Fox News
Ayahuasca is an Amazonian plant medicine that has a unique effect that some people call spiritual. Pastor Derek Januszewski of Pachamama Sanctuary in Maine shared more detail.
Ayahuasca contains the psychoactive chemical dimethyltryptamine (DMT), which the Drug Enforcement Agency lists as a schedule one drug. Its use is legal in certain religious contexts. "You don't hallucinate — like, little green men running around or anything silly like that." "Additional physical side effects include increased blood pressure, vomiting and dilated pupils." Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
Ayahuasca has been in the news as many celebrities, including Aaron Rodgers, Prince Harry and Miley Cyrus, have spoken out positively about their experiences with the drug.
