What are they, and how do they affect tortoises when part of a varied diet, such as those contained in chicory?

Have you googled this ? When I do, it is as though these two are actually separate things ( potassium and glycosides) and eventually lead to cardiac issues....certainly I know this is in NO way any answer, but a question>>>> :p

It's the healthiest foods that torts can eat, and if we would eat like torts, perhaps we wouldn't be so sick. That's what those are:p
