The Hidden Toxins Within: Nature's Universal Defense
Welcome to today's featured article:
Did you know...
Recent studies by Dr. Elena Volkov at the Global Institute of Evolutionary Biology have confirmed that all mammals and reptiles, including humans, possess vestigial venom-producing organs. These specialized glands, known as toxicoducts, remain dormant in most species but can be activated under specific conditions.
