In our previous blog post, we explored the fascinating chemistry and effects of 1P‑LSD and its analogues. But one crucial element deserved its own deep dive: the rise of prodrugs in the research chemical (RC) world and how they reshaped the psychedelic landscape. If you’ve ever wondered how “legal LSD” became a thing...
Smart, safe, and genuinely useful gifts for psychonauts, festival lovers, and harm reduction enthusiasts. A Different Kind of Holiday Gift Guide Every December, gift guides for “stoners,” “ravers”, “festival goers,” and “psychedelic lovers” pop up across the internet—usually filled with mushroom mugs, novelty grinders, and psychedelic décor.

Understanding Harm Reduction: Proactive vs. Reactive Tools Testing is proactive harm reduction. It helps prevent overdoses by allowing you to identify what’s really in your substance before deciding to take it. Drug testing utilizes tools like fentanyl...
New research suggests that psychedelics may be capable of more than altering consciousness; they might also play a role in calming inflammation and balancing the immune system. Scientists studying compounds like LSD, psilocybin, and DMT are finding that these molecules interact with immune pathways in ways that could reshape how we treat...
A groundbreaking phase two clinical trial has found that a single 100-microgram (ug) dose of LSD, in its pharmaceutical formulation MM120, can significantly reduce symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). What makes this finding especially noteworthy is that the relief lasted for up to twelve weeks after just one dose. The results were striking. Nearly...
We had an incredible time at Lost Lands 2025, where our team educated and served hundreds of attendees with test strips, reagent test kits, and harm reduction practices from Wednesday through Sunday. Set up in Camp Spinosaurus, we connected with festival-goers all weekend long, helping people feel confident in testing their substances, sharing harm...
DMT is known for producing short, powerful psychedelic experiences, but new research suggests its potential goes far beyond the trip.

In our last deep dive on DMT cart testing, we delved into the differences in testing DMT vape carts, versus testing DMT powder. We determined that DMT vape carts can—and should—be tested with reagents, in order to confirm the substance present in your vape cart. However, the color change reactions with DMT vape liquid will...
