Tanulmányom a tanító (pszichoaktív) növények és a szakértők (pszichológusok) konfliktusának kibontásán keresztül a tudás, közvetítés különböző módozatainak ideológiai beágyazottságával, ezen keresztül világnézetek és különféle tudások konfliktusával foglalkozik, különösen a szubjektív, vizionárius tapasztalatra fókuszálva. A növények értelemszerűen nem ‘szakértőként’, tényeket és adatokat...

Case report: A 57-year-old woman was referred to our service after noticing difficulty in coordinating the movements of the right hand. The symptoms occurred after she consumed ayahuasca in a religious ceremony and persisted after the psychedelic effects weaned off. On the first evaluation, she had right hemiataxia and increased blood pressure (200/100 mmHg). The head computed tomography (CT)...

Classic psychedelics, such as LSD, psilocybin, and the DMT-containing beverage ayahuasca, show some potential to treat depression, anxiety, and addiction. Importantly, clinical improvements can last for months or years after treatment. It has been theorized that these long-term improvements arise because psychedelics rapidly and lastingly stimulate neuroplasticity. The focus of this review is...

Most illicit drug casework samples at the Israel Police National Drug Laboratory are found to be mixtures of substances. Some are a mixture of an illicit drug with fillers, and others may contain more than one illicit drug. This study was triggered by a routine gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of an unusual casework sample. The sample chromatogram showed a mixture of two...

Background: Past research reports a positive relationship between experience with classic serotonergic psychedelics and nature relatedness (NR). However, these studies typically do not distinguish between different psychedelic compounds, which have a unique psychopharmacology and may be used in specific contexts and with different intentions. Likewise, it is not clear whether these findings can...

Background: Classic serotonergic psychedelics have anecdotally been reported to show a characteristic pattern of subacute effects that persist after the acute effects of the substance have subsided. These transient effects, sometimes labeled as the ‘psychedelic afterglow’, have been suggested to be associated with enhanced effectiveness of psychotherapeutic interventions in the subacute period....

Since the dawn of civilization, ancient cultures have utilized hallucinogens from plants and fungi in the context of religious and healing practices. Recently, their use has expanded to other cultures. Hallucinogens are natural or synthetic substances that alter the perception of reality at nontoxic doses, producing intense psychological and physiological effects. The initial research on...

This study is an interdisciplinary research into Uruguayan ayahuasca users belonging to one neo-shamanic and one Santo Daime group. The study involved the chemical analysis of ayahuasca samples, an ethnographic description of the two traditions and rituals, and the application of psychometric scales to measure personality differences, and the acute psychological effects during an ayahuasca...

The therapeutic use of the substance psilocin produced by the fungi from the genus named Psilocybe has been an interesting but also controversial topic of discussion among researchers since the 1950s until now. These fungi can synthesize several alkaloids such as psilocybin, which has hallucinogenic properties, but also muscarine, which is a toxic substance that stimulates that part of the...

FigureFigureThe National Park Service released a warning recently urging visitors not to lick the Sonoran Desert toad (Bufonidae alvarius), also known as the Colorado River toad. (NPS Facebook.
