The flower of the Venus Fly Trap has many hairs; each hair oozes a viscous liquid, both attractive and sticky to small insects who get lured in by scent and then glued to the inside of the plant’s body. When the hairs are activated twice, the plant closes and traps its prey and begins to digest the insect with protein digesting enzymes.
How is the Venus Fly Trap Plant Used?
Venus Fly Trap discriminates between primitive, degenerate cells and healthy more complex cells and breaks down the primitive cells while at the same time enhancing the action of the important immune cells.
The whole plant is used medicinally. According to the Physician’s Desk Reference for Herbal Medicines, Juice from the pressed fresh plant stimulates the immune system and has antineoplastic and antispasmodic uses. The chief active ingredient is plumbagin, which some believe may help treat Hodgkin’s and non-Hodgkin lymphoma and solid tumors. This can also be taken by healthy beings looking to strengthen the immune system.
Research shows that plumbagin used in low doses are potent stimulators of:
- macrophage activity (large scavenger cells that can engulf and destroy bacteria and other foreign debris)
- anti-mutagenic (a compound acting on cells and tissues to decrease initiation of mutation)
- HDL elevation, the good cholesterol
- bacterial resistance to antibiotics
Because of these properties, people have been using Venus Fly Trap tincture to treat cancer and other illnesses for years. Using the Venus Fly Trap for health is certainly not new–even President Reagan sent for Germany to receive this precious liquid. He reportedly drank several drops of tea multiple times a day. Venus Fly Trap is a fascinating, unique, powerful, and gentle ingredient that we added to our Herbal Anti tincture along with Licorice and Yucca.

This article is very poorly written. The author is clearly not a native English-speaker, and doesn’t know the difference between flowers and leaves!
Thank you for your insight. All of our articles are written in-house. I believe that maybe the editing was an oversite. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I will fix it immediately. Take care
I give this wonderful supplement to my 22 year old cat, he’s still ticking! He was vaccinated, ate poor quality, dry chow and was an outside stray when I got him. Since then, he eats organic raw and gets micro-clustered, purified water in his bowl, and he hasn’t had a vaccine in many years, so he gets the best! He eats better than a lot of people do, and with the great stuff I buy from Vitality Science, he’s a happy fella.
I liked your article on venus fly trap. It explains it better than I have found elsewhere. I do wish the item had more testing on humans, but so goes the pharmacy industry for you. Thanks for the information.
