Paracelsus and the Food of the Gods, Et Cetera

i want to start with a quote from an alchemy professor. He says paracelsus was not overtly psychidelic in the sense of a pharmicologically based about alchemy. Only when you get to the very last adumbrations out of the alchemaical impulse do you get use of opium. Paracelsus is considered one of the sort of grand daddies of alchemy. And he made a number of contributions to modern medical science.
