salvia

I know what you’re thinking–I’m thinking it as well.  “What the? But how? No fucking way!”  Thanks to the internet, I have managed to find what can only be regarded as a mind blowing proposition: salvia as medicine.  If you never smoked salvia then check out my essay, The Salvia Chronicles, but if you have experienced salvia, then you are just as baffled as I am right now.

SalviaSociety.org is a website that deals with everything salvia, and that includes the potential health benefits of using salvia.  According to their site, salvia has the potential to treat the following problems:

  • Depression
  • Drug Addictions
  • Stress
  • Insomnia
  • Digestion
  • Alzheimer’s
  • AIDS
  • Chronic Pain
  • Schizophrenia
  • Cancer
  • And many others

    I’m pretty sure it makes all of those things and more worse…. unless they’re talking about something other than the extract… I’ve heard regular salvia is pretty timid.

  2. Joe Dimeck Says:

    The leaves are pretty timid. You become dizzy and giggly. That’s about it.

  3. Will Ehrhardt Says:

    yea, so maybe using it as a lesser equivalent to weed people think they’re doing something better… or else a good way to make a few more bucks

  4. Joe Dimeck Says:

    Anyone who regularly smokes salvia, extract or leaves, serves as evidence that it’d be better for the collective psychological well-being of the country to just legalize pot in order to stop people from finding these oddball legal alternatives.

  5. Will Ehrhardt Says:

    To make money using the internet is a dream to many people. Although there are many internet entrepreneurs out there but only a few is successful. Having your own internet business doesn't mean you create your website and leave it there hoping customers will come naturally. You need to do your promotion and marketing actively so as to drive traffic to your website. There are different forms of internet advertising which successful internet marketers are using and if you use them correctly, you can see very good results.

    No no wait, I think they're on to something. You smoke enough salvia, you'll completely FORGET you even have depression, drug addictions, stress, insomnia, indigestion, Alzheimer’s, AIDS, chronic pain, schizophrenia, and cancer. Well, maybe not the insomnia, no WAY you're sleepin on SD…
