Initial tests of Spice,and similar products found no illegal substances and were not able to find out where their buzz was coming from.The tests also were unable to detect most of the herbs that the products are supposed to contain.
2008, Volker Auwarter, ScD, and colleagues in the forensic toxicology lab at the University Hospital Freiburg, Germany, found that the products contained at least two different designer drugs known as synthetic cannabinoids.Like THC, the active ingredient in marijuana and other forms of cannabis, these synthetic cannabinoids turn on the cannabinoid receptors found on many cells in the body.But most synthetic cannabinoids are quite different chemical structures from THC. And unlike cannabis, the new drugs HAVE NEVER BEEN TESTED ON/IN HUMANS.The good thing is that it does not show up on a drug test,the bad thing is that incidents have went up over the past 3 years from 0 cases in 2007 to 350 in 2010.In my personal opinion,as long as you be responsible with the product at hanb,you should be fine.Here's a link to Amazon if you would like to try some.Damiana Leaf 2oz
