Healthy Highs

If you want to stay on the safe side of the law but get high and enjoy yourself at the same time, there are a number of options to choose from.  The most common is alcohol, of course, but increasingly people are becoming aware of the health problems excessive drinking can cause.

There are several healthy alternatives that are becoming increasingly popular as the equipment and herbs are becoming more widely available at more affordable prices, especially over the internet.

Short of going the route of partly natural but definitely toxic hard drugs and risking your liberty as well as your sanity for the sake of a quick high, you can opt for the perfectly legal herbal mixtures now available, together with the equipment for safely inhaling their smoke or vapour.

Vaporisers are a good example of a healthy way of getting high, and as well as a decent kick you will know that you are inhaling a pure vapour produced from heating natural plant products in the safest possible way.  In fact some of the more sophisticated vaporisers are now commonly used in aromatherapy to induce calm and relaxation in patients.

Bongs are simpler and more traditional pieces of kit that use water to filter out toxins from smoke and can even be used with tobacco.

It seems that with modern vaporisers, bongs and other variations on traditional equipment we have come full circle and are using new technologies to deliver the pleasant and life-affirming highs that our ancestors in their unspoilt and uncomplicated state took for granted.

The Science Behind Legal Highs

Legal highs have been around in one form or another for hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years, and have always been especially popular in Eastern cultures.  It is in recent years that these herbal or chemical substances, which are not outlawed but which create the same effects as Class A drugs, have found popularity and media attention in the West.  However, most people have a serious lack of knowledge about legal highs.  Here are a few things you need to know.

Legal highs work to create a ‘high’, or a sense of euphoria or deep relaxation.  They are effective because the substances in the legal highs work on the body’s cell receptors to stimulate them.  Each receptor in the body is designed to be receptive to a substance your body creates.  If you replace your body’s substances with legal highs, or illegal substances, you impair your body’s own chance to make this substance, and that his how you become addicted; however, this risk is smaller with legal highs.

Legal highs work in the same way as your body does.  They stimulate the pleasure hormones which your body creates naturally.  That can give you a happier perception of reality and a greater feeling of peace, tranquillity and even joy.  All legal highs work slightly differently.  You can cut down on the side effects you experience by sticking to legal highs made of all herbal products and by checking that the ones you use contain no substances to which you have a known allergy.

History of Legal Highs

Legal highs began to become really popular with the rapid growth of the internet.  Before that, legal highs were available if you knew people who personally grew a few herbs that were used to produce a minor feeling of euphoria or relaxation.  The science of legal highs has progressed a lot since then and produced two families of legal highs: ethno-botanicals, which are natural plants producing these narcotic effects, and chemicals which research scientists played around with to create products that give you a feeling of euphoria, increased energy or deep relaxation.

A lot of the drugs that were available legally in those early days have now been banned due to concerns about their side-effects.  In their place came a couple of main legal highs.  Largely, these were sold as mysterious powders in unmarked bags.  The control of what was in the powders was limited.

Soon, though, that changed when legal highs began to be sold in capsules, stored in packets, through reputable stores.  Caffeine tablets went on open sale on the high street.

In the first years of the 21st century, bongs – or water pipes as they are more formally called – have become the method of choice of ingesting legal highs for many people.  Legal highs consisting of plants and organic material are increasing in popularity among a wide range of people, not just clubbers and students.  These latest legal highs are inhaled through a bong or vaporizer and provide a sense of euphoria or extreme relaxation that can be achieved in no other legal way.

Happy Herbal Highs

The term ‘legal highs’ refers to a whole raft of different compounds,  most of them herbal but some man-made chemicals, which exploit a small legal loophole in the drugs laws in many countries.  These legal highs exist in a ‘grey area’ of the legal system.  Many other substances producing the same physical and emotional effects have been outlawed and this position changes all the time, but some of these compounds remain legal and freely available.

Not all legal highs belong to the same family of herbs, so you need to take care that you know what you are taking.  ‘Legal highs’ is a popular cultural tag applied to substances which create either feelings of euphoria or a mellow, hypnotic trance-like relaxation.  Which legal high you will want to choose will depend on the effect you want to achieve.

Dance culture is on the increase in Europe and the US once more, and this is why experts are predicting a massive increase in the use of legal highs.  They have always been more prevalent on the dance and club scene, although they are popular at music festivals too.

You need to buy your legal highs from well respected ‘head shops’ or reputable online vendors.  Here you will find a wide range of herbal highs, bongs and vaporizers available.  You can tell the quality of the head shop or online outlet by the quality of information it offers about the different legal highs.  A reputable retailer should be able to provide detailed information about the effects you can expect from a specific legal high.

Clubbers Jump at the Chance of Legal Highs

Legal highs are chemical or herbal compounds which produce euphoria or deep relaxation, and are very popular in clubs.  These legal high are easily available in shops and on the internet.  They come in pill form or in a form which is smoked through bongs or water pipes.  They are said to offer a safer, less contaminated alternative to illegal drugs and, of course, you cannot be arrested and convicted for possessing them and using them, although different legal highs are being reclassified all the time.

Many people who have tried the legal highs are surprised by the potency of some of the most popular brands.  These stimulants are on sale from various so-called ‘headshops’ and online outlets.  These outlets claim to produce a range of pep pills and smoking mixes for bongs that can produce many different and subtle variations when it comes to effect.  These range from a mellow, giggly feeling to a full-on ‘trip’ as one might expect from illegal drugs, but without the nasty side-effects or legal connotations.

Grey Market

Legal highs are a range of, up to now, relatively unknown stimulant drugs.  They are appearing on what has been termed the ‘grey market’, which is an area which is not illegal but is on the fringe of being so.  More legal highs are outlawed regularly as more about them becomes known.

However, for now, back-room chemists are exploiting the legal loophole which allows them to synthesise chemicals and herbal products to produce these legal highs much faster than they can be made illegal by the due process of legislators.

Side Effects

One reason there is this ‘grey market’ of currently legal highs is that they have fewer harmful side effects than illegal drugs.  Legal high users might expect restlessness, a dry mouth and a hangover-like headache.  The legality of each legal high differs between countries and changes over time, so you need to check the current legal position of any substance you wish to use.

Popular Legal Highs

There are many reasons why legal highs have become so popular with the younger generation.  They are, of course, not illegal and so you will not get in trouble with the police for using them.  They are also not picked up by the home drug testing kits that some employers use as a way of monitoring their workers.

These legal highs offer the same kind of euphoria or deep relaxation as potent illegal drugs; hence their popularity.  However, they are made from all natural substances such as herbs and spices.  Thus, they do not carry with them the same kind of health risks as illegal drugs.  There are also fewer nasty side effects when you come down from legal highs.

Some legal highs are advertised as mimicking the effects of illegal substances.  However, smoking a bong to get a legal high usually gives one a mellow, smooth elevation of mood.  Blue lotus and red clover are popular herbal inclusions in these legal high mixes for bongs.  They make you feel relaxed, happy and also heighten your senses.

Some other legal highs are not used with bongs at all, but rather come in the form of energy pills.  These legal highs give a sudden burst of energy which lasts for a long time.  White willow bark and cola nut are popular inclusions in this type of legal high.  So, whether you seek a quick euphoric state or a long lasting state of relaxation, you can find a legal high that works for you and provides the feeling that you are looking for.

View the Original article

Legal Highs for Your Next Party

Legal highs can be enjoyed as a solo event, a party for two or as a boost to make a social gathering a much talked about occasion.  If you are planning a party and want to make sure that everyone has a really fantastic time, there is a whole load of products that you can buy to get the fun underway.

Decide the mood for your party, then get online and buy some social tonics.  Before you start flashing the credit card, do check that all the people invited to your party are happy to participate.  You don’t want the party to finish before it begins because of a disapproving few.

You can choose pill and potion stimulants, powders that will make the world a more colourful place, and pills that will bring you down when the party is over. 

You can buy a selection of smoking mixtures and have a bong or hookah pipe where guests can enjoy a puff of, for example, Mellow Yellow, designed to put everyone in a fabulous mood.  If you have a multi-pipe hookah, then use that.  You and your guests can then enjoy a truly social experience.

If mellow isn’t the party atmosphere that you’d intended, get some Red Ball, a blend that will have your guests dancing all night.  A smoking blend such as Amsterdam Gold will add a slight buzz to your party, while Chill will have everyone in a very serene state.

Health Risks of Legal Highs

Legal highs are coming more and more under the microscope as government and health officials work together to impose a temporary ban on these substances.  Although legal, it is thought that some legal highs contain illegal substances.  It is important, if you buy a legal high, that you know exactly what you are buying.

Even though legal highs are made from herbs and plants, that does not always equate with safe.  Many plants are poisonous or have properties that can have an adverse effect on some people.  Just like prescription medicines some people have an allergy or adverse reaction when taking some legal highs.

Many of the substances found in herbal highs have never been tested to show that they do not possess any potential threat to health.  Mixing the herbal high with alcohol or other herbal substances could be creating a concoction that can create a huge risk to you, including death.

Some of the conditions that have been experienced by legal high users include paranoia, seizures, coma and death.  People have also experienced drowsiness and loss of inhibitions.

If you do take legal highs, the effect of the herbal pill or smoke should wear off after a few days.  Keep taking lots of exercise in fresh air and drink lots of water.  If you find that you take a legal high and suffer an adverse reaction, or you experience negative problems a few days after taking them – go to your GP as soon as possible and get the situation checked out.

Using Bongs for Legal Highs

The term “bong” tends to conjure images of stoned undergraduates, laughing gormlessly and talking drug induced claptrap. But bongs aren’t exclusively for the use of illegal drugs – you can experience perfectly legal highs by using them.

The principal behind them is simple: fumes are inhaled only after they have passed through a vessel of water, a process which is believed to enhance the smoothness of the flavour and experience of smoking, much more so than, say, using a traditional pipe.  So, completely legal substances such as tobacco can be passed through a bong.

The water cools the fumes and partially filters them as they pass through it, absorbing some of the more toxic substances before the burned gases reach the smoker’s mouth and lungs (other liquids besides water can be used).  It would, however, be a mistake to conclude that smoking with a bong is a risk-free business: it does not make smoking tobacco, for instance, safe – it merely cools the smoke and removes some, not all, of the toxins.

Because the principal is so simple, making bongs depends entirely on the creativity and ingenuity of the individual who wants to try the experience out.  If cash-strapped students can fabricate them at the drop of a hat, anyone can.  Generally speaking, though, most people tend to buy them ready-made just for convenience.  They vary from exquisitely well-crafted and elegant hand-blown glass water pipes (although these tend to be on the expensive side) to functional, acrylic mass-produced versions and relatively cheap “travel” bongs.

Vaporizers – a great way to experience your herbal highs

A vaporizer is an item used to extract ingredients from various kinds of plant material, including tobacco and other herbs that can be used to create legal highs. Vaporizers help the active ingredients in the herbs to heat up to such an extent that they come off as vapour, which can then be either directly inhaled via a hose or pipe, or collected in some kind of container, such as a jar.

They require less plant substance to achieve the same result as smoking, and the vaporizer produces little to no smoke. This eliminates the dangers of secondhand smoking (should the substance be tobacco) while even cutting down on and often removing the elements that cause harmful effects to the user. Vaporizers are not only used by those wishing to get high; they have been known to be used by chefs who use them to release flavours from various herbs and spices that would otherwise remain hidden. 

Vaporizers come in many different forms. In addition to the ‘normal’ vaporizer, there are also handheld vaporizers, which are very compact and easy to use, and in many cases do not even require electricity or batteries to work. They are also relatively cheap vaporizers, particularly compared to the more modern digital vaporizer.

Another popular form of vaporizer is known as the volcano vaporizer. This was designed by a German company and actually won the 2003 Dr. Rudolf Eberle Prize for outstanding technical design and innovation. It is believed to be the single best vaporizer available today. 

Vaporizers are generally regarded as a much healthier way of inhaling than bongs and most other methods, because it reduces the carcinogenic effect to almost nothing, while maintaining the desired effect.

Police Ban Legal Highs at Bestival

11 September 201070 viewsNo Comment

People attending this year’s Bestival will be denied entry to the event if they try to bring legal highs onto the site, said the organisers. Any person found to be carrying a prohibited substance will be ejected if they refuse to give up the material to security staff.

Hampshire Constabulary police officers will be positioned at Bestival entrance gates to search anyone suspected of carrying drugs. They will provide amnesty bins so anyone can voluntarily surrender any controlled substances before they enter the site. Any person who is arrested on suspicion of possessing illegal drugs will not be permitted to enter the Bestival. What happens to people found with legal drugs is unclear.

Dr. Jenifer Smith, NHS Chief Medical Advisor, said, “We have had a large number of people in our Emergency Department who have taken legal highs such Vanilla Sky, NRG-1 and Ivory Wave. Our medical staff is not familiar with these substances, which can have unpredictable results and may result in long term mental and physical problems.”

Police officers will patrol on cycle and foot to prevent crime and reassure the public. The police will distribute crime prevention lanyards to protect personal possessions, such as wallets and mobile phones.

Alcohol, which is known to cause long-term physical and health problems, will be sold at the event. However, the amount of alcohol that can be brought in by festival goers is limited.

Inspector Terry Clawson, Hampshire Constabulary, said, “We want everyone to enjoy Bestival, and we will control drug use, excessive alcohol consumption and crime. Our officers have years of experience, and we will respond quickly to any problems.”
