Aconitum Napellus, or Aconite, is from the plant Monkshood (lethal Chinese herb). This plant has been used in the past as a poison for dipping arrows. Aconitine and its related alkaloids are known cardiotoxins with no therapeutic role in modern western medicine. Aconite's poison acts very quickly on the systems of the body. But its highly toxic and laboratory studies have reported mortality its still being used in the Homeopathic system of medicine and Chinese traditional mediine.Aconite helps with symptoms from sudden shock, fear, fright (http://www.elixirs.com/products.cfm?productcode=S61)
Now that they have reported the involvement of drug in Bob Woolmer murder case, the entire episode will be downplayed saying that drug overdose might have caused death. Remember when Akhtar was caught for doping they claimed that it might have been accidently mixed/present in the herbal medicine that he was taking. The investigation should be passed to somebody else. Its ineffective on all fronts. Cant differentiate between manual strangulation and poisoning???
