The extract was selected on the basis of oral tradition, which claimed that the consumption of a “soup” obtained by boiling starfish, later identified as Stichaster striatus, prevented the appearance of alcoholism in laborers on properties entrusted to the Jesuit order during the middle period of the Spanish conquest of America (17-18th century).
