#Phytochemistry
There's so much to cover this week in perfumes, that next week's topic is the botany of cosmetics and skin care.

I hope my simplistic graphic is still correct and relevant. Phytochemistry is another awesome way to encourage K-12 students to go into natural product chemistry.

Poolside bartenders beware! Rutaceae are famous for their elaborate phytochemistry including coumarins, esp. furanocoumarins, which cause photodermatitis. Slicing limes in sunlight can lead to a nasty rash. Occupational hazard. #Citrus #Rutaceae 📷: Kathleen Conklin CC BY 2 🍊🍋

Imagine: Your slow heart arrhythmia becomes a fast heart arrhythmia and the only medicine you can find to fix it is estradiol. “Guess I gotta be trans.”

Then they find your right ovary.

Oh shit.

Now we redouble our efforts.

Oh shit.

There’s a uterus.

OH SHIT!

So you learn. And then share.
