How does it work?
Banisteriopsis Caapi primarily involves its psychoactive alkaloids—harmine, harmaline, and tetrahydroharmine. These compounds are known to function as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). Here’s a breakdown of how this works:
1. Monoamine Oxidase Inhibition: Monoamine oxidases are enzymes in the body that break down neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. By inhibiting these enzymes, MAOIs can increase the levels of these neurotransmitters in the brain. This can affect mood and emotional responses, potentially reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety.
2. Psychoactive Effects: The alkaloids in Banisteriopsis caapi may contribute to altered states of consciousness when used in larger or more potent forms (like in Ayahuasca). These effects are due to the increased availability of neurotransmitters and the interaction of these alkaloids with various neural pathways.
3. Therapeutic Potential: The potential increase in neurotransmitters can help promote a sense of well-being, which is why Banisteriopsis caapi has been explored for its therapeutic benefits, including its use in traditional healing practices for mental health issues.
Is it legal?
Banisteriopsis caapi itself is legal in the USA as it does not contain any controlled substances.
Where do you ship?
At this time, we only ship within the USA.
Is it safe to take with other medications?
Taking Banisteriopsis caapi, especially in supplement form like Aya Caps, with other medications should be approached with caution due to its monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) properties.
Here are some important considerations:
Interaction with Medications: MAOIs can interact with a variety of medications, including antidepressants, certain pain medications, and drugs used for Parkinson’s disease. These interactions can lead to serious side effects such as high blood pressure, serotonin syndrome, and other potentially life-threatening conditions.
Interaction with Foods: Aside from medications, MAOIs can also interact with certain foods that are high in tyramine, such as aged cheeses, cured meats, and some fermented products. Eating these foods while taking an MAOI can cause a hypertensive crisis, a sudden and dangerous increase in blood pressure.
General Precautions: Because of these risks, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any supplement that acts as an MAOI, especially if you are currently taking other medications or have underlying health conditions. Your healthcare provider can assess the potential risks and benefits based on your specific health profile and medications.
Always ensure that any decision to use herbal supplements like Banisteriopsis caapi is made with the guidance and supervision of a qualified health professional to avoid adverse effects and interactions.
