Salvia Divinorum
Salvia is the legal an readily available alternative to drugs like cannabis, LSD and PCP; it is generally smoked but, like marijuana, can also be chewed or made into a tea and drunk. Says Jonathan Appel, an assistant professor of psychology and criminal justice at Tiffin University in Ohio, “It’s much more powerful than marijuana.”.
Parents and many of the bodies that are usually the first to seek the banning of any narcotic substance are largely clueless about Salvia, which remains legal in most of the United States.
Not everyone is so willing to let Salvia live, though: Mike Strain, Louisiana’s Agriculture and Forestry Commissioner and former legislator led the way for his state to ban Salvia in 2005 in Louisiana.
Salvia appears in many forms: the leaves sell for around $30 on the Internet, whist a liquid extract is sold in various different flavors and strengths. Websites like SalviaDragon.com deal exclusively in the product it is generally very easy to obtain.
