What to expect 

The effects of Kambo come on very strong, and can include flushing, rise in body temperature, pounding in the head, sweating, dizziness, and increased heart rate. Some experience a burning sensation where the secretion has been applied, which can spread throughout the body. Other effects can include more awareness, tingling, sensation, or discomfort in various parts of the body. Extreme nausea is experienced with physical purging of toxins, and some experience loosening of the bowels or diarrhea. It is normal for inflammation and swelling to occur in the throat, face, and lips, which will pass. These effects are temporary, and usually last no longer than 30-40 minutes.
​
Once the Kambo is removed, you are invited to rest to integrate the experience. Tea with honey and fresh fruit will be provided after to regain electrolytes.

The effects of Kambo 

The after effects of Kambo differ for everyone, and can include elevated mood, increased energy, clarity of mind, increased focus, clearing of emotional baggage, and removal of toxic behavioural and thought patterns.

Kambo can also provide a physical detox and strengthen the immune system by stimulating the body’s defence system to fall back into its natural rhythm, which can resolve existing health problems and precaution against future health problems. Due to the various peptides, it also acts as a natural anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, antimicrobial and anesthetic. These effects may occur immediately, or unfold over the weeks or months to follow.​

Kambo has now been subject to medical research for over two decades. Research has found that Kambo has been beneficial for Diabetes, Cancer, Chronic Pain, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Addictions, Parkinson’s Disease, HIV, Hepatitis, Depression, Anxiety, Vascular problems, and much more. I encourage you to do some independent research on the uses of Kambo. Please visit https://iakp.org/research/ for a number of research articles.
