Burbur pinella

So I've posted something similar before with not many responses. I'm just noticing burbur pinella has like 24-28% ethanol in it. Cant find it without ethanol like most tinctures.Maybe this is why I feel drunk and more depersonalized when I take only like 2 drops. I've heard a few other ppl say they couldn't tolerate it and had some of these messed up symptoms. Think it's the ethanol in it? Also I've read that it's either burbur or pinella that can be toxic to the brain and cause seizures and stuff. I'm stuck here because idk what more I can take for a brain detox besides burburb pinella? I thought of parsley drops but of course I'm allergic to parsley, black walnut, and wormwood gives me seizures like twice which says can also be toxic to the brain and cause seizures.

Where did you see information about burbur or/and pinella being toxic?

I wonder that too!

I did use it - didn’t seem to harm me.

I misread this info and confused it with a very similar Chinese herb so it's probably not toxic however the pinella has a very strong estrogen effect and all this other info is found below, I'll send a link.
Burbur-Pinella is a combination of two extracts: Burbur, produced from Desmodium molliculum, and Pinella, produced from Pimpinella anisum; both perennial plants from South

America.https://greenlifecyprus.com/products/burbur-pinella-1

I used it today and had some heart palpitations after, but I haven't been feeling well for about 10 days now so I wouldn't make the connection necessarily.

I'm trying it again after I had previously tried it a couple times a few years ago. I'm not really noticing any benefit.

Heart palps after taking it is probably a clear sign that it can effect us all differently. I took only a drop or 2 and maybe a few sips. Tiny sips to see how it effect me and let me tell you, it made me sooooo drowsy and I felt "too relaxed" as the pinella is used as a muscle relaxant as it says in the link so maybe it was too relaxing for me. It made me drowsy and relaxed but at the same time I had insomnia and felt spaced out and drunk and this was when I took it before bed lol so it wasn't a great feeling to b exhausted but wide awake at the same time. It also states that burbur pinella is used as an antimicrobial which leads me to believe it could have indeed killed off some lyme, Bart, babs, mold etc. If it's used as an antimicrobial it could be very well that some people can experience die off I suppose? Even though it's suppose to be used to minimize bad herx 🤷‍♀️ That's just 1 of my theories though. Also having 24-28% ethanol in it because I felt the same way off of some of buhners tinctures with ethanol. Very spacy and drunk like , must be all that ethanol.

I wouldn't attribute my heart palps yesterday to the burbur-pinella. I had been having some heart palps in the days leading up to yesterday before I took any burbur-pinella. That happens when I'm not feeling well. I have used burbur-pinella years ago and I don't remember having any issues with it, but, it didn't really seem to help. I am getting that same experience again.

That's interesting about the muscle relaxing properties. I can totally relate to the exhausted but can't sleep feeling. I often get insomnia when I try to treat. Makes everything so much worse. My doctor gave me klonopin for sleep and boy does it work, but not a fan of taking benzos often.

Yeah, if it had an anti-microbial effect then that could cause an issue.
