1 lb of Syrian Rue Seed (Peganum Harmala)

Peganum harmala, commonly called wild rue, Syrian rue, African rue, esfand or harmel, (among other similar pronunciations and spellings), is a perennial, herbaceous plant, with a woody underground root-stock, of the familyNitrariaceae, usually growing in saline soils in temperate desert and Mediterranean regions. Its common English-language name came about because of a resemblance to rue (which is not related). Because eating it can cause livestock to sicken or die, it is considered a noxious weed in a number of countries. It has become an invasive species in some regions of the western USA. The plant is popular in Middle Eastern and north African folk medicine. The seeds contain a Monoamine oxidase inhibitorand are commonly used in tandem with recreational psychedelic drugs.
