kambo (Frog medicine)
Kambo (frog medicine/venom) is the secretion from the bright green giant monkey frog (Phyllomedusa bicolor—also known as the giant leaf frog) that lives in the north-west area of the Amazon rain forest. Indigenous tribes have used it as a prophylactic against malaria, and also to boost strength and stamina. The frogs are not injured from the collection of their secretions, which are obtained via scraping onto wooden “Kambo sticks”.

This medicine is native to the Matses tribe and has been used by their people for thousands of years. Its primary ingredient tobacco, which is mixed with macambo nut, cacao, and the barks and leaves of medicinal trees from the Amazon jungle.
