Definición

  • Peyote (Lophophora williamsii) Cactaceae is a spineless cactus that is native to central and northern Mexico and to the Rio Grande Valley of the southwestern United States, and that is used in ceremony among participants of the Native American Church. When prepared correctly, peyote is a hallucinogenic drug, or a chemical substance that distorts the senses and produces perceptions of experiences that depart from reality.
