I recently came across a person who has a local friend who talked about the magical properties of certain nuts that have been used traditionally by aboriginals here in Australia. On further investigation I have discovered this plant to be pandanus spiralis and there is old documentation showing it to contain DMT, as well as the traditional use in pacific island areas. I like that traditional aboriginals in Australia were imbibing in DMT brews, it goes a long way to explain traditional Dreamtime stories like the Rainbow Serpent.
Has anyone has done any study on this plant or actually tried it? I have found absolutely 0 reference on the internet about anyone actually performing an extraction on it, just lots of hearsay and referencing of the one study more than 35 years ago..
I'm kind of excited to realise there may be a local source right here and I've been actually growing and planting it for years. :roll:
Would anyone like to make a punt on which part of the nut and what sort of age and conditions would be more likely to contain actives? I have my suspicions but I'm open to others ideas too.
