Apart from coca and khat, what other potent plant-containing stimulants are there?
cocoa - contains stimulants like theobromine, PEA, traces of caffeine, along with other alkaloids like cannabinoids and opioids.
cammillia sinensis - AKA tea, contains caffeine and theanine. theanine is more of a depressant, but has dopaminergic effects.
cocoa doesnt have canabinoids or opioids in it![]()
It's not like powder cocaine grows on trees. There's a whole chemical refinement process that goes on to specifically extract the cocaine from the coca. Coca leaves by themselves are mildly stimulating when made as a tea. I think you're asking a bit much of old mother nature.![]()
Did I say that cocaine or cathinone grows on trees?! You're putting words in my mouth! I wanted to know what powerful stimulants, such as cocaine, occur in nature. Gosh, I didn't know I'd have such a hard time getting people to understand me :D
I didn't say that at all. My point was just that you shouldn't expect natural stimulants to compare to cocaine. Don't be so defensive. I intended no disrespect.![]()
