Different kinds of legal highs

Kratom - Very good first choice for anyone interested in ingesting legal substances for psychoactive purposes. It can produce euphoria as well as reduce anxiety, depression, and pain. Should not be consumed daily because it may be habit forming.

Kava - Very good choice for a social party drug. It can produce mild euphoria and tranquillity as well as reduce anxiety, depression, and muscle pain. Kava has properties that might make it effective at helping people with social phobia. At larger dose levels it can be ingested as a medication to treat insomnia. Not habit forming.

Betel Nut - Acts as a mild stimulant, reduces appetite, and produces a feeling of well being. Can be taken alone or used in conjunction with other drugs, when a more energetic high is appropriate. Examples include betel nut and mushrooms or marijuana. Not habit forming.

Wormwood - Can be smoked by itself for a mild high, but when consumed with marijuana, wormwood increases the potency of marijuana and adds its own effects to the mix. Besides being stronger than either substance is on its own, the combined high is more energetic and clear-minded than smoking marijuana alone. Not habit forming.

Hawaiian Baby Woodrose - Strong psychedelic with a chemical structure and effects that are very similar to LSD, although not as intense in a majority of cases. Some drug users (that have tried drugs like LSD and magic mushrooms) report that hawaiian baby woodrose seeds are among the strongest drug they have ever taken. Not habit forming.

Salvia - Smoking large doses of extracted salvia forces reality to the wayside, regardless of surroundings. The experience doesn't last long, but hallucinations are possible. Illegal in some states. Not habit forming.

Ayahuasca - Strong psychedelic drink that contains DMT. The plants that ayahuasca is made from are legal in the USA and most other countries, but in the USA ingesting ayahuasca is illegal because of the DMT content. Very potent, peak effects last 2-6 hours. Not habit forming.

Trichocereus Cacti - Some species of cacti in the Trichocereus genus contain mescaline. These types of cacti are legal in the USA and most other countries, but in the USA ingesting them for the mescaline they contain is illegal. Mescaline is not not habit forming.
