ANGELICAS USED BY MANY COASTAL AND INLAND TRIBES IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. IT IS CARRIED BY MEDICINE MEN AND WOMEN TO MAKE A TEA USED FOR CLEANSING THE BLOOD. IT IS KEPT IN ALL VILLAGES TO WARD OFF SNAKE BITES. IT IS A MEDICAL AND SPIRITUAL FOOD USED BY SHAMANS TO HEAL THE SICK OF VARIOUS DISEASES.
IT IS PART OF THE CARROT FAMILY AND HAS COMPOUND UMBELS. IT REACHES UP TO 9 FEET TALL - I HAVE FOUND IT MOSTLY ALONG THE COAST. PEOPLE CHEW IT THREE TIMES A DAY TO KEEP THEIR BLOOD PURIFIED. I HAVE TASTED IT ONCE AND IT WAS VERY BITTER.
