"This Batrachotoxin, this most toxic poison, which come from the skins of tiny frogs, and the deadliest of all is Batrachotoxin .Native Indians in Western Colombia collect these frogs, golden Phyllobates, terribilis and multicoloured Phyllobates bicolor and sweat out the poison over a fire before putting it on their darts. The LD50 is around 2 micrograms per kg, meaning that an amount the size of two grains of table salt will kill you. Batrachotoxin kills by interfering with sodium ion channels in the cells of muscles and nerves, jamming them open so that they do not close. The continued migration of Na+ ions results ultimately in heart failure" Dr. Usman
