And believe me I`ve tried!!. I`m talking about a year long cake build up of resin. And remove your rubber b4 using tol.
But whatever, that is why I`ve got toluene in my cupboard. My acetone is to clean my girlfriends essential oil burners.
Hey is this for real?
(as in safrole aminating to MDA inside the body???)

SASSAFRAS (Sassafras albidum)
INTRODUCTION :
The North-American foliage tree Sassafras albidum is a rich source of safrole. Sassafras' effects vary from euphoria in low doses to hallucinogenic effects in higher doses. Safrole is also present in illicium parviflorum, acorus calamus and nutmeg.
EFFECTS :
Euphoria, erotic sensations, heavy stimulation and changes in visual- and auditory perception,
Autonomic changes: dilated pupils, nausea, increased cardio-output, rise of bloodpressure.
DURATION :
The symptoms appear in 10-90 minutes after ingestion and last for 7-8 hours..
USAGE :
Sassafras can be prepared as a tea, or can be chewed.
For half a litre tea, approximately 30 grams of Sassafras is needed. When chewed, lower doses will also be effective.
CHEMISTRY :
Safrole is a component of the aromatic oil present in the rootbark of Sassafras albibidum.
The rootbark has an oil content of 6-9% and of which 85% is safrole. Safrole itself isn't responsible for Sassafras'effects, but it's amination product, MDA (3,4-methylene dioxyphenylisopropylamine), a psycho-active b-phenethylamine is. This amination process has been shown to occur in vitro and probably also occures in vivo, altough MDA has not yet been found in nature.
Because MDA is closely related to the neurotransmitters dopamine and noradrenaline, it might excert its effects by mutual influence on the active sites of the central nervous system. MDA also interferes with the serotonergic mechanisms in the brain. MDA probably depletes 5HTP neurons.
The MDA-molecule has two optical isomers of which the levo-rotary is the most potent.
Safrol is non-polar and can easily be extracted with steam distilation. Safrole has hepatotoxic properties.
MODIFIERS :
- Cannabis can intensify the experience.
- MAO-inhibitors can alter sassafras' effects.
DANGEROUS COMBINATIONS :
- Sasssafras should not be combined with high doses of alcohol
