Is belladonna good to use for upset stomachs???


Answer:
Of the uses of Belladonna, I had not heard of it being put to upset stomachs.
Well, I looked up Mrs. Grieve's book and can't really find that use there (written at the turn of the century, it is still a very detailed reference work), but that is not to say that more modern advances have not found a new use.

Here is a link to the description of belladonna- which indeed comes from "deadly nightshade," and is a poison if used to that purpose (as all medicine can be used, if used improperly): http://botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/n/ni...

You might try google scholar for recent finds.
