Very well written, developed and well researched article. I forwarded it to some sceptic friends of mine. Cool

Thanks for posting this!

Wow. Its about time people start seeing the medicinal value in spice on a scientific level. I don't even understand why it was illegal to begin with..

Ah, this is great. Smile

This needs to happen.

Responsible advocacy, so another medicine doesn't go down the drain, leaving potential thousands (millions) without something that could have made a change. Crying or very sad

In my country, the legal go-to psychoactive substance is ethanol. Sometimes my friends get wasted and tell the craziest stories about how they go out at night to harvest strange grasses in the light of the full moon. They claim to meet elves, white light and jaguars. These are their stories.

Probably risky for them to print such an article. Can only hope there will be more scientific research on the positive effects, because the cultural context brings it home easily for more people.

Really great article.

Especially this part I had no idea of: "I got notes from physicians and psychiatrists in the U.S. and Canada who have been using ayahuasca under the table in clinical practice and really support this work," says Rush. "I don't think I expected that."

In one way I find it good, but I would like to know how they advise the patients to use it? Does it happen with some shaman who guides them through it?
Last weekend I have had my first experience with ayahuasca and I must say the ceremony around it was so helpful. I hope this part won't be forgotten by our western society as I think it is vital.

This article is being syndicated to weekly papers across the country and they have cleaned up the title a bit. Thumbs up
