Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I've seen several people reduce their smoking and/or other addictions by using low doses of salvia divinorum. Chewing a few leaves is all that is required to get enough molecules to reliably fill the kappa-opioid receptors. SD is subpsychedelic at that dose. Case in point, a denturist I know chewed a few leaves on three occasions in a week and dropped his smoking habit by 50%. This occurred without ing for a smoke because the salvinorin A reduces the need as well as the drug-taking behaviour. In short, it reduces the actual ing as well as the physical addiction. Salvia divinorum is anti-addictive to nicotine, amphetamine, cocaine, marihuana, opiates, and alcohol; all these addictive substances that are mu-opioid specific. SD is also non-addictive itself, and it's aso anti-depressive and a pretty good analgesic on its own. In Canada, Richter's Herbs sells SD plants. In the USA there are several sources for plants and products.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 OOPs well Judy T you'll have better luck with the rite speling (kappa-opioid) ing is an old skool term for having a drug want. Originally applied to heroin addicts for drug sickness, it's in general use today for any drug you could for. The rabbit holes are many and they go a long way. I hope the fascination with their turns and details holds for you as it does for me. all good, Duncan > > Duncan, you've no idea how many times you have totally 'lost' me; lol.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Judy the most common cause of food cravings aside from carb cravings is a mineral deficiency, with chromium deficiency causing the most pronounced cravings. Next down the list after minerals I think was vitamin b's. I take Black Indian Shilajit from therootofthematter.net for the trace minerals, chromium polynicotinate 200 mcg and selenium 200 mcg. I also occasionally soak in a salts bath and absorb some magnesium. all good, Duncan Crow > > > > > > Duncan, you've no idea how many times you have totally 'lost' me; lol.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Judy T, I doubt the broccoli cravings are much more than an honest hankerin' ....that FYI will probably sharpen up a few others on mineral supplementation tho' ...especially with the chromium. Yes, epsom salts for the baths. I eat meat, cheese and lots of cream so I'm probably not magnesium deficient. all good, Duncan > > Interesting.
