Is that seed or some scraped up grunge/extract..? I recommend NOT eating the seed solids ! If that brown stuff isn't totally water soluble at acid pH, then filter it ! but what do I know, the picture looks like seeds too..?! What is that brown stuff ..? don't eat that ! Is it dried extract ? And I suggest to smoke dmt after taking the rue, don't eat dmt right away - pharmahuasca can be rough too ! ... When trying MAOIs from 3.5g seed, the b-carbolines will only mildly affect your mind - relaxing and loosening you up just right. Try that alone too, I think 3.5 grams of extracted seed wears off in 2 hours after drinking it. I wonder how long you'd be 'inhibited' from 0.35 - 1.0 g of that brown stuff.. The recipe for liquid extract is so simple - Combine 50 ml Lemon juice (pH 2.1) + 150 ml water + 3.5 grams pulverized seed ( or just 0.35 - 1.0 g 10X stuff), and let sit for 8 - 12 hours at room temp. Stir as often as possible, then filter it to get a clear yellow acid extract that is totally safe to drink (ie NO puking !). It may drip-out the filter and take another 12 hours, just be patient to get perfectly clear lemony extract. Drink this 200 ml with 400 ml OJ or juice.. Then one day after getting used to it all, try eating dmt. Just don't eat the seed !... although the experience of puking your angst out while tripping on 150 mg dmt eaten on 3.5 grams of ground seed is kind of worth it .. just to know how freaking valuable your MAO enzymes are, and how many waves of imagination soup there are out there... ! Eating the seeds is a stronger dose of MAOIs, it must inhibit MAO enzymes more than a lemony extract, but not by much. You get 'woozy' in 50 minutes of consuming a good dose of extract. The MAOIs are probably worth trying to doses high enough to get 'high', but I'm so conditioned from the memory of purging hard that 3.5 g seed is alot, my maximum necessary, to totally potentiate inhaled dmt. The only time I tried eating 3.5 g seed, I didn't stop heaving until I had every particle of rue seed OUT of me ! But the irritant could also have been the 150 mg dmt, letting me I drift for about 2 hours in synesthetic rafts, just peaking ! The rue is very strong at inhibiting the MAO enzymes, but you can't really tell how shut-down they are until you eat some dmt... (> 50 mg) ! jeebus ! But having said that you'll puke if you still have to... I think dmt is able to irritate the stomach more than rue extract. Just have an empty stomach when you take the rue seed EXTRACT ..! then smoking dmt is like a soft velvet-lined-glove-of-love coming off ... instead of a latex-rubber-ego-binding rip through, which we all know too...! So believe ME ! I do not recommend eating any solid parts of the seed ! You will puke ! The seed coat has tannins and other alkaloids in there(supposedly "abortifacient" including the 'puke-ifacient' ones..), which do not become soluble at the acid pH of lemon juice.
