Purchase chacruna

Psychotria viridis is also called Purchase chacruna or chacrona, from the Quechuan verb of “to mix”. This name most likely alludes to the traditional use of psychotria viridis. Psychotria viridis is one of the ingredients used to create ayahuasca. The tradition stems from Amazonia, where shamans of various tribes mixed chacruna and Banisteriopsis caapi to create a brew which induced spiritual visions. Psychotria viridis belongs to the Rubiaceace family. It is a perennial shrub that grows to the height of 5 meters. Leaves of the plant are about 5-15 centimetres long; this is the part that contains the psychoactive compounds. The main active compound in Psychotria viridis is DMT (dimethyltryptamine). DMT may be smoked by itself, but psychedelic effects of pure DMT are very mild. Psychotria viridis is in itself not active orally. DMT is a serotonergic psychedelic, which means it achieves its effects by acting as strong partial agonists at the 5-HT2A receptors, elevating serotonin levels. DMT is usually consumed in combination with a MAO inhibitor. The most commonly – and traditionally – used substance is Banisteriopsis caapi. Ayahuasca is still one of the most commonly used herbal concoctions used to induce psychedelic effects. Ayahuasca has several physical, cognitive and visual effects. For most users, taking ayahuasca is a spiritual experience. Hallucinations range from colourful geometric patterns to alien lifeforms. One of the after effects of ayahuasca is an increased sense of mindfulness. This is thought to be the result of a purging of body and soul. Unfortunately, the purging of the body includes extensive vomiting and diarrhea.
