🟩 With popularity comes problems. Over-harvesting has depleted wild arnica populations in many areas. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and other conservation groups publicised this issue, resulting in protective legislation in most of Europe.
🟩 Arnica montana is sometimes called leopard's bane or wolfsbane, although the latter name is more often applied to aconite, a European flowering herb with a poisonous root.
🟩 Arnica flowers mixed with safflower oil makes an anti-inflammatory massage oil that may ease the pain of sports injuries (though I strongly advice against trying to massage a sprain or a fracture. Brush the oil over the wounded area if you must, but DO NOT massage it).
