Nightshade
Nightshade
The Solanaceae, or nightshades, are an economically important family of flowering plants. The family ranges from annual and perennial herbs to vines, lianas, epiphytes, shrubs, and trees, and includes a number of important agricultural crops, medicinal plants, spices, weeds, and ornamentals. Many members of the family contain potent alkaloids, and some are highly toxic, but many cultures eat nightshades, in some cases as staple foods. The family belongs to the order Solanales, in the asterid group dicotyledons (Magnoliopsida).[2] The Solanaceae consists of about 98 genera and some 2,700 species,[3] with a great diversity of habitats, morphology and ecology.
The name Solanaceae derives from the genus Solanum, "the nightshade plant". The etymology of the Latin word is unclear. The name may come from a perceived resemblance of certain solanaceous flowers to the sun and its rays. At least one species of Solanum is known as the "sunberry". Alternatively, the name could originate from the Latin verb solari, meaning "to soothe", presumably referring to the soothing pharmacological properties of some of the psychoactive species of the family.
The family has a worldwide distribution, being present on all continents except Antarctica. The greatest diversity in species is found in South America and Central America.

Info
Nightshade
This family of flowers holds a special place in healing since it is the family that provides many vegetable foods such as potato and tomato. These foods are responsible for enabling the body to ward off bacteria attack due to their anti-oxidant properties. They nourish the body and enable the production of a vital co- enzyme. Ubiquinone, also referred to as Co enzyme Q10, is essential for the transport of oxygen. Depletion of this vital enzyme can lead to bacterial conditions and cancer.
The first structural area of the body to manifest bacterial decay is the teeth. This formula is particularly valuable for little children who are teething. They may change from happy serenity to hot cross babies who have tantrums and feel hysterical.
Trauma: Changing from calm serenity to becoming hot cross, angry and hysterical, oppressed by angry thoughts about a situation or another person which are difficult to put into perspective.
