What does safe psychedelic therapy actually look like in practice? @ProfDavidNutt speaks to writer Erica Rex about her experiences with psychedelic-assisted therapy, the safeguards these treatments require, and how mental health care could better address complex trauma.

Sentia Gold is excellent! You get the warmer bodily feeling and de-tensing that comes with GABA activation, but without the intoxication. There's now a viable alcohol substitute on the market. Definitely recommended!
It’s exciting to see functional drinks gaining momentum. For years I’ve studied alcohol’s effects on the brain, now we’re applying that science to build better alternatives. I'm delighted that the first functional cider is now available - so far just in the UK! sentiaspirits.com/products/g…

A fantastic piece from @HelenaSips on Functional Drinks. Functional drinks are becoming a fast-growing part of the beverage industry, driven by people looking for more from what they drink, beyond flavour or alcohol content. We're proud to be a part of this fast developing space. helenasips.com/p/what-are-fu…

New article published in BJC by The Loop research team explores the proposed poppers exemption. We argue that this unprecedented & apparently liberal recommendation risks bolstering & thereby exacerbating differential discrimination through drug controls. doi.org/10.1093/bjc/azae055
