One of the first investigations about Salvia Divinorum were done in the year of 1962 by Albert Hofmann, he was one of the discoverers of the efects of LSD, and Gordon Wasson, an expert on ethnomycology. They conducted an expedition to the rural areas of Oaxaca, Mexico.Salvia Divinorum is a specimen of the Mint family used by Mazatec shamans to foretell the future and some healings. It's name means "Sage of the Diviners" or " the Divine Sage. The Mazatec know it as Maria Pastora (Virgin Shepherdess)
The active ingredient that provides all the hallucinogen properties to this herb is called Salvinorin A, composed of oxygen, hydrogen and carbon. To feel the effects it's only needed 300 micrograms (300 millionts of a gram) Even so, this plant must not be compared to any drug natural or artificial.
It's effects can be felt right after inhaled. Lasting in maximum around ten minutes and going down after 30 mins.
There are several kinds of experiences you can have from salvia extracts, metaporhosing, seeing geometrical figures, recalling things of the past, out-of-body experiences, etc. The similarity on all those hallucinations is, according to users, mind-blowing as nothing else.
If you have any comment, thanks.
