I came across this today! out of the blues... after reading it I wonder if this is why my mother was anorexic and sick a lot vomiting? She loved house plants, Then I started to think? I wonder if this is why I was sick and during my marriage after reading this for a second time I wondered if maybe just maybe? This is why I was so ill and maybe why my kids always had breathing problems. Then I learned that a lot of plants can make you have rashes and blisters from the oils or pricklies on the, even the secretion of toxic when in bloom. Then I learned that it can cause Flu type systems so I thought I would just look all this up and Post it here! Because of Anorexic People like Myself!
