Dosage: Not covered (AHP). “Hazards and/or side effects not known for proper therapeutic dosages†(PH2). “Consumption of larger quantities of the fresh kraut (= herb) can cause gastroenterosis†(PH2). Plant is potentially allergenic (FAD). Extracts (Smartweed) — Extract LD50 = 464 mg/kg ipr mus (MPI). Contains 2000–3000 ppm silicic acid, 2000 ppm readily soluble (HH2). Alcoholic extract anti-implantation, IC60 = 200 mg/kg rat. The Herbal PDR lists polygodial, an antihyperalgesic, which I translate as a pain reducing compound. I myself have chewed it for toothache. Like so many other anesthetic toothache compounds (e.g., spilanthin), this one, too, is a fish intoxicant. Noting all the pesticidal activities, I’m not yet ready to give it a ++. Polygodial reportedly has activities also shared with the closely related phytochemical warburganal. These are both hot pungent compounds, and probably explain the name smartweed.
