Friday's Hadleigh Breakfast Briefing
By Derek Davis 18th Jun 2021
Friday's Fascinating Flower Facts
Foxgloves are beautiful and life-saving, but are also potentially dangerous. They are a form of digitalis, which is an example of a cardio-active or cardiotonic drug, in other words a steroid which has the ability to exert a specific and powerful action on the cardiac muscle in animals, and has been used in the treatment of heart conditions ever since its discovery in 1775. However, but it is at the same time a dangerously toxic plant which, if used wrongly, can cause heart palpitations, delirium, hallucinations, vomiting and possibly death. This powerful plant has been used for heart tonics since Celtic and Roman times.Today's Hadleigh sunrise: 04:35
