1. Can the difference between ayahuasca and pharmahuasca - supposedly pharma is less teaching, guiding, or "grounding" (whatever that means) - be offset by simply increasing the dose of extracted harmalas?
2. For those who do pharma with caapi alkaloids, do you notice many differences between using a full caapi brew and using a high dose of extracted caapi alkaloids? If so, which ones?
3. For those who do pharma with rue alkaloids, do you notice many differences between using a full rue brew and using a high dose of extracted rue alkaloids? If so, which ones?
4. Caapi is expensive and thus people don't often use much at a time, Rue in high doses I hear is not healthy and/or contains unsafe levels of toxic compounds (vasicine)......Would taking a high dose of purified Rue harmalas be a good middle ground? Harmalas do have strong effects, right? Would a dose of purified Rue harmalas so large that an unpurified equivalent in Rue would be dangerous, be a reasonable way to go?
On another note, why do people use so few caapi harmalas when doing pharma with caapi extract....If 50g of caapi contains about a gram of alkaloids, why do people often use under 400mg caapi alkaloids per dose.....could this be why the experience is often seen as lacking?
