Is it true that ingesting a snake plant/ mother-in-laws tongue can make you mute?
I was told that by eating a part of my Snake Plant or Mother-in-Law's Tongue, it would make my vocal box numb so that I couldn't talk.
Is this true? Can you give me a cite or tell me how/why??
please & thank you.

For the best answers, search on this site, you can find out more about natural hemorrhoids cure here:

Note that:
Diarrhea can contribute to hemorrhoid formation because the bowel undergoes pressure strains due to the condition. Undue pressure on the veins that make up internal hemorrhoidal structures can worsen existing damage. Internal hemorrhoids are not visible, unless they proplapse (protrude) from the anus, either constantly or during a bowel movement. If this is the case, then you have a grade III or IV internal hemorrhoid. If the protrusion is on the anal verge or the area surrounding the anus, then its likely an external hemorrhoid. Reducing pressure from issues of diarrhea and constipation will help. Not straining during a bowel movement, not lifting heavy objects, not sitting for extended periods, all will help.

An external hemorrhoid is simply a vein located at the anal verge, the wall of which as weakened and protruded. Don't push on it, this will only increase pressure and worsen it. The body has to repair the vein wall and rebuild the integrity. This takes time, perhaps weeks, if all goes well. Use sitz baths and over-the-counter medications such as pads or creams to provide symptom relief in the interim. These won't solve the issue long term, but will give the tissue a better chance at self-healing.
Internal hemorrhoids are a different matter and require more intervention. Your best bet is to educate yourself about the condition, its causes and what options there are to treat it both short and long term. Don't ignore it though, hemorrhoids tend to become chronic in nature, lasting years or decades in some cases.

Hemorrhoid No More book was extremely readable clear and concise and I enjoyed reading it very much. I especially liked the objective presentation of holistic medical treatments. https://tr.im/CureForHemorrhoids

Snake plants don't attract snakes. The leaves look like snake's tongue. That's why they call it Snake Plant.
- SpyderbearLv 61 decade ago
Whoever told you this is probably confusing snake plant with dieffenbachia (sp?). This translates as "dumb cane." The sap of this plant contains paralyzing compounds. They can paralyze the voice box, and sufficient ingestion can paralyze the diaphragm, resulting in death.
The snake plant is mildly toxic.

If this were true, how many husbands would be growing the stuff?
All kidding aside, don't eat any plant you do not know the effects of.

As mentioned Diefenbachia (dumb cane) will do that. Here is some info on the medicinal value of Sansevieria: http://www.killerplants.com/plant-of-the-week/2005...
