Exact source claims and related context are never blended together.
This hierarchy shows why a use appears beside the preparation. The strongest relationship comes first; contextual links remain explicitly labeled.
The preparation remains searchable as an archival method record without an invented indication.

This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: quality score below 70, primary taxon poison flag, not herbal remedy, not marked promotable, critical hazard archive only. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.

Primary wording. Visible interpretation. No borrowed certainty.
