DMT a psychedelic tryptamine similar in chemical structure to the neurotransmitter serotonin. DMT is created in small amounts by the human body during normal metabolism (sleep) by the enzyme typtamine-N-methyltransferase. DMT occurs naturally in many species of plants often in conjunction with its close chemical relatives 5-MeO-DMT and bufotenin (5-OH-DMT). It is usually one of the main active constituents of the drink ayahuasca, however ayahuasca is sometimes brewed without plants that produce DMT. DMT occurs as the primary active alkaloid in several plants including such plants as Mimosa hostilis, Diplopterys cabrerana, and Psychotria viridis. DMT is found as a minor alkaloid in snuff made from Virola bark resin in which 5-MeO-DMT is the main active alkaloid. DMT is also found as a minor alkaloid in the beans of Anadenanther peregrina and Anadenanthera colubrina used to make Yopo and Vilca snuff in which bufotenin is the main active alkaloid.
DMT is generally not active orally unless it is combined with a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), such as harmaline. Without an MAOI, the body quickly metabolizes orally-administered DMT, and it therefore has no hallucinogenic effect unless the dose exceeds monoamine oxidase's metabolic capacity (very rare). Other means of ingestion such as smoking or injecting the drug can produce powerful hallucinations and entheogenic activity for a short time (usually less than half an hour).
Apparently you can extract DMT from most or many plants (some river reeds, grass cuttings even?)
Also, after reading for 5 hours about DMT and how to prepare it, it doesn't seem difficult to do so.
So why is this not talked about as much as LSD and shrooms? If it's known to have a heavier trip then the two stated above, why don't much people know about it?
Personally I am very eager to try this stuff out. It sounds amazing and fairly simple to obtain in a "tea" or brew form.
