Ignatius Bean Strychnos ignatii is a climbing shrub native to the Philippines and Southeast Asia, with its seed known as the Ignatius bean. This bean contains toxic compounds like strychnine and brucine. Historically, it was used in traditional medicine for its stimulating properties and to treat paralysis and digestive issues. However, due to its toxicity, it's considered unsafe. Ingesting 30-50 mg of the bean (containing about 5 mg of strychnine) can cause restlessness, anxiety, heightened senses, increased reflexes, balance issues, stiff and painful neck and back muscles, twitching, spasms of the jaw and neck muscles, kidney failure with urine discoloration, muscle tissue breakdown, severe tension, and difficulty breathing due to muscle spasms. Because of these effects, extreme caution should be exercised, and medical guidance is strongly advised before using Ignatius bean.

What Dietary Supplements Contain Ignatius Bean?

It's important to note that Ignatius bean supplements are generally only sold in highly diluted forms as homeopathic remedies. This dilution is done because the beans contain toxic substances like strychnine and brucine, making them potentially toxic. By diluting them significantly, homeopathic preparations aim to minimize the risk of toxicity while still potentially retaining some of their supposed therapeutic effects, according to homeopathic principles. However, it's important to note that the efficacy and safety of such highly diluted preparations are a subject of debate and scientific study.
