Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in various plants and animals, but it is not typically found in significant amounts in conventional foods. Some plants known to contain DMT include:
- Mimosa hostilis - The root bark of this plant contains a notable amount of DMT.
- Psychotria viridis - Commonly used in the preparation of ayahuasca, this plant also contains DMT.
- Acacia species - Some species of Acacia trees contain DMT in their bark and leaves.
It's important to note that while these plants contain DMT, they are not considered typical food items, and the consumption of substances containing DMT can be illegal in many places. Additionally, DMT is not active when ingested alone due to its metabolization in the stomach unless taken with a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) as in traditional ayahuasca preparations. Always approach such substances with caution and ensure to understand the legal and health implications.
