Admixtures

Almost invariably other plants are mixed together with the jungle vine. The presence of the below plants (the traditional admixtures) alongside Banisteriopsis caapi significantly increases the overall psychoactive effects of these native preparations. The psychoactive tryptamines contained in these admixtures facilitate the visionary power of the Ayahuasca brew. Other non-traditional Ayahuasca components can be found in the analogs category.

   Diplopterys cabrerana (Chagropanga)
   Psychotria viridis (Chacruna)
