Nepenthesis
Formerly known as Pineapple
It has had to cross somebody else's mind too... What would happen if you drank digestive juices of nepenthes or sarracenia or cephalotus or heliomorpha? Would your insides be digested, leading to internal bleeding, then death? What would happen?
On Science Daily I read an article about how Nepenthes digestive fluid can be used in medicines. In the article it explained how the natural fungicides/anti-bacterial stuff in the mucus of Nepenthes would be great for naturally fighting off bacterial infections. It also mentioned how natives to India have been drinking it as a general elixir to prevent bacterial infections, since a lot of India is a warm, humid jungle, perfect for bacterial infections to occur.
So what would happen? Does it taste good? Probably the stupidest idea and questions that could be posted on this board, but I'm rather curious...
