Printed in the 1850 edition’s “A List of the Principal Diseases” as “—— (ulcers of)” under “Lungs” (the dash stands for the heading above it, or its first word); shown here as “Lungs — (ulcers of)”.

Modern literature has not yet been searched for this heading’s claims: it comes only from the 1850 index and has no search words yet.

Old claims, quoted verbatim: not medical advice. A warning sits above the claims and never hides them; no warning does not mean safe, only that no source here has flagged the plant.

2 claims: 2 with a sentence, 0 from the index alone
