    Ayahuasca

    Since 2009, The International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research, and Service (ICEERS) has studied the complexities and challenges of the globalization of traditional Indigenous medicines, such as ayahuasca, iboga, and others.

    Ayahuasca is a ceremonial medicine that is part of the healing practices of Indigenous peoples in certain regions of the Amazon Basin. Ayahuasca is a decoction traditionally made by combining the ayahuasca vine (Banisteriopsis caapi) with leaves of chacruna (Psychotria viridis) or Diplopterys cabrerana. It may also contain other ingredients, which vary widely depending on the region, recipe, and the groups working with it.
