Manage episode 441705127 series 3493690
The Chemical Collective discusses DMT, a powerful psychoactive compound found in various plants and animals, including humans. DMT is traditionally used in Ayahuasca brews by indigenous Amazonian tribes for spiritual and healing rituals. It was first synthesized in 1931 and gained popularity in the 1960s and 70s. DMT's effects are rapid and intense, lasting about 30 minutes, and are attributed to its interaction with serotonergic receptors. It can be smoked, vaporized, or consumed in traditional brews. DMT's therapeutic potential includes treating depression, anxiety, and addiction, though its intense effects require careful use and supportive settings.
