Description:
Mandrake Fruit: Nature: cold in the third degree and dry in the second. Best when large and aromatic. Beneficial: its fragrance soothes headaches; and as a poultice for leprosy and black infections of the skin. Detrimental: it deadens the senses and causes drowsiness. Remedy the Detriment: with ivy fruit.
