This episode Bastiaan Rosman drinks Mescaline made from the San Pedro cactus. After which he goes on an inner journey in the company of Nellie and a ceremony leader. USE: San Pedro can be used in different ways. Traditionally the pieces are cooked for a long time with some added herbs. When consuming the cactus in dried form it is important to chew slowly until the pieces turn into a fine pulp to prevent stomach problems. It is also possible to make tea out of the cactus: boil the pieces for two to three hours on a low heat and add fruit juice or honey. The taste can be really foul, so keep in mind that the person drinking it can simply not swallow the tea. Make sure not to eat anything six hours before use. DOSE: For a cactus with an average length of 15-20 cm and an average diameter of 3.5 cm one to one and a half cactus is enough for a light to average trip. Two to two and a half cactus will deliver a strong trip. The amount of active substance (mescaline) in the San Pedro cactus can vary enormously per cactus, so it is difficult to determine the right dosage. Therefor start with taking half of the prepared portion and wait an hour until the effects are known. Taking more can be useful: the trip can become stronger and you will have to wait longer for the effect. RISKS: - Nausea. - Coloured hallucinations. - Anxiety. - Confusion. - Suspiciousness. - Inability to distinguish reality from trip. - Psychosis.
