Influence Lsd facts
While investigating facts about Influence Lsd, I found out little known, but curios details like:
LSD causes the regions in the brain involved in introspection and the regions involved in sensory perception of the outside world to communicate with each other more intensely than usual, which is why people tend to feel a sense of oneness with the universe while under its influence.
Ken Kesey (Author of *One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest*) volunteered for MKUltra experiments involving LSD and other psychedelic drugs as a student, and inspired him to promote the drug outside of the experiments, which influenced the early development of hippie culture.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 9 of the best facts about Influence Lsd I managed to collect.
