Matthew 10:16 Be as wise as a serpent. Hosea 4:6 My people perish from lack of knowledge.
Disclaimer: I can't encourage anyone to use this stuff and don't. I and others believe the rumor that it is a "psychedelic", is a myth that's been widely circulated, as well as "marketing hype". It's my belief that Voacanga africana seeds and bark are only safe in dosages of around .5-1 gram, after that it starts to become toxic. I wouldn't go over 3/4 of a gram really, as one gram is pushing it and is for experienced consumers with a tolerance. It doesn't produce a high but offers mild stimulation in small doses. 1 gram is a bit much for a first timer. This information is for intel and harm reduction purposes only. I also wouldn't take it every single day. Not all supplements are to be treated the same way and dosage is everything, as well as how often the medicine is administered. For this ethnobotanical, I would say 1-3 days max, and then stop for a few weeks, or for good. Don't buy this stuff from a shaman/witchcraft/occult shop as it will bring a curse upon you. Sourcing is a problem these days and I always suggest to people to get seeds now(non-gmo), and grow and supply yourself. Here is a non-academic source that also speculates the "invention" of this plant as a psychedelic, because it doesn't appear to be one: https://www.environmentandsociety.org/arcadia/invention-voacanga-africana-ceremonial-psychedelic (The ibogaine content in Voacanga africana is so low that it is useless for producing a high but still has that valuable pharmacological micro-dose value for medicinal use)
Nicknames: Voacanga;
Ethnobotany: According to Stetson University, Ethnobotany is defined as: "The study of the practical uses of plants within a particular region or culture, focusing on traditional knowledge and customs regarding medicinal, religious, and other applications."(Via: Stetson University @ Stetson.EDU) Voacanga africana is an ethnobotanical that has a history of use as a medicinal plant in many African countries.[1] Its traditional applications in ethnobotanical medicine there include: treating malaria, worm infestation, amoebiasis, ulcers, pain, cardiovascular conditions, depression, fatigue, shortness of breath, diarrhoea, gynaecological conditions, delayed labour, kidney conditions, malaria, asthma and convulsions.[1] Like many other plants, the occult has found its own applications for Voacanga species[40], however the plant can be used in non-occultish ways as well, as proven by the indigenous medicinal applications that the cultures of Africa have discovered throughout the generations of using it and learning about it. Indigenous occult cultures in Africa(African shamans), use it for divination, necromancy, and other occult practices.[40] However, it can be used as a medicine, and without getting high too, as studies have proven the Ibogaine that it produces is good for treating PTSD and other trauma related conditions, drug addiction, and other ailments.[41][42][43]
Classification: Depending upon dosage: brain tonic that induces neurogenesis(due to ibogaine content), neuroplasticity(due to ibogaine content), stimulant, aphrodisiac, psychedelic, poison.;[27] The claim that it is a psychedelic is widely challenged, and I would consider it more of a pseudo-psychedelic, only suitable for micro-dosing. In large enough dosages, it stops being beneficial to the mind and starts to become toxic.[31] As far as the "poison" part goes, that is only true in high enough dosages. Remember the Arndt Schultz Law, which is a medical rule that states(in my own words): The difference between a medicine and a poison, is strictly dependent upon the dosage administered.[28] Therefore, any medicine in a large enough dosage can be bad for you, and any "poison" in a small enough dosage is actually beneficial, according to the medical rule.[28] The general rule of thumb is that small doses stimulate, moderate doses inhibit, and large enough dosages kill(with certain exceptions of course).[28]
Plant Family: Apocynaceae;[32] Genus: Voacanga;[32] Species: V. africana;[32]
What is Phytochemistry? What are Phytochemicals? Phytochemicals are NOT the same thing as research chemicals. Phytochemicals are God-made medicines. According to the University Of Putra Malaysia: "Phytochemistry is the study of the chemistry of substances found in plants."(Via: https://ibs.upm.edu.my/content/phytochemistry-34443 ) Phytochemistry is a branch of medical science that discovers new drugs and medicines from ethnobotanicals(plants).[36][33][34][35] Ethnobotany on the other hand, is sort of a precursor to phytochemistry, as phytochemist learn which specimens to research in the lab thanks to the ethnobotanist and his research.[33][34][35] Ethnobotanist study plants that were used by cultures from all walks of life, throughout the entire history of recorded history.[33][34][35] Gangs of organized criminals operating in the government, ran circles around Christians and Jews trying to coverup what really happened to the ethnobotanical industry. I'm here to expose it. They've roped off the international economy using various methods including financial discrimination, social media shadow bans, and "negative seo attacks".
Pharmacological / Medicinal Properties: "These alkaloids have peculiar medicinal uses in the treatment of psychotic ailments, drug addiction, and also serve as precursors for drug synthesis."[1] Ibogaine is illegal[5], however it is one of the most miraculous substances on the planet according to research[6], and while the substance itself is illegal, most plants that produce it are not controlled, making it a grey area treat for anyone interested. "Studies have demonstrated possible efficacy in the treatment of worm infestation, amoebiasis, ulcer, pain and inflammation, cardiovascular condition, depression, diarrhoea, onchocerciasis, mental disorder, and microbial infections. The plant also has CNS, neuro-protective, sedative, anti-microbial, anti-tumor and anti-oxidant activities."[1] I go over more of the pharmacology and medicinal properties of Voacanga below, as I break down each individual medicine produced by the plant.
Phytochemicals Produced By Voacanga africana: ibogaine, tabersonine, and voacangine.[1][47] ibogamine[7], iboxygaine[8], voacamine[8], voacorine[8], isovoacangine[9], tabernanthine[10], and voacristine[11]. Others include: Vobasine, voacamidine, voacarine, voaphylline, vobtusine, voalfolidine.[46]
Ibogaine: Ibogaine can be described as a miracle medicine. According to Stanford University: "Stanford Medicine researchers have discovered that the plant-based psychoactive drug ibogaine, when combined with magnesium to protect the heart, safely and effectively reduces PTSD, anxiety and depression and improves functioning in veterans with TBI(traumatic brain injury)."[51] Nolan Williams, MD, an associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences go on to state that: "No other drug has ever been able to alleviate the functional and neuropsychiatric symptoms of traumatic brain injury". He adds that: "The results are dramatic, and we intend to study this compound further."[51] One should note that Voacanga is only suitable for micro-dosing Ibogaine, as it produces far less than Tabernanthe Iboga, making it much safer than Tabernanthe Iboga. "Ibogaine has been associated with instances of fatal cardiac arrhythmia, but coadministration of magnesium may mitigate this concern."[52] Based on experience, I would say that around .5-1 gram of the bark is all one needs when consuming Voacanga africana, and with such a low Ibogaine content, the safety is much higher than that of Tabernanthe Iboga. I would not go any higher than that. You won't "trip" from a dose of .5-1 gram. The National Library Of Medicine source goes on to state that: "We assessed changes from baseline to immediately and 1 month after treatment. Outcomes included changes in PTSD, depression and anxiety. Also observed were significant improvements in functioning both immediately after treatment and in PTSD, depression and anxiety at 1 month after treatment. There were no unexpected or serious adverse events."[52]
Tabersonine: Let's start off with a quote from PubChem: "Tabersonine is a monoterpenoid indole alkaloid with cytotoxic activity. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent."[53] Cytotoxic is another term for "antineoplastic agent". Again, an antineoplastic agent is: "Antineoplastic drugs are medications used to treat cancer. Other names for antineoplastic drugs are anticancer, chemotherapy, chemo, cytotoxic, or hazardous drugs."[49] So what it is saying is that antineoplastic agents and cytotoxic means the same thing. I will update the: List Of Medical Terms And Meanings Glossary with this information. Tabersonine is also produced by the following species: Alstonia yunnanensis, Tabernaemontana catharinensis, and other organisms.[53] Now I know which species to write about next. These facts illustrate how medicine originates from nature(placed there by the creator), and not the serpent on the side of the ambulance, U.N. emblem, nor the W.H.O. idol. Satan can't create, he can only pervert.
Iboxygaine: "Iboxygaine has been reported in Tabernaemontana catharinensis, Tabernanthe iboga, and Tabernaemontana corymbosa."[55] It's not to be confused with Ibogaine. An interesting new fact that I discovered upon researching this alkaloid, is that iboxygaine has also been isolated from a species known as: Peschiera lundii(A synonym for: Tabernaemontana hystrix)[56]
Voacristine: Voacristine has also been isolated from Peschiera lundii(A synonym for: Tabernaemontana hystrix)[56] According to PubMed: "Voacristine, an indole alkaloid, has dose-dependent cytostatic and cytotoxic effects on cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These inhibitory effects take place only in growing cells."[60] Voacristine is considered cytotoxic(anti-cancer) when used properly(dose matters!).[60] The source goes on to tell us that Voacristine is also found in the leaves of Ervatamia coronaria (Stapf.)(Apocynaceae)[60] Ervatamia coronaria is a Synonym for: Tabernaemontana divaricata Crepe Jasmine, Pinwheel Flower. https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/FP568 Here's a cool website: http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=230002073
Voacamine(VOA): "Voacamine (VOA), a novel bisindole natural product, possesses a variety of conspicuous pharmacological activities. Within the current research, we evaluated in vitro and in vivo the anticancer efficacy of Voacamine(VOA) against Colorectal cancer(CRC) and its potential mechanisms. Our results illustrated that Vocamine(VOA) concentration dependently suppressed the proliferation and migration of CT26 and HCT116 cells as correspondingly.[57] My source goes on to state that: "Furthermore, Voacamine(VOA) also suppressed tumor cell colony formation, escalated the late-stage apoptosis rate of tumor cells, and evoked cell cycle of CT26 and HCT116 cells arrest inhibition in G2-M and G0-G1 phases, respectively.[57] It goes on to state that: "Meanwhile, Voacamine(VOA) markedly disrupted the mitochondrial membrane potential eliciting mitochondrial dysfunction, decreased ATP production, and intermediated an enhanced accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species with a concentration-dependent pattern, accompanied by elevated expression levels of pro-apoptotic related protein".[57] That last part about "eliciting mitochondrial dysfunction" concerns me, and I can't help but wonder what dosage they administered to get those results, because drugs are versitile, and can have opposing effects depending upon their dosages.[28] Based on those results alone, it seems self evident that this plant is only medicinal in very small dosages. Mitochondria are organelles that reside within living cells inside your body.[59] They are responsible for converting food into energy, thus fueling your body.[59] I also want readers to keep in mind that these results are from the pharmacological testing of Voacamine(VOA) specifically, and not just Voacanga africana(the actual dried plant material), which means it is one chemical and not the "soup full of chemicals"(the dried plant material), so to speak. It also means that whatever dosages were administered to get these results in this study, may not yield the same results(or pharmacological actions) when consuming a dosage of the bark, and I cite the Arndt Schultz Medical Law again on that.[28] Consuming 25mg of pure Voacamine isn't the same as consuming X grams of dried plant material. I'm curious how much voacamine by percent is in these specimens and am looking into that now.. The answer to that question is: "Major alkaloids isolated from the bark were identified as iboga-vobasinyl dimers (~3.7%) such as voacamine and voacamidine."[58] It's just math from there. I'm not sure how that translates to MG's but there's a way. I posted this question on Quora and requested someone provide academic sources as proof that what they're saying is true: Question: How does an alkaloid percentage of an ethnobotanical specimen translate into miligrams? In other words: Whats 4% Voacamine in Voacanga africana bark translated into miligrams? I will check the sources if anyone answers.
Voacangine: "Voacangine is a monoterpenoid indole alkaloid that can be isolated from several plant species. It has a role as an angiogenesis inhibitor, an antineoplastic agent and a plant metabolite."[47] Q: What is an angiogenesis inhibitor? A: "A drug or substance that keeps new blood vessels from forming. In cancer treatment, angiogenesis inhibitors may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow."[48] | Q: What is an antineoplastic agent? A: "Antineoplastic drugs are medications used to treat cancer. Other names for antineoplastic drugs are anticancer, chemotherapy, chemo, cytotoxic, or hazardous drugs."[49] | Q: What is a plant metabolite? A: "Metabolites are formed in plant cells from structural units including carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrogen."[50] Voacangine is also produced by the following plants: Tabernaemontana macrocarpa, Tabernaemontana flavicans, and other organisms as well.[54] O.G. Observation: The Tabernaemontana genus is known to produce Ibogaine as well and related alkaloids.
Voacangine's use in illegal Ibogaine manufacturing operations: Ibogaine is a powerful medicine that should not be illegal, and it is God-made. Voacanine is a chemical produced by the Voacanga africana plant.[1] It can be used to make Ibogaine illegally because it is a precursor to the drug.[12] Here is a chemist on YouTube messing around with it: Vice clip on converting voacangine to ibogaine(url: https://youtu.be/UMDjl-VvwG4?si=62pZK5FeQELPkttA ) and Here are instructions on Erowid.org on how to extract it(for intel purposes only): https://erowid.org/experiences/exp.php?ID=79837
Safety: "With respect to safety, the ethanolic leaf extract is reported to be relatively non-toxic with an estimated LD50 of ≥ 5000 mg while the aqueous leaf extract had no significant alteration on the blood biochemistry or histopathology of essential organs in murine models."[1] Keep in mind that's in reference to the leaf extract, not the root bark. The safety of Voacanga africana depends upon the dosage administered, as this ethnobotanical is a classic example of the importance of understanding the Ardnt Shultz Law, which is a medical law that basically states the difference between a medicine and a poison is the dosage of the substance administered, and that small doses stimulate, moderate doses inhibit, and large doses kill(with certain exceptions.)[2][3][4] Paracelsus simplified the Ardnt Shultz Law in his own words: "it's the dose that makes the poison"[14] By the way, "Paracelsus was a Swiss physician, alchemist, lay theologian, and philosopher of the German Renaissance"[15]
Mixes well with: I generally discuss the use of MAOI producing plants in combination with other psychoactives like plants that produce ibogaine., in order to prolong their duration and amplify their effects, essentially enabling the user to lower their dose and make the medicine last longer.[33][35] Certain plants produce MAOI constituents such as harmala, harmaline, harmalol, and related constituents that I refferr to as "harmala's".[33][35] These phytochemicals are produced by: Passion flower(Passiflora incarnata), Banisteriopsis caapi, Bobinsana, Xhosa Dream Herb(Silene capensis[undulata]). MAOI's can be very dangerous if you combine them with prescription medications![45]
OG Observations: The occult doesn't want people to know these facts, have access to these ethnobotanicals that produce these drugs, nor import them and sell them, UNLESS they're in one of their cults. They pretend like things are illegal if you're not in their freemason, nazi or satanic temple cults, but really they're not. The socialist use Christians and Jews as flying monkies because they know they'll discriminate, and to illustrate this point I am citing a scholarly source to illustrate how Nazi Germany was a mostly Christian nation.[37] This means that Christians participated and actually served their own enemy during WWII.[37] Anyway, stuff like Iboga, Khat seeds, Mimosa Hostilis were all provided by Bouncing Bear Botanicals back in the day, along with a rad documentary on the pharmacology of ethnobotanical drugs like DMT, Ibogaine, etc, called "Footprints Of The Shaman". During the planneddemic the socialist waged war on the global economy, and that's what social media shadow bans are about, as well as to prevent the truth from going viral. They're cheating. They also don't want the politicians or Christians and Jews to be alerted of their illegal operations. That's where I come into play. I enjoy providing this intel and pray that it will help the good guys in government bring down gangs of cheaters. Occult gangs like the freemasons, neo nazi's(skull and bones, odin brotherhood), wiccan cults, and satanic temple cults robbed the ethnobotanical industry during the planned-demic, and they're running illegal multi-million dollar psychedelic drug labs.[13] My last operation BotanicalGuides.com got me ganged up on by wiccans, nazi's, freemasons, and satanic temple members in the SRCSO, Pensacola FBI & DEA. I cite academic sources at the end of this sentence to back up the facts that nazi's, freemasons, and satanic temple are all into drugs, isolating them from ethnobotanicals, producing them from ethnobotanical precursors, and using them for occult purposes like necromancy, divination, and even inducing telepathy.[16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] One last fact I want to state that links the attacks on the American economy(arrest for opening business during "lockdowns"(a term used in prisons and jails), to occult gangs operating in the U.S. government(including freemasonry, nazism, and satanic temple cults), is that during the rise of the Nazi's in Germany, there was a similar "planned-demic" called "krystalnacht", where Nazi's trashed and destroyed all non-socialist businsesses.[38][39]

Final notes and related News stories: Texas lawmakers are introducing a bill to allow drug companies to make pharma drugs(pills) from ibogaine, which is another example of cheating and rigging the global economy. Here is a link to that bill: https://capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/89R/billtext/html/HB03717I.htm Bouncing Bear Botanicals, a self made millionaire from Kansas used to supply the entire country, and now the pharma companies want to take over while they have their government agencies bully those that sell it that they don't like. They pretend like it's illegal for people not in their freemason cults, and nazi cults, and satanic temple cults.. and protect their own people who mess with it. They use Christians and Jews as their flying monkies. Here's some more evidence for ya: https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2023/05/425246/ibogaine-inspires-new-treatments-addiction-and-depression. Told ya.

I'm modifying all these buttons. I don't want to present things like I'm necessarily marketing or pushing these products. I'm really trying to show what's being sold and whats out there and expose things but not necessarily promote certain things. I gotta change the way I go about doing that.
