to the other world.<\/p>\n<p>This plant is also referred to as yage or the spirit vine.<\/p>\n<p>It is basically a blend of two plants called the banisteriopsis caapi and the chacruna shrub.<\/p>\n<p>This shrub is also called psychotria viridis and it comprises of psychoactive ingredients which may create hallucinations called dimethyltryptamine or DMT.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of the reasons that this medication is banned in many countries.<\/p>\n<p>However, the positive effects of this medicine cannot be denied and it is also recommended that you take the help of a specially
