Ajahuaska word berei in die Napo-omgewing van
Ecuador
.
Caapi besig om oor 'n vuur te kook.
Ajahuaska
(ook bekend as
ayahuasca
) verwys na enige van die verskillende psigoaktiewe afkooksels van die
rankplant
Banisteriopsis caapi
wat gewoonlik met die blare van dimetieltriptamienhoudende
spesies
of met
struike
van die
genus
Psychotria
berei word. Die brousel is in die 1950's die eerste keer deur die
Harvard
-etnobotanis Richard Evans Schultes akademies beskryf. Hy het opgemerk dit word deur die
inheemse volke
van die
Amasonereenwoud
in
Colombia
onder 'n verskeidenheid name vir
divinatoriese
en
geneeskundige
doeleindes gebruik.
Dele van
B. caapi
word geweek en dan saam met blare van verskeie ander plante, insluitende
Psychotria viridis
of
Diplopterys cabrerana
, gekook. Die uiteindelike brousel bevat die kragtige
hallusinogeniese
alkaloiede
N,N-dimetielltriptamien
(DMT) en monoamienoksidase-inhiberende harmala-alkaloiede, wat nodig is om die DMT oraal aktief te maak.
Brousels kan ook van plante sonder DMT gemaak word;
Psychotria viridis
word dan vervang deur plante soos
Justicia pectoralis
, Brugmansia of seremoniele tabak, ook bekend as
mapacho
, of soms geheel weggelaat sonder enige plaasvervanger.
Ajahuaska word grotendeels as 'n
godsdienstige
sakrament gebruik. Volgelinge van die
Brasiliaanse
geloof Santo Daime maak openlik gebruik daarvan.
