Chacruna
Chacruna is a plant native to the Amazon rainforest, scientifically known as Psychotria viridis. It is well-known for its psychoactive properties due to the presence of dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a powerful hallucinogenic compound. Traditionally, Chacruna is used in indigenous rituals and is often combined with Ayahuasca, a brew that facilitates spiritual experiences.
The leaves of Chacruna are typically brewed into a tea or used in other preparations. In addition to its cultural significance, Chacruna has gained attention in modern contexts for its potential therapeutic effects, particularly in mental health treatment and personal growth.
