Professor Seagulls - Yopo Seeds 25g

Yopo

(Anadenanthera peregrina)

Anadenanthera peregrina, known as yopo, is a perennial tree native to the Caribbean and South America. The beans (seeds) of the plant have a history of use as entheogens for ritual and healing purposes for thousands of years.

Yopo seeds contain significant quantities of the tryptamines Bufotenin (5-HO DMT) alongside lesser amounts of 5-MeO-DMT (5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) and DMT (N,N-Dimethyltryptamine).

The ground seeds were snuffed, smoked or taken orally. Some used yopo along with Banisteriopsis caapi to increase and prolong the effects, creating an experience similar to that of ayahuasca. Banisteriopsis caapi was chewed while the yopo seeds were snuffed or smoked. Occasionally, Banisteriopsis caapi is found mixed in with the snuff.

* Not sold for human consumption. For ornamental, educational and research purposes only; Bufotenin and DMT, the primary compounds responsible for the hallucinogenic activity, are illegal in all 50 states.
