Heya has anyone experimented with the mescal bean? I only ask cause an assosiate of mine aquired about a dozen pods and their not entirly sure on dosage. I volenteered to guinea pig myself if we could get some ideas of what a normal dose is. I know its VERY toxic and shit too so thats why I'm taking care instead of popping 6 or 7 into my mouth. They're saying that the its around 1-3 seeds... Anyone able to confirm?
Mescal beans are of a different chemical makeup than the comparative san pedro or peyote, and you should be very careful... if you have a dozen pods I would start with a sub threshold dose and see what happens 1-2 beans... But before you do anything research it on erowid.org and read some of the trip reports.
I have never taken Mescal beans, but I know a good amount of information about them. The first, most common myth about them is people think they contain Mescaline, which they do NOT. It actually contains an alkaolid called Cytisine which is related to Nicotine and is actually used in Nicotine patches and gum to help people quit smoking. Now about the bean itself; they are extremely toxic and should not be ingested!! A single bean can be fatal!!
