With all the pro-drug stuff we've been doing and planning on doing
|
||
|
lately, I thought it would be nice to share some of the knowledge about
|
||
|
getting high I have gathered from various books and sources...
|
||
|
The information for this file was taken from
|
||
|
|
||
|
"The Magical & Ritual Use of Herbs"
|
||
|
Richard Alan Miller
|
||
|
Destiny Books
|
||
|
|
||
|
That book and my interests are geared towards something a bit more, ah,
|
||
|
"spiritual" or "magickal", than getting high for the sake of getting high,
|
||
|
but I expect most people who read this would rather just get fucked up.
|
||
|
Soooo, I am leaving out quite a bit of material that relates to historical,
|
||
|
religious, and magickal uses of the various "herbs".
|
||
|
Have fun.

This time, we're going to look at two natural narcotics, Wild Lettuce and
|
||
|
Wormwood. I chose these two because they are probably the easiest things to
|
||
|
get in the US as they grow wild almost everywhere (and the DEA isn't
|
||
|
chopping them down!)
|
||
|
|
||

|
WILD LETTUCE
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Family : Compositae (Sunflower family)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Botanical Name : Lactuca virosa
|
||
|
|
||
|
Synonyms : lettuce opium, lopium
|
||
|
|
||
|
Geographical Locations : Southern and Central Europe and the United States
|
||
|
|
||
|
Habitat : Loose, rich, well-drained fields. Should be
|
||
|
planted in late fall. Needs moisture.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Botanical Description : The herb is a biennial plant with a leafy, round
|
||
|
stem that grows from two to seven feet high. The stem is erect and smooth,
|
||
|
colored pale green and sometimes spotted with purple. The lower leaves are
|
||
|
numerous and large, growing to be eighteen inches long. The upper stem
|
||
|
leaves are small, scanty and grow alternately, clasping the stem with two
|
||
|
small lobes. The heads are short stalked with numerous pale yellow flowers.
|
||
|
The fruit is a rough black oval with a broad wing along the edge that
|
||
|
narrows to a long white beak holding silvery tufts of hair.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chemistry
|
||
|
|
||
|
Active ingredient now identified as lactucarine (now known as lettuce
|
||
|
opium. This contains 2% lactucin (similar structure to that of opium) plus
|
||
|
lactucerol (also known as taraxasterol)) and lactucic acid. These
|
||
|
ingredients appear in domestic lettuce as well, but less than one order of
|
||
|
magnitude to wild lettuce.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Primary Effects
|
||
|
|
||
|
Mild narcotic and analgesic. Sedative which induces low alphoid activity
|
||
|
rather than deep sleep. [BA-your brain is at the level where dreams occur,
|
||
|
but you are awake] Most dreams occur in REM sleep, a state which is
|
||
|
characterized by low alphoid activity.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Preparation
|
||
|
|
||
|
The easiest [and suggested] method is to dry the leaves and roots and
|
||
|
smoke them in a large pipe. The general, commercial, technique is to heat
|
||
|
(not boil) the leaf in water for at least an 8 hour period. Then remove the
|
||
|
liquid. Lactucarine goes into solution with water. A heat lamp is placed
|
||
|
over the bowl of liquid and a fan is used to drive the water out of the
|
||
|
extraction. The result will be a blackish gum which can be smoked best with
|
||
|
a waterpipe and hot torch. The gum should be rolled in small balls and
|
||
|
sealed in plastic to prevent them from drying out. The hotter the flame,
|
||
|
the better the high.
|
||
|
A general amount for each person is approximately one ounce of wild
|
||
|
lettuce or about 1/2 - 1 grams of the extract.
|
||
|
|
||
|
** Do not ingest any form of lettuce if you suffer from stomach **
|
||
|
** disorders (esp. ulcers) because the lettuce opium substance will **
|
||
|
** coat the walls of the stomach and reduce digestive processes **
|
||
|
|
||
|
***** Horny Young Men beware! This herb represses sex drives!!! *****
|
||
|
|
||
|
I have used a Wild Lettuce and Valerian Root extract on occasion. A
|
||
|
company called "Nature's Way" sells the extract, and almost any health food
|
||
|
store should be able to get it. (I also believe General Nutrition Center
|
||
|
can get it) It has a very relaxing effect, both mentally and physically.

WORMWOOD
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Family : Compositae (Sunflower or Aster family)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Botanical Name : Artemisia absinthium
|
||
|
|
||
|
Synonyms : Absinth, green ginger
|
||
|
|
||
|
Geographical Locations : All over the world, from the US to Siberia.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Habitat : Roadsides, waste places and near the sea
|
||
|
|
||
|
Botanical Description : The herb is a silky perennial plant supported by a
|
||
|
woody rootstock producing many bushy stems that grow two to four feet in
|
||
|
height. The stems are whitish covered closely with fine silk hairs. The
|
||
|
leaves are hairy also, shaped with many blunt lobs of irregular symmetry.
|
||
|
The flowers are small with globular heads of greenish-yellow color that are
|
||
|
arranged on an erect leafy flower stem. The leaves and the flowers have a
|
||
|
very bitter taste and characteristic odor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chemistry
|
||
|
|
||
|
Absinthine (a dimeric guaranolide) is the principle agent, anabsinthin
|
||
|
and thiyone (a volatile oil) are also present. Absinthine is listed as a
|
||
|
narcotic analgesic in the same group as codeine and dextromethorphan
|
||
|
hydrobromide (Romilar).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Primary Effects
|
||
|
|
||
|
Narcotic-analgesic. It depresses the central medullary part of the
|
||
|
brain, the area concerned with pain and anxiety.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Preparation
|
||
|
|
||
|
The herb is either smoked or prepared as a liquor. The absinthine can be
|
||
|
extracted with alcohol and water.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The liquor can be made by taking one ounce of wormwood (preferably the
|
||
|
flowers) and putting them into a pint of brandy and letting it stand for six
|
||
|
weeks. The resultant tincture is then combined with Pernod or anisette to
|
||
|
make the classical absinthe.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Ingestion of the above volatile oils as a tincture can cause convulsions *
|
||
|
* and gastro-intestinal disturbances due to the thiyone. *
