Do NOT take the organic brown acid.
If you plan to attend a homeopathic conference in Germany, it's a good idea to be very, very clear on
what you are taking:
An alternative medicine conference has ended in chaos in Germany after dozens of delegates took a LSD-like drug and started suffering from hallucinations.
Broadcaster NDR described the 29 men and women “staggering around, rolling in a meadow, talking gibberish and suffering severe cramps”.
Once at the hospital, they all tested positive for the same drug—an obscure LSD-like drug called Aquarust.
Police are still trying to figure out if they took the drug knowingly. Either way, their bad trip lasted for days:
No one recovered sufficiently to be interviewed by police until Monday, a spokesperson said.
Torsten Passie, a member of the German government’s expert commission for narcotics, told NDR: “It must have been a multiple overdose. That does not support the view that the people concerned took the hallucinogen knowingly.
The Association of German Healing Practitioners says the "obscure conference" is giving them a bad name:
“Unfortunately, the conference in Handeloh has severely damaged the image of the alternative medicine profession…and we have clarified that such acts are not in the spirit of natural therapy, and contradict our values both morally and legally.
No arrests have been made thus far, but the investigation is ongoing. Police are looking into whether the participants knowingly took it or whether they were drugged. Approximately 150 medical personnel were called to treat attendees.
