Yes, this is very interesting indeed. I recall trapper making a link some months ago, so this is certainly something to study further. (Aloe Vera is intriguing - I had never before realised that this plant was so nutritionally rich!)
I drank a strong tea of burdock root, echinacea root, and dandelion root for about three weeks; this tea would heighten my consciousness to levels I could only compare to prolonged meditation, certain magickal practices, and even to previous drug-use. I am now wondering if the monatomic elements present in both burdock root and echinacea root were solely responsible. I shall experiment some more with this as soon as possible...
