Plants Are Great

Plants are great. They make some amazing things that we can extract. Like kava root. the extract contains kavalactones, which is a category of chemicals. There are around 15 of these chemicals that have been found to be psychoactive.

Having a kava drink gives you a feeling of mental clarity. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to kick in.

Isn't it amazing that a plant, that doesn't have a brain, can produce a molecule that can stimulate the brain?

And there's Kratom, which also has stimulant-like properties in humans. It is found in trees that grow in Southeast Asia, and although technically it was discovered in 1907 by D. Hooper, centuries earlier the people in that area used it.
