Is Ayahuasca Neurotoxic?

[joedirt]

If you would take antioxidants with ayahuasca, could that maybe neutralise these possible neurotoxic effects? ( I believe that acacia confusa is rich in antioxidants, btw )

Actually many antioxidants also have MAOI activity.

Like Infundibulum noted above it is a complicated system we are dealing with.

While I do agree that the reversible nature of haramalas makes them more safe the fact that they are still occupying receptor sites in the varios MAO-A subtypes means that those enzymes are not freed up to block other exogenous biogenic amines.

Look it's pretty simple. NOTHING is good for you all the time. There is no reason to drink aya everyday....or even every other day for an extended period of time. IMHO.
