There's no way you have to worry about becoming addicted to Kambo. Kambo is not something that is enjoyable. It is healing and cleansing but a hard and intense experience.

I've never heard of the evil spirits thing associated with kambo, if anything I feel that the deep cleansing it could potentially keep one free from negative spirits or at least energies and sickness, from harboring in a person. I've heard that psychedelics open the door to the spirit realm and that could potentially be a concern with them, have also had a bizarre experience or two where I felt the presence of evil spirits. Kambo helps purge negative things out of the body. Anyway, it's not something you should worry about or let prevent you from taking kambo. Be strong in mind and faith in good. Kambo is warrior medicine and helps purify you. Worry more about proper procedure, safety, and learning enough so that your experience can go smoothly. Give the medicine respect and put intention into it. Kambo itself has a spirit that helps you, acknowledge that, not evil spirits. The use of florida water and palo santo are used for purifying and smudging space and self as well, and should be used with kambo before, during and after; At least before and after.
$150 does sound way expensive. Unless it includes a place to stay for a day and food, it sounds overpriced.

Hello,

I realize that there is a lot of sections and subsections in this forum. We want to have a wide range of topics on this forum;
Topics available for a broad user-base to communicate, learn, and share posts about in regards to health and healing.

We are going to simplify some sections/subsections and their descriptions, like all the Kambo related ones.
I want to remind users that sections in the forum are collapsible to simplify the forum on the eyes.
Sections that may not often be relevant to the information you users seek to read and post about, can be collapsed/minimized.


Thank you for being a part of our community.

Hello Pete1979; And welcome to our community. 

one of the most profound experiences of my life and there were no "psychedelic" effects at this level when these visions were happening.

I would consider that a sort of of psychedelic effect or at least a stimulation of thought. But entheogenic medicines can have the effect of sort of beaming beneficial thoughts, ideas, and perspectives into your head which seem to come from outside of yourself.

I definitely recommend keeping up with the exercise for helping to regain energy, energy within muscles, and improving cardiovascularity / blood-flow and vein tissue integrity.

Look into NMDA antagonists.
Ibogaine, Noribogaine, harmine, harmaline, magnesium, zinc, german chamomile, methoxetamine, eticyclidone, deschloroketamine, dextromethorphan, memantine, etc.  all have NMDA receptor-site affinity.

NMDA antagonists can cause euphoria like opiates but NMDA antagonists inhibit withdrawals of other drugs, help reset the brain by lowering tolerances to all other drugs, resensitizing the brain to serotonin and dopamine.

If you are still looking to come off any drugs, prescription or otherwise, these chemicals (Ones which are legal in your country of course!  ) can be beneficial.
As always, be careful with any possibility of adverse interactions if taking multiple drugs. Harmalas like harmine/harmaline which are NMDA antagonists, are also RIMAS (reversible mono-amine oxidase inhibitors) and caution must be taken with what you take, while on them.
They can also effect coordination and motor skills and one should not drive or operate heavy machinery on strong doses of them.

If you are looking for an alternative antidepressant, you may possibly want to check out memantine. It is a long lasting NMDA antagonist which at regular doses in not too strong in psychoactive effects. People report it helping them with ADHD, some have reported it causing their allergies to go away after a single or few doses, I have read one report of someone stating that their tinnitus was completely cured after a use of it, and others report that it has lowered their tolerances to other psycho-active chemicals. Which is also something to take into account if using other drugs, they may become more potent especially if synergizing or potentiating, in combination, and caution might be merited.

I am not completely sure how to answer your question in regards to blood pressure. I myself don't have experience with this.
What are your blood pressure readings; Just how bad is it? What are you prescribed for it?
That would help us to answer you, and I will let someone else chime in about that question specifically.

Best regards.

Welcome to the forum anman! ~ 😃 ! ♡ ! ★ ~

I see no reason why you shouldn't be completely fine.

Supposedly it does not affect your mental state in any way?

No, it is not noticeably psychoactive. Kambo contains biologically active amino-acid peptides like dermorphin which is an extremely potent psychoactive opiate molecule, but it is not noticeable as far as a change in mental state, though it may help as an analgesic for issues that cause physical pain in the body. The amounts of it in kambo doses are not high enough to give a strong opiate type of psychological experience.

However, I've also read that people with "mental illness" should not do Kambo. And that made me wonder exactly why that is?  Are there any reported cases of prolonged/permanent mental harm from Kambo? Can it induce psychosis?

I can't see how it would trigger an inherent mental illness as psychedelics would, because as i said, it is not noticeably psychoactive. It can however cause anxiety and fear due to the intensity of the experience and physical effects. Kambo does have some psychological effects like making dreams more lucid. By deeply cleansing toxic substances from the body it lightens ones physical energetic state, increasing the frequency at which you resonate, and also seems to awaken the third eye. It also gives the experience or subtle  impression that kambo has a metaphysical spirit and guiding intelligence in some ways. It seems to intelligently target specific conditions which are most significant. Conscious intention while going into the experience will help with this. Ask kambo for help with what you need.


Hope this helps. On another note, entheogens at lower doses to start, may not trigger the same type of depersonalization and anxiety that cannabis tends to induce for you. Though they are completely capable of it. They can cause anxiety, nervousness / edginess but cannabis has a certain characteristic of inciting anxiety and paranoia in some people or those that don't have a lot of experience or a high tolerance to it.

Table salt, sodium chloride inhibits all the enzymes in the body, by some definitions, this could be considered a poison. It also raises blood pressure and taxes the heart and kidneys. The body only finds a few micro-grains of salt useful to be absorbed and the rest must be eliminated by the kidneys.

Use a 50/50  or 75/25 mix if you're a heavy salt user, of pink Himalayan salt and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). The pink Himalayan salt contains 84 trace minerals and elements and thereby has less sodium per serving. It is a full spectrum mineral supplement and the baking soda absorbs toxins from the body, alkalizes, and oxygenates the blood.

This mix will make your salt go from bad for you, to healthy.

The minerals help:

Aids in vascular health
Supports healthy lungs and respiratory function
Promotes a stable pH balance within the cells
Reduces the signs of aging
Promotes healthy sleep patterns
Increases libido
Prevents muscle cramps
Increases hydration
Strengthen bones
Lowers blood pressure
Improves circulation
Detoxifies the body of heavy metals
