Would you equate scorpion venom reaction as a parallel to the effect of caffeine? The high Copper, the spike in blood pressure upwards, later the subsequent drop in blood pressure, the antiestrogenic effects, the stimulant, sleeplessness?
I have been ruminating about the use of scorpion venom for cancer…
What troubled me was the raising of blood pressure…But I remembered that licorice root, a tremendous antiestrogen, also did that temporarily, as does caffeine…
I checked the chemical constituents of scorpion venom for Copper, since Copper lowers estrogen…Phosphorus is the element on the Grove Body Part chart, for estrogen type things…
Excerpt from link:’Quantitative analysis show Copper to be the… ‘ (chemistry of scorpion venom study)…
A quick look though shows other constituents…Copper is anti cancer ( lowers phosphorus)yes, Manganese lowers iron so yes, Arsenic lowers blood sugar so yes, Zinc lowers Lead levels so yes…But the high Calcium could be a problem as it raises progesterone, which can make lumps feel bigger, like dairy does…
Checking a chart from the linked study…
Magnesium lowers mercury, so yes good…But Iron & Nickel are not good…
Let’s take a look though at Blue scorpion venom, because that is the type we see often touted for anticancer properties…What is it made of predominantly? Oh, nope…Cannot get a decent chemical analysis for this subtype…Ok…Let’s try a different tactic…
Interestingly, scorpion venom has been used for Vitiligo…So has licorice root…So has , Polypodium Leucotomos, which is also used for malignant tumour in Honduras…

So I am thinking this Copper aspect is the main draw for scorpion venom…

Hi...I'm Sari Grove...Sari sounds like Mary...Grove is the last name I took from my husband, 'cause it is a really nice name, & he was very very good looking, & I married him, & my maiden name, the name I grew up with, was "Slatt", which could be turned into all sorts of unfortunate words, which is why when I was looking for a mate, I sought someone with a cool last name...(I cannot tell you how many totally worthy men I had to ignore due to their last names being unmelodic or otherwise unsuitable...)
Grove Canada is a pen name, mostly because when I needed a web address, I could not get Grove.com or even grove.ca, so I just got GroveCanada, due to a serious lack of imagination in that moment...It stuck, so I still use it...I thought this time, if I used Grove Canada as a pen name, that maybe you might look up my blog online, at GroveCanada.ca, & enjoy the freshness of getting information from the horse's mouth, up to the minute, rather than the instant obsoleteness that a book creates...Like a car depreciates as soon as you buy it-a book is old as soon as it is published...For a Virgo perfectionist, this inability to easily update, with a new chapter, with new research, causes me constant worrisome self-abnegating, consternation...
I use those dot dot dot things, the etcetera symbol, at the end of my sentences, as a habit-you will always know it is me writing, you will always pause at the end of a sentence to think for a moment, you will remember that poetry is beautiful, & you will take everything I say with a giant grain of Pink Himalayan salt(since the grammatical error will irk you into that state of skepticism)!
Love & Hugs, Sari
ps. I became a Christian at the age of 21, which may seem like a non sequitur, & though my faith is decent my works may not really do justice to that title-but I thought I'd mention it, since my first name Sari always seems to force an assumption about my background-and though you would be right to assume that it tends to be a Jewish name, you might not be right in assuming that that is what I am going to sound like when I expound on some of my karmic principles or other ethical compasses I have developed...Not that I have done away with my past, it is just I have iced the cake with the new updated version-so if you wrong me, I may just turn the other cheek(New), instead of doing the eye for an eye thing back at you!(old)...
