		Xanthium is classified in modern Materia Medicas as either an herb for dispelling wind chill (along with angelica and magnolia flower, for example) or an herb for dispelling wind damp.
		While several chemical constituents of xanthium have been isolated, the active components of this herb in relation to its traditional applications have not been determined and there is little information about its pharmacology that might help evaluate the potential of xanthium to successfully treat various disorders.

	Cockleburs
		Cocklebur plants (Xanthium strumarium) produce hundreds of little football-shaped burs, about one inch (2.5 cm) long and covered with stiff, hooked spines.
		The founding colony does not have the genetic variability of the main population, and the frequency of certain traits may increase greatly by genetic drift compared with the much larger ancestral population.
		We are not sure whether this remarkable invention came from the cocklebur (Xanthium), burdock (Arctium), bur clover (Medicago hispida), teasel (Dipsacus sativus) or another species of "bur," but this amazing discovery is certainly pertinent to any discussion about hitchhiking plants.
