Description

Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is a naturally occurring psychedelic drug found in many plants and animals. It is a hallucinogenic substance that produces intense visual and auditory hallucinations, altered states of consciousness, and altered perceptions of time and space. It is also known as the “spirit molecule” due to its ability to induce spiritual experiences.

The toxic effects of DMT include increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, and agitation. It can also cause confusion, disorientation, and paranoia. In extreme cases, it can lead to seizures, coma, and even death.
