There are people who use it as<strong> a medicinal plant<\/strong> because of its natural antibiotic and narcotic effect. In this sense<strong> we can divide the effects of mescaline<\/strong> in the following lines:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>-Therapeutic effect of mescaline:<\/strong><\/span> many people may think that it\u2019s frivolous, but the fact that<strong> the antibiotic effect<\/strong> has been demonstrated.

People recognize that they see <strong>sensory and visual.<\/strong> Some describe their effects as if they were seeing <strong>a succession of colors that are changing<\/strong> or they hear more broadly the sounds that surround them. The opposite side to all this is that mescaline can also trigger nightmares.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>-Physical effects of mescaline:<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 as we said before, it causes vomiting, <strong>but also diarrhea<\/strong>, although, of course, it doesn\u2019t cause the same effect worldwide. In this sense and as with all these types of substances, it is recommended <strong>to start slowly and see how our body tolerates<\/strong> the intake of mescaline.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_is_mescaline_consumed_and_prepared\"><\/span>How is mescaline consumed and prepared?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There are three ways to consume mescaline:<strong> by mouth, by intravenous or by sucking.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the most common ways <strong>to prepare mescaline<\/strong> are as follows:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>-Infusion: <\/strong>Just as <strong>cannabis<\/strong> <strong>can be infused<\/strong>, mescaline is also prepared in this way and, in fact, is the most comfortable and enjoyable way to do it, although the effects are different to if you do it <strong>intravenously<\/strong> . To do this, simply cut the fresh cactus into small pieces and boil it with water for a few minutes. After a while, the liquid is drained and the operation is repeated <strong>with the same pieces of cactus<\/strong>, a few more times. Finally the liquids that <strong>have been boiled and collected<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"pbgreend\">The <strong>San Pedro type cactus<\/strong> can also be made in the same way, but with powder.
