And while we have talked tightly about

Ibogaine's impact on substance dependency and upon the wounds of war, our ambassadors reflect essentially the universal human condition and the way in which individuals who have tried every way to overcome various forms of trauma and debility find as the last step

a redemptive restoration through Ibogaine treatment.

It is not for everybody.

It should not be a first resort.

It is an exceptionally powerful medication that comes with a series of side effects that are highly unpleasant, as you previously mentioned.

One of the selling points, ironically, in the Texas legislature was to say, you know, if your idea of a good time is being in a state of semi-paralysis for 12 to 16 hours and throwing up continuously through the process, you're going to have a real good time.

And if there is the equivalent of being brought to the judgment throne of God on this side of life, it is an Ibogaine experience.

That seemed to motivate a lot of support, especially for those who subscribe to puritanical notions of punishment for wrongdoing.

That's not what I'm here to advocate, but certainly.

It is not fun.

But what we know is that, for instance, we have two fashion model twins whose father sexually abused them for a decade.

And the results of that horrific experience that they shared produced all kinds of psychological maladies that included

an eating disorder for one, persistent neuroses in the other.

They tried every form of talk therapy.

They tried every psychotherapy modality known to try to overcome that.

And it was Ibogaine that restored their lives and their capacity to enjoy the life that God has given them.

We have first responders who are emerging in numbers.

One who is a firefighter from Oklahoma who was demoted because of decades of alcoholism.

His life has been restored by Ibogaine and he's back working full time.
