Krótki zarys długiej historii psychodelików

Psychedelics most likely represent the oldest class of pharmacological compounds used by humans. The origins of the use of these substances will probably never be fully understood by us however, thanks to archaeological findings, we are able to learn about their history. These substances with the ability to induce states of altered perception were used a very long time ago to enhance mystical and religious experiences. They were taken by the Olmecs, Zapotecs, Mayans and Aztecs, among others. Today, in many parts of the world, research is being conducted into the use of psychedelics for a wide variety of medical conditions, but their form and capabilities are closely tied to the legislation of the countries concerned.
