change.org/p/ban-alcohol-… Tragic story. There’s paltry regulation on alcohol sales in delivery apps like Uber Eats, Deliveroo, and Just Eat. No safeguarding. No meaningful purchase limits, no flagging of extreme repeat orders. Vulnerable users can have alcohol delivered to their door 24/7. Even gambling apps have these kinds of safeguards! Why don’t delivery apps?

Clinicians: UCL and Drug Science invite you to contribute to a controlled exploration of MDMA’s psychological effects. Eligible participants will undergo two medically supervised sessions at UCL. This work aims to build a psychoanalytically grounded model of its therapeutic action. Join us. mdma-in-psychotherapists.com/?mc_cid=65ea82…

What does safe psychedelic therapy actually look like in practice? @ProfDavidNutt speaks to writer Erica Rex about her experiences with psychedelic-assisted therapy, the safeguards these treatments require, and how mental health care could better address complex trauma.

Sentia Gold is excellent! You get the warmer bodily feeling and de-tensing that comes with GABA activation, but without the intoxication. There's now a viable alcohol substitute on the market. Definitely recommended!

really sad to see the Labour Party stooping to new low w their scaremongering about The Greens approach to drug harm reduction - accusing them of encouraging drug use - shameful

It’s exciting to see functional drinks gaining momentum. For years I’ve studied alcohol’s effects on the brain, now we’re applying that science to build better alternatives. I'm delighted that the first functional cider is now available - so far just in the UK! sentiaspirits.com/products/gaba-…

A fantastic piece from @HelenaSips on Functional Drinks. Functional drinks are becoming a fast-growing part of the beverage industry, driven by people looking for more from what they drink, beyond flavour or alcohol content. We're proud to be a part of this fast developing space. helenasips.com/p/what-are-fun…
