Dr. Strassman's studies investigated the effects of N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a powerful entheogen, or psychedelic, that he theorizes is produced by the human brain in the pineal gland. DMT is found naturally in various natural sources, and is closely related to human neurotransmitters such as serotonin and melatonin, which helped create the basis of this theory. During the project's five years, he administered approximately 400 doses of DMT to 60 human volunteers. This research took place at the University of New Mexico's School of Medicine in Albuquerque, New Mexico where he was tenured Associate Professor of Psychiatry. Dr. Strassman has conjectured that when a person is approaching death, the pineal gland releases DMT, accounting for much of the imagery reported by survivors of near-death experiences. He wrote about the research program in his book DMT: The Spirit Molecule, and a documentary movie based on this book is currently in production. Dr. Strassman has also conducted similar research using psilocybin, a psychedelic alkaloid found in hallucinogenic mushrooms.

  • @thehope830  me! lol.... :)

  • @sovereignsjust I can only speak from my own experience. I was led to psychedelics after a change in myself. I don't think these tools should be utilized to try to get somewhere. The change or if you call it the "breakthrough" happens before the psychedelics. If there is fear and anxiety something like DMT should definitely not be used. It's very possible you will never see anything you think of as your reality the same again. People should not use this to "trip balls" lol

  • @bigb47 Yes it is. Very much so.

  • For some reason in too scared to try to breakthrough. I'm afraid I'll be too anxious and get a bad trip.

  • @TheNeanderthaller Creation is the creator :) me ,you , this video , are all the creator

  • Is DMT illegal?

  • I would not be so scared people would become irrational in a crisis if they all had a psychadelic experience. That is all

  • @JesusGreenBL ....TRUTH !!!!

  • @blueberrymaster01 ya forget about it you need high grade chems and the plants that have the most DMT in it is way out of the country but its worth a try...if you really do it let me get in on that!

  • WE WILL BE FREE I WILL BE FREE TO GO AND GROW HEMP AND SMOKE WEED AND DO DMT....WHO IS WITH ME
