    Hey there

    on the lookout for some vine cuttings, around finger thickness  wet or dry. Wet is preferred as I know dosage better, for myself and to offer to a mate who’s going through a horrendous marriage split. It just doesn’t grow well at all where I live, I am trying but it’s cold cold winter and hot dry summers…

    Can offer cactus or cash as a trade,

    Cheers

    Apparently the South Australian Cactus and Succulent Society planted a garden in his honour or obtained a lot of his plants And then planted a garden in his honour….something like that. 
    I’ve got a Victor 4 in the garden. Looks like a nice, classic peruvianus. It’s been in the ground since feb or march, should grow well this season

    ^ @bonecud_56 that's actually the Candicans.  The unknown is behind it to the left - and I'm thinking it's probably another candicans with that many ribs. 


    cool, definitely keen on it still. Looks a bit different to the other candicans I’ve got from you. They’re nice plants

    I use Zeolite in the garden. I believe it's an engineered stone product. Cactus plants seem to love it. My understanding is that nutrients etc. bind to the zeolite somehow, reducing the need for fertilisers. I have never tried taking it myself.

    Installers of artificial turf use zeolite crystals as an odour-absorbent -- ammonia from pet urine binds to the zeolite, eliminating smell. I guess human detox might work on a similar principle.

     

     

    I guess so too, kinda makes sense...binds to things you want to expel. Kinda like bentonite clay consumption

    Hi bonecud. 

     

    Never heard of this before so had a bit of a Google on what people use it for,

    and a quick look at some of the literature. So saying that, take everything below with a grain of salt, as I clearly don't know much about it. 

     

    What are you planning on using it for? The main thing I see is heavy metal detox? As a supplement like that it seems pretty dodgy. Maybe not harmful, but unlikely to be of any benefit. There's very little chance the average person has anywhere near enough heavy metals in their system to warrant a detox in any case. And to be honest, that applies to any form of detox, you're just wasting your time and cash. Of course there's the exceptions, such as naltrexone for opiate addiction, and things of that nature. 

     

    Most supplements are really a complete waste of money from a therapeutic point of view. But there's no shortage of people that would totally disagree with that, so whatever floats your boat I guess. 

     

    From a pharmacology point of view it seems quite promising as a scaffold for delivering other drugs, so maybe that's what your interested in? But that would mean it's already in the scaffold, so most likely real medicine right? So then as far as MAOIs, next questions would be what is the other drug, does it even have use of zeolite as a scaffold, and how and why? 

     

    If you or your friend are on MAOIs, I wouldn't be taking anything your unsure of. Best bet would be to ask your/their doctor. Certainly don't listen to me for medical advice, or anyone else online. That's what doctors are for after all. 

     

    And you know the old saying, alternative medicine that works is called medicine, not alternative medicine. 

     

    If you are happy to say why you/they want to take it it would help I guess. But maybe that's personal so none of my business. 

     

    I'd just finish with if MAOIs are working for you/them then why fuck with it? There's more important things than tripping or whatever else (and especially not some detox supplements). But these are the ramblings of someone who didn't even know you could take zeolite half an hour ago, so as I said at the start, take it all with a grain of salt, I could be entirely wrong. 

     

    Am interested to see what anyone else has to say about it though. 

    Cheers man. Yeah I use zeolite in my cactus pots and garden too. And that’s what I told him, it’s there to absorb minerals in the soil, so I guess the heavy metal detox is the reason why peeps use as a health supplement. He reckons that the only thing that was different between normal changa missions and the one that made him sick. And the zeolite was there for the rue/subs journey too, when he was quite ill, so he’s assuming that zeolite was a factor there too

    Hey there

    Curious to learn if anyone has heard of zeolite taken as a health supplement interfering or reacting with MAOIs?

    A mate recently had took some sub's with syrian rue tea half an hour prior and got pretty crook in the guts, to the point of vomiting. On another occasion he smoked some changa and also felt sick in the stomach later that night. He's not felt sick on changa before in a half a dozen or so experiences. 

    Any feedback would be very much appreciated

    Cheers

    Are you still after some caapi, or did Glaukus sort you out?

    dunno about these guys, but I'm looking for a yellow caapi plant and/or seeds or both
