Topic: Smoking Toad: The History and Future of 5-MeO-DMT
Join renowned explorer and anthropologist Dr Wade Davis CM (Canada) as he leads a psychedelic detective story into the strange, powerful world of 5-MeO-DMT.
5-MeO-DMT is the first hallucinogen from the animal kingdom, and the most powerful one known. Its origins are bizarre, its effects profound, and its potential just beginning to be understood. Mystery is the message. Discovery is the payoff.
From secret ceremonies to global trials, we follow the clues to a truth no one could have imagined.
You will learn:
- The origin story of 5-MeO-DMT: From underground discovery to the secretion of a desert toad, this is psychedelic history few people know.
- Why it’s called “the most powerful hallucinogen on Earth”: How it works, how it differs from other psychedelics, and what makes it so intense.
- How 5-MeO is being used today: From ceremonies to therapeutic settings
- Inside the current global trials: A look at the emerging science, clinical potential for trauma and depression, and why major researchers are paying close attention.
