Psychedelics And The Autonomic Nervous System Mescaline And Psilocybin

Hello everybody. Welcome back to the Health Upgrade Podcast!For today’s episode we are going to shift gears from recreational drugs that have been used in addictive ways, to different types of drugs that are called psychedelics, hallucinogens and dissociative medications. These drugs are mind altering. They literally change your brain. They don't share generally the same addiction as recreational drugs. But that doesn't mean that they're not dangerous, and that they don't have significant social and personal risks associated with them. We're going to focus our attention primarily on two psychedelic medications which are mescaline and psilocybin. They effect within the brain and the autonomic nervous system, whether it's creating a pro-inflammatory or an anti-inflammatory effect. Disclaimer: we are not advocating the use of medication, but advocating the scientific study of these medications in helping those that are suffering. Because in a therapeutic sense, many of these medications can be utilized in a really, really positive way. So the more research the better, we can understand how they function and why they can have such a positive therapeutic benefit. Rate and review before the next episode.
