Today's guest, Dr. Ben Malcolm, a seasoned pharmacologist, shares about his personal and professional experiences with an array of psychoactive drugs, including psilocybin, cannabis, ketamine, Ibogaine, DMT and MDMA. He characterizes 'good drugs' as those that foster enhanced well-being and circumvent addiction.  Malcolm delves into the subject of psychedelics during the critical periods of pregnancy and breastfeeding, suggesting a favorable risk profile, while also highlighting that from the standpoint of peer reviewed scientific study, safety remains unconfirmed. He also candidly shares his own spiritual shift following a DMT experience and his subsequent founding of Spirit Pharmacist, his online membership which provides psychedelic education.
