\u201c\u2026 While both the natural and synthetic versions of a chemical contain impurities, these impurities are quite different. In a genuinely natural chemical from a traditional herb or food, one that is extracted without involving reactions with other synthetic chemicals, the impurities present have been safely ingested along with this chemical in the herb\/food for a long time, often many centuries. On the other hand, its synthetic version has been produced usually through numerous synthetic steps (chemical reactions), generating many new chemicals as impurities. The chemists try their best to purify the resulting chemical by removing these impurities. Still, there are always traces of these unknown impurities left\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have they ever been identified or tested for their toxicities? Ask the folks who make synthetic \u201cpharmaceutical-grade\u201d drugs, including psilocybin, in coming years. Don\u2019t buy their products unless free of impurities!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
