Kanzak Herbal Smokes
Kanzak (Kanna - Mesembryanthemum expansum and M. tortuosum) is known as a vision inducing entheogen and inebriant. The plant contains mesembrine, though the pharmacology of kanna is not fully understood.
There is strong evidence that one or both were used by the Hottentots of southern Africa as vision inducing narcotics. More than two centuries ago, it was reported that the Hottentots chewed the root of kanna, or channa, keeping the chewed material in the mouth, with these results:
"Their animal spirits were awakened, their eyes sparkled and their faces manifested laughter and gaiety. Thousands of delightsome ideas appeared, and a pleasant jollity which enabled them to be amused by simple jests. By taking the substance to excess, they lost consciousness and fell into a terrible delirium."
Some botanists have suggested that the hallucinogenic kanna may actually have been cannabis or other intoxicating plants.
Now you can purchase the Kanna Mood Enlightening Herb, which is composed of 100 percent Kanna.
