Opiates From Sugar: A Fermentation Route

Hello boys, welcome to the watchlist.

one of those videos and channels where its like old YouTube. It hasn't blown up, no bots, no politics, and no bizarre arguments. Just people interested in the topic and discussing it. Nice.

The tendency for vomiting from thebaine and other non psychoactive alkaloids in opium makes it ,opium,quite difficult to overdose from. If a user has no tolerance, they’ll likely vomit before it’s all absorbed. If a tolerance is present in a user, that in itself would also be a hinderance to overdose on top of the thebaine. Laudanum is problematic because it has large amounts of opium dissolved into a liquid and therefore a very large amount of morphine and codeine. Much more than just opium dissolved into a tea. It’s really beyond me why opium is illegal. If it were legally available, just by growing one’s own supply,fentanyl and heroin market would be reduced drastically. Humans have been using opium for at least 10k years. It was never much of a problem until modern drug laws were passed. Immediately, the most concentrated and potent and therefore addictive and deadly versions of the drug(opioids)were being smuggled and sold on the black market for astronomical profit margins. It’s not a mysterious phenomenon.

I used to live where they grew opium poppies on farms to harvest the seeds. These were for bakers to put on hard rolls and bagels etc. You know, those tiny black seeds. Birds spread them all over the area. There were poppies growing through the cracks in the sidewalk, along the train and trolley car tracks, just about every open space where weeds were growing. I don’t know what type of poppies they were but they looked exactly like the photos on this video. I would go first thing in the morning for a walk and slice the pods along my route. I had learned when and how to do it. In early afternoon I would retrace my steps and by then the white latex had turned black. I would harvest it, roll it into a little ball, which grew bigger day by day during the season. I would pinch off a tiny bit, and either dissolve it in a cup of tea or just swallow it. I got stoned as hell! Lasted all day. 😁 this was in Europe. Where I’m not going to say. The poppy seed industry no longer exists thanks to the do gooders, but our friends the birds have spread it all over the place.

I'm looking forward to Nilereds next video

"brown sugar, how come you taste so good?" 🍻

Instructions unclear I now have 2 tonnes of moonshine

Clicking on this video, I was hoping for a simple recipe. Something like "Add 100g of sugar to 1l of water, bring it to a boil, add a pinch of salt, stir 3 times to the left, 7 times to the right, say a magic spell and poof you got a pot full of Vicodin." Still very interesting though.

clicked out of curiosity now realize i'm on a list or two.

A lot has happened in this field since those two papers. One of the authors of the original 2015 paper went on to found the biotech company Antheia, who recently partnered with API manufacturer Olon Group to produce thebaine on a commercial scale. We’re actually quite close to seeing this technology potentially replace opium poppies. Antheia also has some interesting patents regarding the improvements they’ve made to the process.

This video is like how youtube first was, alot of nich information shared across the platform. Had a nostalgia flashback lol

As a molecular biologist, I can assure you there's no such thing as a dead end in this field. There are setbacks and delays, sure. Long stretches with no discernable progress being made. Months of head scratching and seemingly endless troubleshooting come with the territory. But the tools and techniques of the trade are vast, and the ways in which they can be modified or combined are limited only by one's ethics and imagination.

This channel is massively underrated

The nausea is a safety mechanism. We have opiate receptors for a reason.

A few years ago I learned that growing poppy in America is totally legal so long as you don't process it. I just got a few hundred seeds and am creating the compost for them this fall. I am also going to start growing Aztec tobacco next year.

You're kind of wrong about the definition of opioid. "Opioid" doesn't have anything to do with natural or synthetic: opioids are simply anything that interacts with the opioid receptors, and opiates come directly from opium poppies. All opiates are opioids, but not all opioids are opiates. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine are both natural indole alkaloid opioids that are either consumed in or extracted from plant material, but they're not opiates.

Everyone on parole watching this 👀

How much you wanna bet that the cartels will be using this for production long before it gets approved to be used by pharmaceutical companies?

Just started watching but already saying, having an alternative source of opiates/oids might come in handy in a shtf situation where painkillers might become unavailable.

This is eye opening. Its like an uphill battle to get people healthy again, and loving themselves
