Study Indicates the Magic Mushroom Compound Baeocystin is Not Psychedelic
Baeocystin does not cause the head twitch in mice, but its metabolite norpsilocin is more potent than psilocin.
Is Ibogaine a Psychedelic Drug?
Yes, based on its effects. But it doesn’t work via the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor like other psychedelics.
Scientists Synthesize and Test the Magic Mushroom Compounds Baeocystin, Norbaeocystin, Norpsilocin, and Aeruginascin
This work is a giant step forward for psychedelic research.
Psychedelics May Aid in Deprogramming Addiction
Recent evidence suggests psychedelics may significantly improve addiction treatment outcomes.
The Structure and Function of the Serotonin 5-HT1A Receptor
Activation of neuronal 5-HT1A receptors causes hyperpolarization and inhibition of cellular signaling.
The Structure-Activity Relationship of Two Kratom Compounds
Even slightly modifying the chemical structure of the compounds in kratom can significantly alter their effects.
Is Kratom a Psychedelic Drug?
Technically the answer is no, but subjective experiences may vary.
The Structure and Function of the Serotonin 5-HT2A Receptor
The 5-HT2A receptor is central to the effects of many psychedelics, but it may not be the only receptor involved.
What is Kratom?
It is a plant that contains over 40 alkaloid and non-alkaloid compounds, some of which have analgesic and psychoactive properties.
