    Since a rifle or shotgun is needed to harvest tree top high, parasitic mistletoe the alternative meds bill would be even higher! For a representative pic it must have been no effort to pick a holly bushes branch with red berries. Sounds promising like a proper alkaline Ph level.

    hummm this is the second time that have the same article about this plant. I know they use it in Germany to treat Cancer, still I don’t think is the same plant we know here or the make the extract removing the toxicity. It will be nice to know more about it before people start getting poisoned and die.

      Iscador is one of the makes/brands you can buy. Mistletoe therapy can be given in a variety of ways:
      injection under the skin (subcutaneous)
      infusion through a drip (intravenous)
      injection into the tumour (intratumour)
      orally (by mouth). The berries from the tree are toxic however

  3. Mistletoe has small white berries and small round or oval leaves about the size of a dime, found as a parasite in tops of oak trees. The picture shown looks to be holly with its waxy, shiny, thorny leaves and red berries.
