Ayahuasca Herbs

Ayahuasca is a drink famous in the Amazon. Used by many tribes for visionary, healing, and cleansing ceremonies, it's traditionally prepared a number of different ways. It always includes yage (Caapi). [The Banesteriopsis Caapi plant contains MAOI's (mono amide oxidase inhibitors).] Some tribes consume the yage alone, as it is by itself a powerful entheogen with an energizing visionary experience. The powerful Ayahuasca preparation, depending on the tribe preparing it, can also be prepared with a number of admixtures, which may include one or more of the following plants; Psychotria viridis, Diplopterys Cabrerana, Mimosa hostilis root bark, and others not mentioned here. These plants are rich in tryptamines which are normally dormant, but in the presence of MAOI's these compounds become active. This is a powerful visionary and spiritual brew used for thousands of years by the Shamans in Peru, Brazil and other South American countries for healing and spiritual purposes. They believe that the Ayahuasca drink heals your spirit, soul, mind, and body. This is very similar to the way that Central/North American natives treat Peyote.
