Salvia Divinorum: Science and Psychedelic Effects
Provides an overview of Salvia divinorum, a rare Mexican perennial herb known for containing salvinorin A, the most powerful naturally occurring hallucinogen. It explains that Salvia reproduces mainly through vegetative propagation and has a very limited natural range, unlike related herbs such as sage or rosemary, which are non-psychoactive. The discussion covers its traditional use by the Mazatec people in spiritual and healing ceremonies, contrasting these practices with modern recreational use, such as smoking the leaves. It also highlights the unique pharmacology of salvinorin A, which acts on opioid receptors rather than serotonin pathways, setting it apart from most other psychedelics.
