“um i want to talk a little bit about the opiates before we leave it and come talk about a drug called ibogaine a derivative of iboga um you know i have read quite a bit about it and a lot of it's anecdotal but it seems that there's something very interesting going on there where you have this alkaloid that while it comes with its own dangers and it's not clear how over or understated they are relative to cardiac toxicity it seems to have quite an efficacious punch when it comes to relieving people from the throes of opioid addiction”
