[[Anahuasca]] is put together in similar to the way in which [[ayahuasca]] is put together. Some combinations ''are'' pharmacology dangerous. | |||
The most commonly know of these combinations seems to be the [[ayahuasca]] Analog, [[Pharmahuasca]]. | |||

There are many natural resources of [[Harmaline]] and [[Harmine]] containing plants. [[Harmala alkaloids]] Seem to be the most common, but any MAOI can be used. Shortly after the ingestion of the MAOI (usually 15- 20 minutes) a psychoactive substance or plant is consumed. | ||

For [[pharmahuasca]], 100 mg [[N,N-DMT]] and 50 mg harmaline is usually the recommended dosage per person. However, combinations of 50 mg [[harmaline]], 50 mg [[harmine]], and 50 mg, [[N,N-DMT]] have also been tested with success. As a rule, the fewer the [[β-carbolines]], the less the [[nausea]]; the more [[DMT]], the more spectacular the visions. The constituents are put into separate gelatin capsules. The capsules with [[Harmaline]]/[[Harmine]] are swallowed first and the capsule containing the [[DMT]] is taken some fifteen to twenty minutes later.

====Mayahuasca==== | |||
For several years there has been considerable speculation that the pre-Columbian Maya may have used a psychoactive ritual drink that was an ayahuasca analog. It has been conjectured that the Mayans used a Banisteriopsis species that grows in the Mesoamerican lowlands in combination with a source of DMT to make "mayahuasca" (Hyman 1994). It is entirely possible that Banisteriopsis miricata was used for this purpose, as its stems contain harmine and its leaves DMT. In other words, it is possible that an ayahuasca analog was made from just one plant. | For several years there has been considerable speculation that the pre-Columbian Maya may have used a psychoactive ritual drink that was an ayahuasca analog.

====Endohuasca==== | |||
The pharmacologist James Callaway has hypothesized that under certain circumstances a kind of pharmahuasca (which he calls endohuasca) is produced in the brain when both endogenous β-carbolines and endogenous DMT are excreted. This endohuasca produces dreams in a neurochemical manner (Callaway 1995; cf. also Ott 1996). | The pharmacologist James Callaway has hypothesized that under certain circumstances a kind of pharmahuasca (which he calls endohuasca) is produced in the brain when both endogenous [[β-carbolines]] and endogenous [[DMT]] are excreted.
