is camphor edible - #24011
I am dealing with some pretty strange symptoms lately — like, I've been feeling off, you know? My stomach's been upset, and I just can't shake this weird feeling. It started after I tried some home remedies, and I might’ve gone a bit overboard with camphor! I read that camphor has a lot of benefits, but I’m questioning myself — is camphor edible? I mean, I thought it was safe for external use, but did I actually mess something up by ingesting small amounts? I used it in a tea, thinking it would help with my digestion or something, but now I’m worried I did something stupid. Like, am I in any real danger? Are there risks I should know about? The last thing I want is to mess up my health trying to feel better! I’ve heard people mention camphor oil, too, but I wonder if that’s different than the solid stuff. Hopefully, it’s just a tummy bug or something chill, but if anyone knows about camphor and what to do if I've eaten it, please let me know. Thanks a ton!
