Cannabinoids and Thermoregulation Fri, 04 Sep 2020 13:38:27 | Experimental Pharmacology One of the characteristic pharmacological properties of CB1 receptor agonists is an ability to induce hypothermia (Pertwee 1985). The changes of body temperature caused by cannabinoids are dose dependent. According to Pertwee, higher doses of THC cause hypothermia by lowering the thermoregulatory set point, while lower doses are hyperthermic. It has been postulated that differential Gs and Gi protein activation by CB1 receptors could explain these findings (Sulcova et al. 1998)....

Misdiagnosed Disorders Fri, 21 Aug 2020 13:26:41 | Marijuana Horticuture Many indoor garden problems, and to a lesser degree outdoor problems, are misdiagnosed as a lack of fertilizer. Often, disease and insects cause such problems. Other times, problems are caused by an imbalanced pH of the growing medium and water. A pH between 6.5 and 7 in soil and 5.8 to 6.5 in hydroponics will allow nutrients to be chemically available above or below this range, several nutrients become less available. For example, a full point movement in pH represents a tenfold increase in...

Serotonin and Schizophrenia Thu, 06 Aug 2020 07:08:56 | Ecstasy Support for the involvement of the serotonergic system in schizophrenia has been gathering in the literature since it was first observed almost forty years ago that lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) causes a syndrome evocative of schizophrenia in normal controls and that the structure of LSD shares similarities with serotonin (Gaddum and Hameed 1954). Although the dopamine hypothesis dominated the literature for the next three decades, further evidence to reassert serotonergic abnormalities in...

Techniques Qf Lsd Therapy Wed, 05 Aug 2020 22:43:32 | LSD Psychotherapy Although psychotherapy is a very important component of the approaches in this category, the primary emphasis is on the specificities of the drug experience. The psychotherapeutic techniques involved are modified and adjusted to the nature of the LSD state to form an integral and organic unit with the psychedelic process. The term psycholytic was coined by the British researcher and pioneer in LSD therapy, Ronald A. Sandison. Its root, lytic (from the Greek lysis dflsoliition) refers to the...

Pre Flower Identification Wed, 05 Aug 2020 18:02:09 | Edwards 2006 Preflowers, as opposed to full-blown flowers, generally appear after the fourth week of vegetative growth from seed. Check carefully above the fourth node. Please note that preflowers are very small and are difficult to differentiate without magnification. The female preflower is pear shaped and produces a pair of pistils. Frequently, the female preflowers do not show pistils until well after the preflowers have emerged. Thus, don't yank a plant because it has no pistils. Pistillate preflowers...

Penalties for Possession and Sale of MDMA in the United States Wed, 05 Aug 2020 10:50:23 | Ecstasy The average newspaper article about MDMA prior to 2001 frequently quoted up to fifteen years in prison or a 125,000 fine as the penalty for MDMA possession. This penalty has been cited repeatedly in articles about MDMA since its initial emergency scheduling in 1985. The penalties for MDMA possession or intent to distribute are complex. No mandatory minimum sentence exists for MDMA, as it does for some other drugs, such as crack cocaine. The maximum penalties are found in the statutes, but they...

Studies On The Production Sat, 01 Aug 2020 07:54:12 | LSD Manufacture That route has several drawbacks which make it impractical for clandestine synthesis. The first and most important problem is the availability of 2,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde. This substance is not exactly a linchpin of chemical commerce. So far as I know, it has one use making TMA-2. Those same folks who gave me the hassle over the purchase of Rochelle salts will certainly report a shipment of 2,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde, and the heat will not be far behind. Further chemical supply problems...

History of Peyote and Mescaline Use Ancient and Modern Thu, 30 Jul 2020 20:28:16 | Peyote and Mescaline ANCIENT HISTORY OF PEYOTE AND MESCALINE USE Only sparse details are known about the use of peyote and mescaline prior to the beginning of written history. Since peyote is grown mostly in what is now Mexico and the southwestern United States, it is believed that it was used primarily by local inhabitants of these regions for thousands of years before being introduced to people who lived elsewhere. Archaeological evidence suggests that the peyote cactus has been around for at least 10,000 years....

Psilocybe Cyanescens Potent Mushrooms Growing On Wood Debris Wed, 15 Jul 2020 23:15:44 | Magic Mushrooms At least one other Psilocybe species in addition to Psilocybe semilanceata is known to exist in Europe. At this point, I must emphasize that the differentiation of single species within the Psilocybe genus is subject to considerable controversy among eminent taxonomists. For example, there are different methods of distinguishing the Hypholoma genus from the Stropharia genus. While Psilocybe semilanceata is a species that has long been clearly defined and is well known by this name, there are,...

Biker Gangs Mexican Drug Cartels And Supply And Demand Sat, 11 Jul 2020 23:43:15 | Methamphetamine In 1970, the federal government passed the Controlled Substances Act. This measure outlawed the use of injectable methamphetamine and sought to stem the use and abuse of meth by cutting off its supply. However, the market for meth did not disappear, and, as is the case with most drugs of abuse once they are made illegal, the supply was simply driven underground. (This is similar to what happened during Prohibition in the 1920s and early 1930s when the government outlawed the sale and...

Old World Hallucinogens Wed, 08 Jul 2020 08:37:29 | Hallucinogenic Plants Existing evidence indicates that man in the Old World Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia has made less use of native plants and shrubs for their hallucinogenic properties than has man in the New World. There is little reason to believe that the vegetation of one half of the globe is poorer or richer in species with hallucinogenic properties than the other half. Why, then, should there be such disparity Has man in the Old World simply not discovered many of the native hallucinogenic plants Are...

Usage In South East Asia And The South Pacific Islands Mon, 06 Jul 2020 01:28:56 | Magic Mushrooms Since the late 1960s, the custom of using psilocybin-containing mushrooms has been evolving in various countries across Asia and the Pacific Islands. However, there is no conclusive evidence indicating that mushroom usage was endemic among native cultures prior to the discovery of the Mexican species. Most likely, global tourism has been the most significant factor behind increasing knowledge about relevant mushroom species among the populations of these countries, especially after searches for...

Amphetaminetype stimulants market Mon, 06 Jul 2020 00:34:08 | Drug Report In 2007, UNODC estimates that between 230 and 640mt of amphetamines-group1 stimulants were manufactured. Ecstasy-group2 production was between 72 and 137 mt. As amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) can be produced virtually anywhere at relatively low cost, the locations of production are changing rapidly. Moreover, organized criminal groups are increasing the size and sophistication of manufacturing operations. A record level of nearly 52 mt of ATS was seized worldwide in 2007. The...

The Meth High Dopamine Fri, 03 Jul 2020 20:38:56 | Methamphetamine Methamphetamine's powerful effects come from its impact on the brain's reward, or pleasure, center. Meth does not directly release dopamine. It attaches itself to dopamine receptor sites and fools neurons into releasing large quantities of dopamine. This accounts for the intense rush a user experiences from meth.7, 11 In addition, meth prevents dopamine from being recycled. Instead, dopamine is active in the body for much longer, explaining the extra long duration of the meth high. The drug...

Ephedrine And Pseudoephedrine Thu, 02 Jul 2020 10:21:41 | Methamphetamine The chemicals ephedrine and pseudoephedrine are like cousins to each other. They share the same molecular formula but are structurally different. However, the structural differences between ephedrine and pseudoephedrine do not affect meth production since they are mirror images of each other. They can be used interchangeably as precursors in meth recipes. Precursors are substances that, in nature, might be inactive, but when combined with another chemical, create a new product. Methamphetamine...

Ecstasy Induced Hyponatremia Wed, 01 Jul 2020 08:47:38 | Ecstasy Another problem seen in Ecstasy users is acute hyponatremia, a low plasma sodium level due to dilution of the blood with water.

The Chemical Structure Of Mescaline Sun, 28 Jun 2020 00:05:50 | Peyote and Mescaline Mescaline is the key hallucinogenic substance found in peyote and several other psychedelic plants, including the Trichocereus family of cacti. Mescaline belongs to a class of chemicals called phenethy-lamines. Ecstasy (MDMA) is another drug that belongs to this class. The chemical name of mescaline is 3,4,5-trimethoxy-beta-phenethylamine, and its chemical structure resembles that of other illegal drugs such as amphetamine as well as the brain's own neuro-transmitters epinephrine (adrenaline)...

Teenage Trends and Attitudes Sun, 28 Jun 2020 00:05:50 | Hallucinogens Adolescent trends in drug use have been tracked for over 25 years. Researchers use this wealth of data to predict future drug trends and their possible implications for adolescent health and society at large. Patterns of drug use tend to be inversely related to perceived health risks. For example, in recent years, as knowledge of the health risks from cigarette smoking has increased, the number of teens who smoke has declined. This inverse relationship, however, has not been evident in LSD and...

Factors Affecting Nasal Absorption Sat, 27 Jun 2020 02:43:05 | Drug Formulation Design A combination of the structure and function of the nasal mucosa as a barrier to absorption, the properties of the active drug and the formulation within which it is contained will affect the extent to which a compound is absorbed nasally. The following factors are commonly reported as significantly influencing the extent of nasal absorption. Generally, drugs which are in solution will be rapidly absorbed nasally (31), although it appears that hydrophilic compounds are not readily absorbed above...

LSD and Parkinsons Disease Fri, 26 Jun 2020 15:26:18 | Hallucinogens and Culture In a very real sense the circle is also closing with respect to Hofmann's hope, expressed at the time of his epoch-making discovery of LSD, that because of its ability to mimic certain mental illnesses the drug might prove useful in their treatment. In fact, LSD has been employed to that end over the years by some psychiatrists, often with beneficial results. However, the potency of LSD and the severe legal limitations imposed in recent years on its use even under controlled scientific...
