According to a recent Stanford University study, the plant-based psychoactive drug Ibogaine, when combined with magnesium to protect the heart, safely and effectively reduces post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression by over 80% and improves functioning and well-being in veterans with traumatic brain injuries -- Ibogaine is also effective in combating opioid addiction.
Ibogaine is a naturally occurring compound found in the roots of the Gabonese shrub Tabernanthe iboga that Gabonese members of the Bwiti religion have used for centuries in spiritual and healing ceremonies. A 2021 article in Time Magazine stated that psychedelics like Ibogaine are rapidly approaching acceptance in mainstream medicine, and that the plant is one of the most promising psychedelics for defeating addiction.
