Exploring the Complicated History of Peyote | HAMILTON'S PHARMACOPEIA

I totally disagree with Dr Terry that peyote produces mescaline to disinterest animals from eating it. Other cactus plants have mescaline and some of those have very big spines. we don't know what the role of mescaline is in cactus physiology. squirrels will eat some extremely bitter nuts. bitterness isn't enough to disinterest critters.

I hate when scientists call magnificent discoveries complete accidents... Nothing in this life is accidental and scientists hate it.

Looks like a frog

Much love growing San Pedro and penis cactus in Iowa

Much like marijuana. Some people fear the unknown out of ignorance

But why did the cacti that contain mescaline come about using that phenethylamine structure in biosynthesis? Natures so crazy.

Total accident my ass

When a plant needs to be locked up in a cage, you KNOW it’s a hell of a drug 😵‍💫

Dea 3 lock rule... another example as rogue Federal agencies that need to go.
Add; IRS, FDA, FBI, CDC, DOJ

Indigenous chaps are deserving of this 🌈🆓️

Government says I gotta put these cacti in a cage 🤡🌍

Mescaline and me a learning story of how to become healed so you know what you wish to grow. When the plants touch your soul you are compelled to action. You are compelled to witness them in a way that makes them on high. This is beautiful. This is next to god

You do know that Texas was Mexico.. right???

Why tf is this so short

... Dear God, please help us be able to use this safe and healing creation of yours.

The reason they continue to restrict it so heavily is to sell people Anti psychotics for the rest of their life that causes even more health issues and drives more synthetic medicine sales. The government knows it works and it works well.

I’m native descent and my exact birthday is November 16th 1993. I feel honored that was the day they let natives use peyote legally for their spiritual practices

Very very handy drug. None addictive, not possible to overdose and safe as. Most peaceful aswell.

Like the good version of heroin

😍🇺🇸🖤🌵🌵🌵

I let my dad borrow my Psychedelic Encyclopedia and when he returned it he told me that Peyote was a really good one! He used to buy 50 pound bags of buttons from Texas in the 1950s before it was illegal. He was also playing jazz bass in New York City and shooting heroin. It's obvious there is a big difference between shooting heroin and eating Peyote.

Trichs n lophs 4 life baby

Any people should be able to worship the way their people always do

I need that shamans book

Thank goodness the Christian church busy bodies itself with pushing their beliefs upon others while simultaneously destroying others beliefs that they don’t personally like!! Cue the ballyhooing and whining about people being against Christians!! 🙄

I live in southwest Texas. That's all over the place. Nobody really wants it down here. It makes you sick. But you do hallucinate your ass off. Just makes you sick with the squirts. Idk. Mushrooms seem better to me

I know that I'm late to this party by 4yrs...but... I'm still entitled to an opinion so here it is. For every single person that uses the word "Race" to seperate and label one another are simply ill informed or just straight up "RASCISTS" There's only 1 race. The human race. Point #2 Native lands are shrinking by the day. Just as Palestinian lands are, due to the American Made Isreal. It's an act of Treason and War. Every tribe is a sovereign nation within this nation. yet you cannot find them on a normal map. The same goes for Palestine on most global maps. Just some food for thought.

The church demonizing psychedelics because people comune with God with no intermidaries...

The church talk to the the priest the priest will talk to the virgin that will talk to Jesus to talk to God for you....

Too many middle men.

Hair over 5 inches means that he can't read a caliper.

This is fascinating. I love the cultural practices that go beyond 600 years.🐸🍺🔪🔥

I’d like to eat that big one over a 3 day weekend 😂

NO plant should be illegal.

I've had San Pedro. Amazing.

I believe in God, Jesus died for our sins; that is what I believe. Is it a sin to take peyote if u want to get closer to God?

In Mexico is been used for centuries. The Aztecs used it to do "surgeries"

I have a strong stomach and tolerance Psilocybin and LSD and Salvia extract…. Did my fair share…. But the alkaloids in peyote(mescaline) would always make me puke… a good puke … not a bad puke if that makes any sense ……made me feel like my heart was beating 10000 times the average rate….

Crazy how the American government laws are to protect the people and conserve the state. But a plant is outlawed. Vote small government

Before us after us for internity no matter apostolic god and the and the devil and Jesus Christ name amen

Clickbait you sick bastards

Is this a bad time to ask what is the cheapest company with car insurance?

I really want to add some williamsii to my cactus planters. I know Williamsii's entire genus is psychoactive but are they all heavily controlled?

Wow white people being allowed to grow native plants but natives can't...

Can Hamilton do Etizolam? wtf is up with this drug being legal in other countries and less addictive than benzo's but now "dangerous" when studies show it's not.

Alpine TX my birthplace

RIP Hamilton

Killer cacti
