and animals have died from ingesting taxol in its natural state. Phytochemicals, like many other chemicals, can be toxic and must be properly formulated and tested before using. >>>> Uh oh. Sounds like people selling phytochemicals by mail in their "natural state" could be setting themselves up for some huge lawsuits if the correct amounts have not been scientifically determined. But wait... they are just "nutritional supplements, right? <<<< Phytochemicals differ from vitamins and minerals in that they have no known nutritional value. >>>>> Also: <<<< Phytochemicals are also being studied in cancer treatment, where they are used in amounts so concentrated they qualify as drugs. >>>>> So: 1) Phytochemicals are not nutritional supplements. 2) In their natural state, they have killed people who have ingested them. 3) In order to treat cancer, they must be classified as drugs. Thanks for the warnings, Hawkeye. Good work. I'm sure today's drop in the stock will be blamed on shorting, and not the evidence piling up against these clowns.
