WHAT IS IBOGAINE?

 


The Bwiti religion uses different parts of T. iboga for certain healing and religious purposes. For example, as well as having hallucinogenic effects, the roots and root bark of the shrub can be effective in:

  • restoring good health
  • increasing sexual arousal or behavior
  • reducing fever

The leaves of T.iboga also act as an aphrodisiac. In addition, their anesthetic properties mean that they can numb pain.

Research suggests that in small doses, ibogaine usually acts as a mild stimulant. However, larger quantities can cause hallucinations and induce a profound psychedelic state. This state may significantly reduce symptoms of opioid withdrawal and block substance cravings.

In the 1980s, ibogaine became popular in Europe and the U.S. as a nonaddictive treatment option for drug dependency. Since then, some research indicates that ibogaine may also be useful for the treatment of neuropsychiatric conditions, alcohol use disorder, and depression.

HOW TO KNOW VAPING IS SAFE?

Is Vaping Safe? The short answer, it's the same as trusting the fruit you eat or the meat you cook is safe; you can hope and trust it is but at the end of the day, unless you grew and extracted your own cannabis, assembled and filled the vape yourself, or have your own testing lab, there's no sure way to know if what your are vaping is safe. With that being said, preliminary results are showing that legitimate, licensed cannabis brands are testing clean for harmful additives such as vitamin E, while black market "Street Carts" are predominantly the ones testing positive for these additives in large quantities.

Heath Benefits Of LSD(lysergic acid diethylamide)

A  growing number of people are taking LSD and other psychedelic drugs such as cannabis and ecstasy to help them cope with a variety of conditions including anorexia nervosa, cluster headaches and chronic anxiety attacks. The emergence of a community that passes the drugs between users on the basis of friendship, support and need – with money rarely involved – comes amid a resurgence of research into the possible therapeutic benefits of psychedelics. This is leading to a growing optimism among those using the drugs that soon they may be able to obtain medicines based on psychedelics from their doctor, rather than risk jail for taking illicit drugs. Among those in Britain already using the drugs and hoping for a change in the way they are viewed is Anna Jones (not her real name), a 35-year-old university lecturer, who takes LSD once or twice a year.
