The main active ingredient in salvia is a substance called salvinorin A, which is a very powerful psychoactive compound. When taken in small doses, salvia can produce mild hallucinations and an altered state of consciousness. In larger doses, it can cause very intense hallucinations and out-of-body experiences.

Salvia Divinorum is a plant that has been used for centuries by the Mazatec Indians of Mexico for its psychoactive properties. The active ingredient is salvinorin A, which is a kappa opioid receptor agonist. This means that it activates the kappa opioid receptors in the brain, which are responsible for mediating many of the psychoactive effects of opioids.

Salvinorin A is a very powerful psychoactive compound, and it is thought to be one of the most potent naturally-occurring psychedelics. The effects of Salvia Divinorum are usually described as being very intense and short-lived. They typically peak within 2-5 minutes after consumption and then rapidly decline over the next 30-60 minutes.
