Would you apply secretion from a frog’s skin on your own skin if it improved your mental health?

In this episode of the Biohacking Superhuman Performance podcast, we're joined by Caitlin Thompson as she shares her personal transition to Kambo practitioner, revealing a profound chapter in her life where the battle with chronic illness steered her toward the unexpected healing powers of this traditional ritual. Her tale is one of resilience, bridging the gap between rigorous scientific analysis and the depths of spiritual practice.

Caitlin helps us to understand the nuances of a Kambo ceremony, from its rigorous participant screening to its diverse after-effects. With a neurobiologist's precision and a healer's intuition, she illustrates the importance of respecting the body's response to the frog secretion and the profound emotional release it can catalyze. Her insights into the symbiotic relationship between Kambo, ayahuasca, and other plant medicines reveal a broader, integrative approach to emotional healing and chronic conditions.

Finally, Caitlin sheds light on the exciting research surrounding Kambo's potential in mental health and chronic pain management. 

Caitlin’s background is in neurobiology, with emphasis in mood disorders and autoimmune conditions. In pursuit of her own health, Caitlin has studied nutritional neuroscience and helps people conquer their chronic health struggles, autoimmune and psychiatric conditions through diet, nutraceuticals and other healing modalities (such as Kambo).  Caitlin is also an independent scientific researcher and is currently conducting the first human kambo research in the field. Her past research has focused on psychedelic treatments for autoimmune conditions.
